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. To learn more about this variety, see our red maca guide.
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.

Red Maca Root
I bought this as a post-menopausal woman to help boost bone density. Not certain how to know for certain if the Red Mac Root actually helps, but I am committed to finishing at least one bag. I have been mixing 1/2 to 1 tsp into morning tea or coffee....the flavor blends better with my lemon ginger tea. The powder does not dissolve in hot tea, it forms a suspension. Stirring the tea before drinking blends the powder better, but if left sitting it will form a "sludge" at the bottom of the cup. Experimenting to possibly help bone density, so uncertain if I will continue beyond the one bag.

Red maca root powder (raw)
I love everything about this product... the taste, smell, nutrient content, healing properties. I love that The Maca Team ensures that the Peruvian Farmers are respected and benefit from this operation rather than being taken advantage of. That had the most influence on getting me to try the product in the first place. As a Covid long-hauler of over two years, with GI problems and other symptoms, I find this product soothing and satiating when mixed with protein powder and milk. It gives it a bit of a malted taste which I love. I believe my over-all symptoms have improved along with being able to gain some of the weight back. Thank you, Maca Team, for doing what you do.

Menopause
I believe the hot flushes disappeared because of this product, they are gone!! I am not sure if its mental or what, but since I started taking this product, I don't experience hot flushes anymore!!! I don't have those sweaty uncomfortable nights anymore. I can sleep well and have no problems with insomnia. I can even take naps like a teenager :). I think it has to be with this red Maca intake and of course I do my part exercising since I have more energy as well. I really recommend this product. It is working for me!

Life changing
This could be a long review or a short one. So the short version first. 1. This Maca and the people of this company are AMAZING!! Now the long version... 2. I have been purchasing Maca from the Maca Team for about a year now. Last year my husband's PSA levels were at a concerning level and during the night he would wake upwards of 10 times a night to pee. The Dr wanted to start running more tests for Prostate Cancer and other nastiness. I had another plan in mind. "Disclaimer - I am not a Dr. This review is based solely on my family's personal experience. Maca came up in my research as being " potentially " helpful for prostate health. There were no real concerning side effects. So I placed an order. My husband has a powerhouse smoothie every morning so we started adding 2tsp of Maca to that drink. We eventually increased it to a total of 4 tsp a day. Immediately he woke up less in the night. Once we increases it to 4 tsp he was only waking 1-2 times a night. This in of itself was worth the money. His PSA results 10 months later were 0. The Dr was stunned and wanted to know what we had done. I told her "my Maca Team fixed him right up". So from the bottom of my heart - Thank You!! 3. A little about integrity now. Last month I placed an order. Shipping was added. I didn't think anything of it because inflation is hitting everything hard. A few days later I received an email notifying me that I had mistakenly been overcharged for shipping and the overage was being refunded to me. They didn't have to do that. I never would have noticed. BUT they did. Integrity is at the top of my list of redeeming qualities in a person and company. I am forever a loyal customer just for that alone.

Great product!
This red maca is top quality! Taking it daily in my coffee, it worked quickly to balance my hormones. Love this stuff! Would love it if y’all sold out of the shop. I literally live half a mile from ya. Paying to ship down the road made me grumble.

hormones
I have been taking the red maca root powder daily for years. There have been times when I stopped taking it for a few months but I went back on because I get very bad vaginal dryness/soreness/itching if I do not take it. So it is doing something very good for my female hormones and I can't be without it. I am now 53 years old and going through menopause. I take 1 Tbsp every morning in my tea. After all these years of benefitting from it I thought I should write a review and say a big thank you to the Maca Team for such a superior product that I wouldn't be without.

So far so good
I have been drinking the red Maca powder for about a month and I think it’s working! I definitely feel more awake than usual and a little happier. I still think it’s not been long enough for me to fully review this product as I would like to go another couple months before my final judgment
