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.

Suggested Use
Raw red maca powder is commonly used as a food. Many people begin with 3 grams daily (about 1 teaspoon) and gradually increase to 9 grams daily (about 3 teaspoons) based on preference and tolerance.

Very powerful, proceed with caution
I started taking Red Maca and used about two teaspoons per day in the morning for roughly three weeks. My experience taught me that maca is something to approach thoughtfully. It felt strong for me, and I think it is worth starting carefully and paying attention to how your body responds. During the time I used it, I felt some positive changes in my overall comfort and daily wellness. However, I also realized that two teaspoons may have been more than I personally needed, so I decided to take a break. After stopping, I felt more balanced again. In short, my experience is that maca may affect people differently. Some people may do well with a typical serving size, while others may prefer to start with a smaller amount. I will likely try it again in the future, but I would be more conservative and cautious with the serving size. From The Maca Team: Thanks for reaching out, Frankie. We appreciate your thoughtful feedback. Serving size can matter with maca, and people may respond differently based on their individual body and sensitivity. For anyone with specific health concerns, we recommend speaking with a qualified healthcare professional before adding any new dietary supplement. We’ve also reached out by email to offer additional support regarding serving size and general product use. Thank you again.

Organic raw red Maca
Love this product; will be buying again!

THE BEST MACA!
I've tried quite a few different brands and types of maca, and this red maca root powder from The Maca Team is the absolute best. Not only does it add a delicious roasty nutty flavor to hot chocolate, yogurt, and smoothies, but the quality is unlike any maca I have ever experienced. The website made it easy for me to choose the type of maca best suited for my needs, and I am so happy to support a small business whose values align with mine. I will not purchase maca from any other brand moving forward.

Red Raw Maca!
I absolutely love this Maca. It's smooth and, personally, I find the taste and texture great. I have it in my morning smoothie and feel energized for hours. I've also stirred it in sprouted oatmeal and coconut yogurt. Delish!

The delivery of the product was unsatisfactory.
The service provider used to deliver the product left it at the wrong property.

Delicious and nutritious!
I love The Maca Team's maca powder. I'm currently taking the red maca root for female hormone support. I enjoy the flavor in my daily smoothie, and it feels good knowing I am supporting my overall health.

Changed my experience
I love this product. My hormonal symptoms of perimenopause seem more in control when I'm taking my Maca from The Maca Team. The product is wonderful. And the process is great. Thank you!

Unable to use
I was very excited to try this product. Unfortunately, it did not agree with my stomach at all and ended up getting nausea and vomiting and have not been able to use it again after that first try. Unfortunately with the policy being that I’m unable to return after the products been opened, I am left with a full bag that I won’t be using. This policy seems a little unfair considering I couldn’t give it a try without opening. Disappointed. HI Ali, We've reached out to replace with some gelatinized maca. It has been pre-cooked and is easier to digest. Most people do not have issues with it. But if someone does they can take a maca extract and avoid digestive issues altogether. Hope this helps somehow. - The Maca Team.
