Organic Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder

Organic Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder from The Maca Team
Organic Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder made from yellow, red and black Peruvian maca roots.

Our Organic Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder is made from a traditional blend of yellow, red and black maca roots grown in the high Andes of Peru. This blend contains approximately 40% yellow maca, 30% red maca and 30% black maca, bringing all three primary maca colors together in one product.

This pure gelatinized maca powder is certified organic, Fair Trade, non-GMO, vegan and gluten free. It contains no fillers, preservatives or unnecessary additives. The gelatinization process removes much of the maca root’s natural starch, creating a lower-starch maca powder that many people find easier to digest than raw maca.

  • Certified Organic
  • Fair Trade
  • Non-GMO
  • Vegan and Gluten Free
  • Made from 100% Peruvian maca root
  • 40% yellow, 30% red and 30% black maca
  • Gelatinized to remove much of the natural starch
  • No gelatin or animal ingredients
  • Traditionally grown near Junín, Peru
  • No fillers, preservatives or unnecessary additives

What Is Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder?

Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder is made from the three primary maca root colors: yellow, red and black. Rather than separating the colors into different products, this tri-color blend combines them into one maca powder.

Historically, maca roots in the Andes were often consumed together rather than separated by color. Our tri-color blend reflects that traditional approach by combining all three maca colors in one product.

What Does Tri-Color Maca Mean?

Tri-color maca means a blend of yellow, red and black maca roots. Our blend is approximately 40% yellow, 30% red and 30% black. This is also sometimes referred to as tri maca, triple maca or tri-color maca root powder.

If you prefer to compare a blended maca powder with single-color options, you can also explore our guides to yellow maca, red maca and black maca.

What Does Gelatinized Maca Mean?

Fresh yellow, red and black maca roots from Peru.

Gelatinized maca has been processed under controlled heat to reduce much of the root’s natural starch content. This creates a lower-starch gelatinized maca powder that many people find easier to digest than raw maca.

Despite the name, gelatinized maca contains no gelatin. No animal ingredients are added during the process. The term refers only to the way the maca root is prepared before it is milled into powder.

If you prefer a preparation that retains its naturally occurring starches, compare our Organic Raw Tri-Color Maca Powder.

Why Choose Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder?

This product is a practical choice for people who want all three maca colors in one powder rather than selecting a single maca color. It is also a good option for those who prefer a gelatinized preparation with much of the natural starch removed.

Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder has a mild, earthy and slightly malty flavor that blends well into smoothies, yogurt, oatmeal, plant milk and other recipes. Because it combines yellow, red and black maca in one product, it can also be a convenient and economical alternative to buying multiple single-color maca powders separately.

How to Use Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder

Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder can be mixed into smoothies, water, plant-based milk, yogurt, oatmeal and other foods or beverages. Its powdered format makes it easy to adjust the amount you use and incorporate maca into a daily routine.

  1. Chris (verified owner) –

    One of the best maca products I have had.

  2. Carolyn (verified owner) –

    I love that you can get all 3 varieties in one powder. It’s great! A fair price for a high quality maca root powder.

  3. Bryan Thompson (verified owner) –

    This is like the multi-vitamin version of Maca with the benefits of all three types. My stomach is happy that it is gelatinized. Winner all around.

  4. Joseph Velasco (verified owner) –

    Excellent product

  5. This stuff is great! (verified owner) –

    I’ve been having 4-6 tbsp of Tri Color Maca a day for the last month or more. It took about two weeks before I started to notice anything, but now I have a new level of sustained energy that I haven’t had in years (I’m 72). Get it!

  6. mark marshall (verified owner) –

    excellent product

  7. mark marshall (verified owner) –

    excellent product

  8. Cejja (verified owner) –

    I absolutely love this Tri Color Maca, and will NOT be without! The first time I took it, I immediately noticed the reduction in my hotflashes. Several months later, they are completely gone. Thank you, Maca Team for a superior product!

  9. Michelle Ralph (verified owner) –

    My husband and I love this Maca. Team Maca is a wonderful company to associate with. They are knowledgeable , friendly, supportive, and will help you customize your purchase to meet your goals.
    The product itself is delicious and deeply satisfying . You will sense a calmness as well as real energy to assist you in daily life. I even feel I am breathing more deeply. I tend to breathe shallow and with tight jaw , but the Maca has helped me deal with stress mindfully and effectively ??

  10. A W (verified owner) –

    This is my second time ordering from The Maca Team and I’ve been very satisfied with the tri-blend maca. I blend it in my smoothies so I can’t taste it, but I do love the smell. I’ve noticed that my hormones are more balanced – I’m less moody when I’m PMSing, and my libido is at a healthy level. I also think that the price is very reasonable.

  11. Chad M (verified owner) –

    This is not the first time buying this product, but this is the first time that I’ve had this problem. We have opened 1 bag so far, so not sure all the bags have this problem. The bag we opened has a lot of clumps. The clumps don’t break even in a shaker bottle with the wire ball inside. Not sure if the others have this issue, but I hope they don’t.

    Hi Chad: This is uncommon but does happen sometimes since maca powder is hydro-static. Please reach out to us and we can replace. Thanks – The Maca Team

  12. Victoria (verified owner) –

    I really, really, really, wanted this product to work for me. I bought this to try since I had previously tried a different brand and it upset my stomach. Sadly, this product did the same. About half way though my beverage, I could feel a chill come over me and my stomach started churning in a very concerning way. I barely had a tablespoon in my drink. I didn’t finish it but still had stomach pain and diarrhea for 24 hours.

    As far as using the product, the taste was strong and while not awful, it wasn’t pleasant either. While I recognize it’s exactly what it’s supposed to be, it was too strong for me and even if I didn’t have tummy issues, I wouldn’t have been able to use it as often as I had intended because of the taste.

    From The Maca Team: HI Victoria, this does happen to a small percentage of people, even with gelatinized products. If you still want to try maca, we suggest taking one of our liquid extracts. That won’t cause any stomach upset. Let us know if you have questions.

  13. Marcus V. (verified owner) –

    My main reason for taking this product was because my drive was low and I was having midlife male issues due to some of the meds i take. This stuff! My drive is doing wonderfully now and performance issues are a thing of the past for me!

  14. Susanne (verified owner) –

    I’m only in my third week of taking one tablespoon of Maca a day and already I’m seeing my hotflashes subsiding

  15. David Zuhars (verified owner) –

    Very happy with the product. The website made it easy to decide which was the right one for me. Fast delivery.

  16. Rachel (verified owner) –

    I’ve been super happy with the quality of this product! I also received it very quickly. The maca powder is fresh and flavorful. I mix 1-2 tsp in a cacao drink I make every morning. It tastes great and has seemed to help me with sustainable, non-caffiene, energy levels in the morning. It has also helped me feel more balanced hormone wise with less mental fog. I’ll totally repurchase from The Maca Team.

  17. hal alanna (verified owner) –

    Been loving this in my daily smoothies. I did a good amount of research prior to choosing which maca to buy and the maca team is amazing. No bs ingredients, love that this company is family owned, and actually love the flavour it adds. Only downside is that I am in Canada and the dollar conversion plus shipping is very expensive… there are definitely less expensive brands out there.. Will have to think about where to order next time… I did purchase the largest size so it will last me quite some time.

  18. Anonymous –

    good

  19. Katie Byrne (verified owner) –

    Now that I bought the HUGE bag of Maca Root, I really don’t think I’ll ever go a morning without it. If I want something cold, I put it in a blueberry, spinach and almond milk smoothie. If I want a hot drink, it goes right in my coffee. It’s got a wonderful malted caramel flavor to it. I highly recommend it.

  20. Dana LaFontsee (verified owner) –

    My functional medicine doc recommended The Maca Team Tri Color gelatinized to help me with hormone issues. I could not even tolerate 1/8 of a teaspoon! I got really bad jitters – it felt like all of my insides were shaking and my heart was pounding. It also made me bloated, even though the gelatinized version is supposed to be more easily digestible. I tried for about a week, thinking it would get used to it. Nope. My husband was interested in trying it, too, but 1/4 teaspoon caused his heart to race badly enough that he had to lie down in bed. I think it is strange that we both had such bad reactions. I’m angry that we lost not only money, but precious time while it was making us feel so crummy.

  21. Jeni Hogenson (verified owner) –

    Love the Maca scent, the improvement of my energy and how I feel!

  22. Rig (verified owner) –

    I enjoy the tri-color Maca powder and will continue to use it as long as it’s working for me.

  23. Anonymous (verified owner) –

    Wonderful quality. I’m addicted to the flavor alone, it’s the sweetest I’ve tried from anywhere <3

  24. Denise Wnukoski –

    I love the stuff my first time I saw maca was at a flea market in South Carolina while on vacation ,paid a big five bucks best five bucks I spent in many years . By the time I got home 5-6 days later my body totally detoxed and I was on my way to feeling better . Since then my blood pressure and heart rate has really improved . Along with mental , emotional and memory has improved . I have only been taking maca since may . So I highly recommend maca I use the heritage harvest blend so I and my husband will get all the benefits of maca .

  25. Kat –

    Overall it’s a great product, easy to use and mix in with your food or drink. I had heard about maca powder and was curious about it, and so far I’m pleased that, while it does add a flavor to my tea, it’s not one that’s unpalatable.

  26. Gary Herman –

    Overall the product tastes pretty good. I have progressed up to 1 tablespoon a day over the past 3 weeks. Unfortunately I haven’t noticed any difference with any of the effects of taking MACA. I would like to say that customer service is fantastic. Great to help with quick responses. Another thing to consider is that I have not tried any other MACA products. I am still excited to take this product and will continue to use it. Hopefully I can leave another review in a month (they mention it might take up to 6 weeks to see its benefit). I am also curious to try it in recipes but not sure how much I can increase over the recommended amount per day.

  27. Anonymous –

    Right now I am mixing a half scoop of Yellow and a half scoop of Red.

  28. Kylie –

    The ‘ORGANIC GELATINIZED PREMIUM RED MACA POWDER’ has a mild flavour and certainly is a premium product.
    The delivery was very prompt and well within the dates given. The only downside to ordering this product online to Australia was the postage cost. I was going to order multiple packets but it was going to apply the postage cost of $26.27 USD to each packet.

  29. jeff from SC –

    Been using Maca for a year or so. I usually mix a heaping spoon full of Black Maca with water first thing in the morning before I go to the gym. I find that Black Maca gives me more energy and stamina. I’m 57 years old, and can make guys half my age “fall out” trying to out lift or out pace me in the cross-fit class I take… If I ever skip a day taking Black Maca, I feel it… the “reserves” are not in my tank. The only reason I gave the Gelatinized Black Maca 4 stars vs 5. is I prefer the “earthy taste” of the raw black maca. Both varieties work well. Look at it as a “super food”, there is serious nutrition here. It works.

  30. Edward Putnam –

    I’ve been throwing this stuff in coffee and smoothies and it’s Great! Best maca on the market. Fast and friendly service.

  31. Wayne –

    Nice earthy taste and mixes well with water. Using 3-5 g a day and feel a boost in energy and subtle libido increase. No noticeable undesirable side effects. Prompt delivery too.

  32. Mike –

    Very fresh, the best maca I’ve used. Customer service is great and orders are filled quickly.

  33. Renee (verified owner) –

    Has a Mild flavor and gives me all day endurance. LOVE IT!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder?
Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder is made from a traditional blend of yellow, red and black Peruvian maca roots. Our blend contains approximately 40% yellow, 30% red and 30% black maca, which is then gelatinized to remove much of the root’s natural starch.

What does “tri-color” maca mean?
Tri-color maca combines the three primary maca root colors — yellow, red and black — in one powder. Traditionally, maca roots in the Andes were often consumed together rather than separated by color.

What is the blend of yellow, red and black maca in this powder?
Our Organic Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder contains approximately 40% yellow maca, 30% red maca and 30% black maca. It contains only Peruvian maca root with no fillers, additives or preservatives.

What does gelatinized maca mean?
Gelatinized maca has been processed under controlled heat to break down and remove much of the root’s natural starch. This creates a lower-starch maca powder that many people find easier to digest than raw maca.

Does gelatinized maca contain gelatin?
No. Despite the name, gelatinized maca contains no gelatin or animal ingredients. “Gelatinized” refers to the processing of the maca’s natural starch. The finished product remains completely plant-based and vegan.

How is gelatinized maca different from raw maca?
Raw maca retains its naturally occurring starches. Gelatinized maca is processed to remove much of that starch. Both are made from maca root, but they differ in how the root is prepared before being milled into powder.

Is gelatinized maca easier to digest than raw maca?
Because gelatinization removes much of maca’s natural starch, many people find gelatinized maca easier to digest than raw maca. If you prefer a traditional raw preparation, see our Organic Raw Tri-Color Maca Powder.

Who typically chooses Tri-Color Maca Powder?
Tri-Color Maca Powder is often chosen by people who want yellow, red and black maca together in one product rather than selecting a single maca color. The gelatinized preparation may also appeal to people who prefer a lower-starch form of maca.

How much Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder should I use?
Many people begin with about 1 teaspoon (3 g) daily and gradually increase to 1–3 teaspoons (3–9 g) daily based on preference. For more detailed guidance, visit our complete serving guidelines.

How should I use Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder?
Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder can be mixed into smoothies, water, plant-based milk, yogurt, oatmeal and other foods or beverages. For more ideas, visit our collection of maca recipes.

Is Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder raw?
No. Gelatinized maca is processed using controlled heat to reduce much of its natural starch content. If you specifically want an un-gelatinized preparation, choose our Organic Raw Tri-Color Maca Powder.

Is this Tri-Color Maca organic, vegan and non-GMO?
Yes. Our Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder is certified organic, Fair Trade, non-GMO, vegan and gluten free. It is made from 100% Peruvian maca root.

How should I store Gelatinized Tri-Color Maca Powder?
Store the powder in a sealed container or sealed bag away from direct sunlight, heat and excess humidity. When properly stored, it keeps well for up to approximately 24 months.
