Overview:
Our liquid red maca extract is made with 100% red maca roots along with vegetable glycerin. These 2 ingredients produce a potent extract that is easy to take with you on the go and very convenient to take. Red maca extract has a sweet concentrates and preserves the nutritive components of red maca root. It has a sweet, pleasant taste, is low on the glycemic index and is suitable for everyone.
The nutrients in red maca root are made more bio-available through the extraction process. This makes it easier for your body to absorb them.
Certified organic red maca chips from Peru
Both powders and extracts are made from red maca roots. While red maca powder is the most common form in which to take red maca root, red maca extract is the easiest. In order to get your maca serving with an extract all you need to do is place two droppersful of the liquid under your tongue for 30 seconds to 1 minute. On the other hand, taking powder requires that you mix it with a liquid or add it to another sort of recipe. Red maca extract is often more attractive to newcomers to maca and children due to its pleasant sweet taste.
In terms of benefits, we’ve seen both forms of red maca get excellent results. You can expect the same as long as you are taking an appropriate serving size consistently.
Red maca extract has the same overall benefits of red maca powder, chips or capsules. The major ones are:
Please note that results may vary from person to person.
Our red maca roots come from traditional and certified organic farms in the high Andes of Peru. The red roots are unique among maca varieties in several ways:
At The Maca Team, we are 100% focused and sharing high-quality Peruvian grown maca products with the world. Because of that we are able to offer the widest variety of maca products anywhere in addition to comprehensive information on our website.
In terms of our extracts, we’ve worked hard to create the ideal process for making them. We start with 100% whole red 
maca root chips. We use only the highest graded maca roots in producing these chips. Once chosen, these chips are processed with vegetable glycerin instead of alcohol in a 4 step process to isolate maca’s nutritional content. We’ve chosen glycerin because unlike alcohol it does not denature any of maca root’s constituents while at the same time preserving maca’s enzymes, polysaccharides and aromatics. The result is a sweet tasting liquid extract that anyone, including children and diabetics can use and benefit from. You should also know that we are the only company to carry all colors of maca in an extract form. Here’s a link to all of our maca root liquid extracts.
Here are a couple of comments from our customers (read more in the reviews below):
"Seriously, this stuff has changed my life. My moods are better, my anxiety is decreasing, and my energy is insane. The taste isn't TERRIBLE, but I chose the extract because it's fast acting. I put a few droppers full under my tongue first thing in the morning and I'm set for the day. Highly recommend!” – Leann
"I am SO beyond grateful for this stuff. I could cry from gratitude. It works so well and I'm only 3 weeks in. I feel happier, I get stressed less, and have way less depression. My libido has gone up and my hormones are doing better already. I used to get so sick and emotional days before my period and on it, and this round I cleaned the house and only cried once. I had energy. It's nuts how well this works. I can think clearer. I wish everyone had this product.!” - Thacia
Suggested Use:
1/4-1/2 teaspoon (2-4 droppersful) 3 times a day or as directed by your health care professional
Enjoy the day!

I shop around a lot for my supplements and health foods, and I have to say you guys at The Maca Team are light years ahead of anyone else selling maca out in the marketplace. Thanks for all you do!

Loving the red maca from themacateam. I can tell the difference from my usual store-bought brands. It really tastes so fresh and sweet compared to others. I really love this product. Thanks for sourcing it for us to enjoy

I LOVE Maca Team Maca...this was my first purchase with the Maca Team and I have no need to try any other Maca-producer. The Maca tastes fresh and flavorful, the Kilo bag is a great price, and I feel so much more at ease (Maca is such powerful medicine :) )

I take 24 products from five to six times a week to increase my well-being and sensual and sexual delights. ;D The Maca Team’s organic maca is one of them—nine grams in my smoothie, Monday to Saturday. The Maca Team is a small business run by a family who cares about its customers, its Peruvian maca growers, and the environment. It's vital to know the source of everything we put in our mouths. Physical and mental health are precious treasures. :D

This product is amazing! I have used other cheaper brands of white maca with fairly good results, but after trying the Maca Team maca, I noticed within two weeks all of my menopausal symptoms had completely vanished. Others described a bad taste and smell, but I have tried the black and the red and find them both to be mild tasting. I use a tablespoon in my daily smoothly

Maca first came to us by our vitamin supplier. Then we ordered from the Maca Team. Comparison? Think fire-fly, then think mid-day sun. At 76 and 73 years respectively, that is a big deal; and at comparable cost too. We never have we had such speedy delivery and the packaging is the strongest, most protective we've seen, ever, at all ... anywhere. Further, the Mrs. no longer takes hormone supplements. And Mr. scans the morning want ads for steady P/T work.

I had been using another brand of maca powder and decided to try The Maca Team's. The difference in freshness is night and day, and better tasting . I'm 6 foot 250 lbs. and take 4 teaspoons every day w/ my protein shake. Great energy boost and just feel great all day. I can tell a difference when I do not take it. best price that I have found {36oz}. I will be buying more as needed.

I've tried various maca brands over the last 20 years and The Maca Team brand is very special. There is definitely a difference when it comes to the quality and colors of the maca. This red maca does seem to nourish certain parts of my body while the black maca nourishes something else. I know I've been missing the nutrition these maca provide. I'm 75 years old and bodies wear out, but I'm finding I'm regaining a functioning body. How wonderful is this?!?!!!
By Janis Ihrig
I just wanted to thank you for your excellently constructed website. I am a physician and I recently started learning about Maca. I get a very good sense of it, and I expect I will try it out myself and possibly be recommending it to patients in the future. If so, your website will be the first place to send people. Thanks again.
By Adam Holt
Love the Maca team, In an earlier comment I said I was on the fence about where to buy Maca .Not anymore .You shouldn’t be either. The team has answered any questions I’ve had promptly. I feel like I’m dealing with friends, not some company far away out for my money only. The Maca is fresh, prices are good, the people are nice. If you’re on the fence, don’t be, you won’t be sorry.
By Bob
My Maca came in today and it has all the information on it! I must say this is the best tasting Maca I have tried!! Thank you again for a great product!! I will only order from you in future as well!
By Stormi Evans
First I would like to say I love this product. I was very skeptical about a natural product with so many benefits but this stuff really works. Second, I love this company. From the web site to the way they run their company this a top-notch team. I will be ordering from The Maca Team from now on. Great job guys keep doing what you are doing.
By Darren Rivers Sr.
We love this product. I own a store and work with clients holistically. We have recommended maca for years however, this is the highest quality product we have ever carried. I am proud to offer it in my store.
By Mellissa Gage, Infinity and Beyond
I am really happy that I chose the Maca Team, today you can find many distributors selling Maca powder, however quality of the powder is impossible to compare. Moreover, the results after 2 weeks I could feel. Before I was taking maca powder and I did not feel any changes. But since I started taking Maca from Maca Team the changes are incredible. So, I did a test.:) I gave the powder to my partner ... and after 2 weeks he was impressed and told me that he has more energy, feeling happy... Thank you The Maca Team!!!!
By Olga
I do want to say that I have done quite a bit of research on different companies that offer Maca and The Maca Team definitely is the most reputable. Thank you again for your kindness and professionalism :)
