Description
Raw Red Maca Root Powder, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO, Vegan and Raw
What Is Raw Red Maca Powder?
Raw red maca powder is made from dried red maca roots (Lepidium meyenii) grown in the high Andes of Peru. The roots are carefully dried and milled at low temperatures to preserve their natural composition. Red maca is one of the three major maca colors and is widely used as a traditional food ingredient in smoothies, drinks, and recipes.
Organic Raw Red Maca Powder Overview
Our organic raw red maca powder is made from 100% red maca roots grown and processed by an organic farming cooperative in and around Junín, Peru. We work only with producers who manage their land locally and are committed to traditional agriculture, organic growing practices, and careful handling from harvest through processing.
This raw red maca powder contains only pure red Peruvian maca root with no fillers, sweeteners, or additives. It is a popular choice for customers looking for a flavorful, versatile red maca root powder with a naturally slightly sweeter taste than many other maca powders.

Why Choose Raw Red Maca Powder?
Raw red maca powder is valued for its traditional use, naturally occurring nutrients, and easy culinary versatility. It contains carbohydrates, fiber, plant protein, amino acids, fatty acids, minerals, and distinctive maca compounds such as macamides and macaenes. Many people add organic red maca powder to smoothies, drinks, breakfast foods, and other recipes as part of a balanced daily diet.
Because red maca has a naturally milder, slightly sweeter taste, it is often chosen by customers who want a raw maca powder that blends well into everyday foods and beverages.
What Makes This Red Maca Different?
This product contains only pure raw red maca root powder from Peru. It is sourced from an organic farming cooperative, dried carefully at low temperatures, and packed without unnecessary ingredients. The result is a simple, traditional maca food in raw powdered form.
Red maca is one of the three major maca colors and has a nutritional profile similar to yellow and black maca. Many customers choose it for its flavor and its flexibility in smoothies, cereals, and recipes. To learn more, visit our guides on red maca and maca powder.
How to Use Raw Red Maca Powder
You can use raw red maca powder in several simple ways. Many people mix their daily serving into water, milk, or a plant-based beverage of choice. It also works well in smoothies, oatmeal, yogurt, and other everyday recipes. For more ideas, visit our collection of maca recipes.
If you enjoy smoothies, raw red maca powder pairs especially well with fruit-based recipes such as banana, strawberry, cacao, or berry blends. Its slightly sweeter taste makes it easy to incorporate into breakfast drinks and simple homemade recipes.
Raw maca retains its natural starches, which some customers specifically prefer. If you would rather use a maca product that has been traditionally heated for a different preparation style, see our gelatinized red maca. Another option is a red maca extract for customers looking for a more concentrated format.

Jury is still out give me more time but
Ordered the yellow and then the red Maca to help with hormonal imbalance. It doesn't taste very good, even when mixed in the recipes on the site, but from what I can tell it does what it says it will do. I bought the red because it says the taste is sweeter... But it's not. The benefits out-weigh the not so great taste so I will be continuing to take it and I'm even going to order some for my mom and my friend. Definitely recommend.

I love this product
I have been ordering this product for the past year now and I love the results. I decided to stop taking birth control pills (full of the synthetic hormones) last year and try a healthy alternative. The red maca powder has been a great product to help out in balancing my hormones and bring my body back to a normal cycle (reach homeostasis). I would recommend do start with the gelatinized maca for the beginning for people with more sensitive stomachs. Thank you very much to The Maca Team for providing this pure and amazing product. It changed my life forever.

Sweet Awakening with Red Maca
I tried yellow maca years ago not knowing about any other type. I can't really say it worked or not. However, I so look forward to the sweet taste of red maca with water first thing in the morning. I feel the super food tingle as it nourishes my body!! Really I love it! I am looking forward to my natural muscle bump and maca butt!! Yes both! As I have been intensely weight training for the last 6 months & searching for the best natural 'supplement' to my diet, I've found it. Thank you for your reasonable shipping fee and quick delivery. I will be ordering again soon.

Disappointed
I purchased the red maca powder to help with my constant hot flashes and night sweats. Finished the 8 oz package with no results and decided to keep trying and bought the bigger package. Still no results except uncomfortable bloating and weight gain. Going to take a week off and see if that will help. I was taking a day off once a week after using 3 tsp daily for six weeks. Not sure what else I can do.

Not Sure If it works
I bought this for hot flashes, but I've been taking it at least a month now and don't seem like its helping. Soon as I take it, sometimes I start flashing. I take 3 teaspoons as directed a day, could you offer some other suggestions that may help?

Successful Estrogen Option
I was having pretty severe hormonal issues. Doctor finally did the necessary blood work to determine my Estrogen levels were pretty much non-existent. She wanted to put me on Estrogen and Progesterone. I had read some pretty scary side effects of these synthetic drugs. Now considering I was already extremely emotional, I broke down in her office stating I didn't want to get cancer and asked if I could try Maca first. Fortunately she was open to this idea. Her only concern was that it would not be strong enough to help my severe symptoms of the blues, not sleeping at night and night sweats. After only two weeks of taking Red Maca I began to feel a little more like a normal person. After 6 weeks I felt like a new improved person. Just by getting more sleep at night has made a difference in my outlook on life and I'm having normal menstrual cycles. I believe in this product and I'm so thankful I found it just at the right time. It did take quite a while to get used to the taste of the Maca. I first mixed it (1 Tblsp) with Vanilla Soy Milk (since I need to increase my Estrogen) but now that I'm used to it I use regular Soy which cuts down on my sugar intake. I purchase the largest bag as it is the most economical and lasts me 3 months. A 3 month supply of this product is much cheaper than a one month supply of the prescription medicine the doctor wanted me to take and I feel in my heart it is much safer for me.
