Organic Raw Black Maca Capsules

Organic Raw Black Maca Capsules with water
Organic Raw Black Maca Capsules – 750 mg each, 200 capsules per bottle.

Our Organic Raw Black Maca Capsules contain pure black maca root powder grown in the high Andes of Peru. Each vegan capsule provides 750 mg of raw black maca in a convenient format that requires no measuring or mixing.

The maca is prepared using low-temperature processing and is not gelatinized, so it retains its naturally occurring starch. For people who specifically prefer black maca and a raw preparation, these capsules offer a simple way to make maca part of a daily routine.

  • Certified Organic black maca from Peru
  • Fair Trade
  • Non-GMO
  • Raw, non-gelatinized maca
  • Vegan vegetable-cellulose capsules

What Are Raw Black Maca Capsules?

Raw Black Maca Capsules contain black maca root (Lepidium meyenii) grown near Junín, Peru, one of the traditional maca-growing regions of the Andes.

The maca is low-temperature dehydrated and does not undergo the additional heat-and-pressure processing used to make gelatinized maca.

The finished product consists of 99% Raw Black Maca Root Powder and 1% vegetable cellulose from the vegan capsule shell. We use no fillers, binders or flow agents.

About Black Maca Root

Fresh black maca roots cut open on a board
Black maca is one of the three primary maca root colors traditionally grown in the Peruvian Andes.

Black maca is one of the three primary maca colors, along with yellow and red. Its roots naturally range from gray and dark purple tones to nearly black.

Maca has a long history of traditional use in the Andes as a nourishing food. Today, black maca is particularly popular among people who use maca as part of a daily routine focused on energy, stamina, focus, physical performance and overall vitality.

For a deeper look at this maca variety, visit our black maca guide.

What Does “Raw” Maca Mean?

Raw maca does not undergo the additional cooking step used in gelatinization. It retains its naturally occurring starch and is prepared using low-temperature processing.

Many people choose raw maca because they prefer a less-processed form of the root. Others prefer gelatinized maca because much of the natural starch has been removed.

Raw vs. Gelatinized Black Maca

Raw black maca retains its naturally occurring starch and does not undergo the additional heat-and-pressure step used in gelatinization.

Gelatinized black maca has much of that starch removed during processing. Some people who find raw maca difficult to digest prefer Gelatinized Black Maca Capsules.

Neither form is automatically better for everyone. The right choice generally depends on digestion, processing preference and how you prefer to use maca.

Why Choose Black Maca?

Black maca is a good option for people who specifically want one of maca’s individual root colors rather than a yellow, red or tri-color blend.

It is especially popular among people interested in supporting energy, stamina, focus, physical performance and overall vitality as part of a daily wellness routine.

If you are not sure whether black, red, yellow or tri-color maca is the best fit, our Which Maca Is Best? guide compares the available options.

Why Choose Raw Black Maca Capsules?

Capsules provide a convenient way to use black maca without measuring powder or mixing it into foods and beverages. Each capsule contains a consistent 750 mg amount of Raw Black Maca Root Powder.

They are also practical for travel, work and busy routines, and they allow you to use maca without tasting its naturally earthy flavor.

If you prefer adding maca directly to smoothies, beverages or recipes, we also offer Organic Raw Black Maca Powder.

Black Maca Capsules vs. Pills or Tablets

The terms “black maca pills” and “black maca capsules” are often used interchangeably, but this product is specifically a capsule.

Tablets are made by compressing ingredients into a solid form and may require binders or other ingredients to hold them together. Our capsules simply enclose the maca powder inside a plant-based vegetable-cellulose shell, allowing us to avoid unnecessary fillers and binders.

How to Use Raw Black Maca Capsules

Each capsule contains 750 mg of Raw Black Maca Root Powder.

Suggested use is 4–12 capsules daily. Best taken in the morning.For additional guidance, visit our maca dosage guide.

The Maca Team Difference

The Maca Team focuses exclusively on high-quality Peruvian maca. Our maca comes from farming cooperatives near Junín, Peru, one of the traditional growing regions for maca root.

Our Raw Black Maca Capsules are Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO, Raw and Vegan. They contain no fillers, flow agents or unnecessary additives.

You can learn more about our sourcing and production practices on our Our Standards page.

Our Company has specialized in maca and maca products for more than two decades.

Storage and Shelf Life

Keep the capsules in their sealed dark amber container and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and humidity. Shelf life is approximately 2 years when properly stored.

Suggested Use

Take 1–8 capsules daily, preferably in the morning with food.

  2. Michael Goings (verified owner) –

    Maca has improved my life. I feel more energetic, happier, and more libido than I have in a long time.

  3. Bob (verified owner) –

    Cause me stomach distress.

    Hi Bob, We’ve reached out on email to either exchange the product or give you tips to avoid stomach discomfort. You are likely one of those people sensitive to raw maca products. Therefore it’s best for you to use gelatinized (pre-cooked) maca only. Thanks. – The Maca Team

  4. Don Rogers (verified owner) –

    I like the product

  5. Matthew (verified owner) –

    This is an absolute cornerstone of my personal nutrition. I love the natural feeling of energy and vitality maca gives me! Capsule form makes it very easy to take regularly and travel with. You can still taste and smell the freshness!

  6. Robert (verified owner) –

    Great product

  7. George (verified owner) –

    If recommended quite a few times already and not one person has said it didn’t; actually, they’ve all said it worked and are using it now, and can’t do without it; these are friends that suffer from lack of energy. A lot more common than you think, also if it’s going to be a day of vigorous effort, then take it to last longer. It works in sports also, gives enormous more endurance, like a hormone, but natural. Can’t go wrong with this, so far.

  8. Ricardo Pereyra (verified owner) –

    Easy to swallow and noticed an improvement in my body

  9. Bruce Barthalow (verified owner) –

  12. Maria (verified owner) –

    Best product ever and this is the only place I get my Maca from. thank you Maca Team!!

  13. Shawn (verified owner) –

    Been taking it for psst few weeks since I bought it, I take 4 daily. I hope to see all the benefits soon, I also have black maca powder that I use in my smoothies couple times a week. Hopefully I see great results overtime. I cannot do 5 stars as yet until I see big difference overtime but it’s worth the buy.

  14. Anonymous (verified owner) –

    I bought this for the first time along with the red maca. The red maca has been great. However, this black maca made me very ill with GI upset; nausea and diarrhea. I believe there is an issue with the batch I received. I reached out to customer service for a refund or exchange, as I only tried it for two days and when I took them I became ill. They didn’t even apologize that I became ill, they just replied with: “items cannot be returned or exchanged that are opened”. You would think a red flag would go off for them knowing I only got sick on this black maca, but not the red that I ordered. It is what it is I guess.

    From The Maca Team: Sorry for your experience here. We’ve reached out via email to get this resolved for you.

    I take the four capsules as soon as I wake up. I’m also taking red maca powder. Overall I don’t really notice in a difference with anything physically but it’s only been a few weeks so maybe it takes a couple months to notice a different with health and mood.

    Yes, please give it some more time. Since it works with hormones, maca can take a couple of months to support the body in starting to achieve hormonal balance. – The Maca Team

    The black maca capsules like the other colors have the many benefits of maca. I like the raw air dried maca following traditions of the Peruvian people. Capsules are easy to take with no aftertaste.

  42. Aden Ellicott (verified owner) –

    iam sure its a really good product , but i must say after taking just 4 caps a day for 3 weeks 1/2 recommended dose i started to get a little heartburn and my nighttime acid reflux started to rear its unpleasant head once more (aint had that in 3 yrs ) so i went down to 2 caps in the am and still i had some heart burn & reflux ,i have took a 4 day break and will resume with 1 cap a day see how that goes , i always thought i had a strong stomache, but i guess not in this case ,
    would be nice if the macca team would send a free sample of the gelatinized black maca caps to see how this effects my digestive system but i like it as a supplement, feels great but the side effects are to strong on the raw

  43. Greg (verified owner) –

    Ive been taking black maca for over a year now. Its been good for energy, mood, and libido. It’s literally turned back the clock a few years in the bedroom, and my wife is sure happy I discovered this

  44. Bob (verified owner) –

    I love this product! Just 2 a day in the morning and feel like I’m 25 again. A few more in the afternoon and I’m unstoppable! Highly recommended.

  45. solare (verified owner) –

    it gives me lots of energy, before this I suffered from severe fatigue. These pills get me out of bed and have a full day. Try them, it is worth it, has worked for a friend also.

  46. Jorge J munoz (verified owner) –

    It’s good to know that it’s pure and clean and nothing added. This works fantastic!.

  47. Victoria Ray (verified owner) –

    This is my first time ordering & love the personal message that was included with my product. The pricing is very reasonable. And the best part of this experience is that the capsules doesn’t leave any type of residue in my mouth nor a nasty after taste.

  48. Jorge Murga-frassinetti (verified owner) –

    It does give me extra energy and perks me up without the added chemicals such as caffeine added to all vitamins, so far so good, takes a few days to work, or week or two, depends but works.

  49. Cecil Raleigh (verified owner) –

    I have not taken this product yet due to the fact that I started taking the red maca first and the red is having side effects.

  50. Rob Brewer (verified owner) –

    Hard to tell how well product works. Directions are to take 4-12 capsules, which are big, each day. Most I took was 7, for a few days. I did just hear that you need to take the product for at least a couple weeks before results, so maybe I’ll try that.

  51. Steve (verified owner) –

    I am a busy 36 year old man, with Family, Work and trying to live healthy. I have been taking Maca for about 2-3 weeks and have noticed a general feeling of more energy. I workout about 1-2 hours 6 days a week. I have noticed not getting as tired in the evenings and overall improvement in mood. Nothing dramatic but I feel like eating well and putting effort into your health is important. I would recommend the Maca Team’s products. My wife is also taking the Red Maca and she has noticed she is feeling better overall as well.

  52. Anthony Hurt (verified owner) –

    I am very pleased with the black maca I purchased, I find it a excellent product with great noticeable results

  65. Tara (verified owner) –

    I’ve been using Maca for several years and over the last 4 found the Maca Team to have the purest and most effective brand of Macca.
    I was taking the pharmaceutical Synthroid for Hypothyroidism. Afyer much research, I found that taking Macca Root daily replaced that medication. I started using the Red Macca and tried the Yellow and Black.
    All work amazing! I take the Black now because my job is very physical and it helps with strengthening muscle.
    The maximum dosage is 6 capsules per day however I got the results I needed with healthy T3/T4 levels with 3 capsuls a day.
    I love this product and look forward to venture out and use some of their other products like the powder and the liquid forms. Thank you so much and may your business flourish and grow perpetually.

  74. Anonymous (verified owner) –

    I am very impressed with this product. I am currently using 9 grams per day and have been doing so for about 40 days. It took about 30 days for me to feel the effects. Part of the reason for that could be my age, 54 years. What I noticed after 30 days was a significant increase in energy and memory retention. My work outs improved as I was able to train faster and actually get the muscle soreness that I got when I was younger. I would highly recommend this product to anyone. Just remember that it will take time. This is not a supplement or a drug, it is a food.

  75. Mishahah (verified owner) –

    I love this product very effective. I order the Maca to help with muscle building . I was very satisfied and will be ordering the red ones next. Out of all the Maca I have tried so far this brand is the best. I will be purchasing more.

  76. Rob M. (verified owner) –

    I’ve been taking Black Maca capsules for less than a month. Although I haven’t noticed all of the benefit claims, I have noticed a few.
    I feel less tired and fatigued at the end of the day, more energy and focus during the day. I tend to sweat quite a bit during normal activity. While bowling last week I realized I wasn’t sweating nor was I feeling overheated. I believe it’s directly related to the Maca. I plan on taking Maca for a few more months to see what else happens.

    The organic Maca pills really makes the difference. I have taken some other non organic Maca, and were not as effective as the Maca Team’s! I am taking 8 black maca pills first thing in every morning. Once finish one bottle , I take a five days break, then start a new one. From the moment opening the bottle, the organic good nature smell spills out right away. They keep me stay most productive during my 8 to 10 hours work day. Sex level boosts back to when I was in the twenties. I don’t have any side effects since I take it a year ago. I also recommended it to my coworker, who used to fell asleep during long hours driving. He stays awake ever since he started to take this Maca. Great products, great job the Maca Teams!

  80. Anonymous (verified owner) –

    The product is really effective and keep me energized throughout my workout in gym. Every time I need to take 6 capsule as per the instruction when I work out in gym. Is it to possible to have it in caplet form where more quantity of Maca powder can be compressed. In this form I may just take 2 caplets each time when I exercise.

  81. Andre (verified owner) –

    Heard so many great things about the Maca Team, did my research, and purchased the black powder for me and the red powder for my fiance. Both of us noticed significant changes in our libido! I noticed heightened sex drive shortly after consuming the powder in my protein shake, and my fiance would literally text me in the middle of the day telling me how her sex drive was going through the roof! Love the product!!
    I purchased the capsules after using all of the powder because the capsules are easier to consume with a very active lifestyle. I finished my first 200 count and have not noticed the same effect that I had with the powder just yet. The jury is still out.
    I will say that I absolutely love this product and the company! I tried the black Maca powder from The Vitamin Shoppe, and there is no comparison to the high quality that you get from the Maca Team! I will definitely be a loyal customer in the future!

    I cant really tell if i get any energy from the pills but anyways the only reason i got these is for muscle building, which is also hard to tell if they really work for that. But w/ all the benefits i continue to take maca. Only reason i gave it a 4 star is because its way to many pills to take at once! Really dislike that :/ might switch to powder i used to take powder but the flavor was really nasty :(

    I’ve gone through 2 of the 200ct 750mg capsules and I don’t see any significant improvements in my moods, libido, energy etc. I have been taking 8 capsules each morning and a few mornings even taken 12 capsules. I’ve been on them for at least 45 days now, I’m going to purchase another 200 count to give it at least a 60 days trial.

    I’ve been taking Macca capsules (usually 8, in the am) for a month. I’ve noticed an increase in focus and retention. My energy level is high to begin with (I follow a paleo lifestyle), but I think the Macca has slightly improved that as well… I’m a 52 year old man. I’m 6 foot & weigh 168 lbs.. I would recommend this product, as it is affordable.

    After using capsules for about 15 days, I have noticed very few effects if any. I do admit some rise in my energy/endurance rate, but overall, as far as libido boost, improvement of concentration and focus skills I’ve had little or no change at this point. I have been consistent in my daily dosage and plan to finish the remainder of my purchase. Hopefully I will see some positive effects soon.

    I’m presently ten pills away from finishing my first 200 count bottle. I’m not certain if extra was packed in, or if I started day one with six, but I can’t complain either way. Day 25 is almost upon me.

    I don’t normally take supplements. I take one normal multivitamin a day to help supplement my dietary choices as a mostly strict vegetarian. So, I’m going to be pretty straight forward in my observations.

    I’ll update this review, if possible, in the future.
    I take eight pills every single morning when I wake up before preparing to head out to my classroom for instruction. After a short period, it’s very clear that I’m receiving some small burst of energy where I might otherwise drag. I don’t normally eat in the morning, but the energy is sufficient enough to make me believe that just twenty calories didn’t make a difference. So that’s a perk.

    I didn’t buy the pills for my muscles or bones, and I’m not undergoing any particular building exercise routines, so I can’t comment on any notable progress there.

    Fertility wise, I’ve noticed a boom in terms of sperm quantity. Similarly, I’ve noticed a very minor impact on what I believe is my libido. The latter was my main reason for my purchase, and I aimed to complete a 50-day cycle to test my results. So, any results are minor here; any progress at all has made me hopeful.

    So, in short, I’ve mostly noted that black maca has had some minor effects. If I could realistically afford to consume 12 capsules worth of the pills, I believe I would see even more
    of a result. I think if you can work out post maca consumption in the morning that you’ll definitely see more results, regardless. I’m going to give it another twenty five days and see where I’m at.

    I’ll update my review in the future if possible.

    I’ve tried different sources for Black maca and yours is the best I’ve found. I’m reordering now..

  107. Philip Koh –

    Hi,
    Since receiving the products I’ve been taking 4 capsules (2 Blk @ 2 Red) a day first thing in the morning. About 3 – 4 hours later I would experience upset stomach with diarrhoea systoms. Lots of gas and soft watery stool. This would last for 2 – 3 hrs before clearing.
    But if I take them after breakfast or later meals I have no problem.
    Is this normal and what are the causes?
    Look forward to receiving your comments!

    Regards,

    Philip Koh

    I’ve been using maca for a little while now, but this is by far a premium product. I purchased this black maca as I wish to build my glutes to gain back some of my womanly curves. So far I have noticed some visable difference but the real difference is the stamina I’ve have during my workouts.
    Thanks Maca Team

    I have been taking 8 pills a day of the black maca for 3 weeks now and have noticed a decrease in a burning sensation in the area of my prostate. Other than that I have not noticed anything different except for a little increase in my sex drive. Find myself thinking about it a little more often. I will definitely re-order. I am a 64 yo male.

  115. Daisy –

    I haven’t made it a habit to take them so far. Because I don’t know if I want to take it before I work out or when I wake up. The times i have taken them I do feel more energy, concentration and improve in performance. I have given my boyfriend some and he said he felt alert and awake. I love everything about the product, shipping, info card, container, organic and vegan friendly. I love maca!

    I just started taking the Black Maca so not sure if it is really helping as of yet. I will try another month of the pills to see if it is helping.

    I’ve tried several different brands of maca, but none of them worked as well as The Maca Team. You can tell they did their homework and found a pure source of Maca. With so many supplement brands out there it is tough to find one that works, but The Maca Team did it. Thank you!

    I don’t know if it was the black maca or the supportive new girlfriend or both, but after a long period of less than scintillating (well, useless, really) bedroom performances I’ve been revived!

    I also feel strong in the lap pool.

    Before trying this maca by itself, I had experimented with some of the “miracle” performance enhancers, of which maca was one ingredient — none of which did anything for me but make my stomach upset. I would not recommend yohimbe.

    I have had no negative side effects whatsoever and now have a lot of faith in this organic black maca. I couldn’t ask for better results. I’m not sure it would work without the supportive partner, too, as I’m convinced a lot of my problem was psychological.

    So in an ideal world you want both. But on the supplement side, I don’t need anything more.

    After taking 2 whole bottles of this product, my husband has noticed an increase in energy and says he’s sleeping better! This is all great, yet we were hoping for a change in his libido. On the fence as to whether to keep taking….. Overall, seems to be a good product.

    The gelitanized pills made my husband dizzy and sick so Id not recommend, and this was very low dose. I should say though he is always extremely sensitive. I take the pink though and it has really eased my pms.

    As a former mail order health food business owner (back prior to the net) I have tried many products over the years. This product is now the basic addition to my daily nutritional intake due to it’s quality of performance. I take it with 2 tablespoons of raw organic apple cider vinegar in 8 ozs of purified water upon arising and personally recommend this as it works very well for me. I am 66 years of age and believe I will continue to enjoy the benefits of Maca for many years to come! G

    I actually purchased the Black Maca capsules for my son because he wanted to try the product.
    It seem to be working for him because I have not heard any complaints and he is taken them each day. Thank you for a wonderful product and thank you for so much information regarding this product.

    I purchased this maca for my husband to use as a fertility aid & after 18 months of trying to conceive I am now 4 weeks pregnant with our first child!!! I owe it all to maca :)

    I normally take the Black Maca power and many times over looked taking it because I did not like the taste of the power. But with the capsules I enjoy taking this product and never miss a day. Being over 50 this product helps with my health, sports and endurance. I highly recommend this product to others!

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Organic Raw Black Maca Capsules?
Our Organic Raw Black Maca Capsules contain black maca root powder grown in the Peruvian Andes and enclosed in a vegan vegetable-cellulose capsule. Each capsule contains 750 mg of Raw Black Maca Root Powder.

What does “raw” mean?
Raw maca does not undergo the additional heat-and-pressure processing used for gelatinized maca. It retains its naturally occurring starch and is prepared using low-temperature processing.

What makes black maca different from red and yellow maca?
Black, red and yellow are naturally occurring colors of maca root. Black maca is one of the three primary varieties traditionally grown in the Andes and is especially popular among people who choose maca as part of a routine focused on energy, stamina, focus and physical performance.

What are the potential benefits of black maca?
Black maca has a long history of traditional use in the Andes as a nourishing food. Today, many people use black maca as part of a daily wellness routine to support energy, stamina, focus, physical performance and overall vitality.

How are raw black maca capsules different from gelatinized black maca capsules?
Raw black maca retains its naturally occurring starch and does not undergo the additional heat-and-pressure step used in gelatinization. Gelatinized black maca has much of that starch removed during processing.

Is raw maca harder to digest?
Raw maca contains its naturally occurring starch, which some people find harder to digest. If you know you are sensitive to raw maca, you may prefer gelatinized black maca instead.

How much maca is in each capsule?
Each capsule contains 750 mg of Raw Black Maca Root Powder. Each bottle contains 200 capsules.

Are these capsules organic, vegan and non-GMO?
Yes. Our Raw Black Maca Capsules are Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO, Raw and Vegan. They contain no fillers, flow agents or unnecessary additives.

Can both women and men take black maca?
Yes. Black maca can be used by both women and men. Choosing black, red, yellow or tri-color maca generally comes down to personal goals, preferred processing method and individual preference rather than gender alone.

Are black maca pills and black maca capsules the same thing?
The terms “black maca pills” and “black maca capsules” are often used interchangeably, but this product is specifically a capsule. The maca powder is enclosed in a plant-based vegetable-cellulose shell rather than compressed into a tablet.

What is the difference between black maca capsules and tablets?
Capsules contain loose maca powder inside a plant-based shell. Tablets are compressed into a solid form and may require binders or other ingredients to hold them together. Our capsules allow us to provide maca powder without unnecessary binders or fillers.

Why choose capsules instead of powder?
Capsules provide a convenient, portable way to use maca without measuring or mixing powder. Each capsule contains a consistent 750 mg amount, while loose powder offers more flexibility for adding maca to smoothies, beverages and recipes.

Can I open the capsules and use the powder?
Yes. The powder inside the capsules can be added to smoothies, water, juice or other foods and beverages if you prefer not to swallow the capsules.

How should I take Raw Black Maca Capsules?
Take 1–8 capsules daily, preferably in the morning with food. For additional guidance, visit our maca dosage guide.

Where can I learn more about black maca?
Visit our black maca guide to learn more about black maca root, its traditional use and how it compares with other maca colors.
