Organic Peruvian Yellow Maca Powder (Gelatinised)
Maca or Peruvian Ginseng has been consumed for ages in the central region of the Andes and has been considered as a gift from the gods. Maca can adapt to a field of its own and can grow in low temperatures, enduring the difficult weather of the Andes. The Incas recognised its benefits and used it to improve their physical and mental performance.
This organic gelatinised maca powder is authentic Peruvian and loaded with health benefits. Moreover, the process of gelatinisation has made it more nutrient-dense and easily digestible and soluble.
Organic Peruvian Yellow Maca Powder (Gelatinised)
From Tree to You™
Sourced from Peru
Based on archaeological evidence, Maca originated natively and wildly in the high Andes mountains around Lake Chinchaycocha (a.k.a. Lake Junin) of Peru. Maca normally grows in rocky soils that is inhospitable to most other vegetation. Records indicate that Maca has been used as an adaptogen food by the Peruvians for 1500 years ago now. Our organic yellow maca powder is gelatinised and made from the roots of yellow maca sourced from the local farmers of Lake Junin.
What is gelatinised maca?
Gelatinised maca is not a gelatin, it is simply maca from which starch has been carefully removed through a process of gentle heat & pressure. Gelatinised maca is always the better choice as it is easier to digest, soluble in liquids and more nutrient dense per gram of maca powder.
Origin Matters
All maca agriculture in Peru is non-GMO and it is a heritage product of Peru, giving it the protection under Peruvian and international law as such. Studies indicate that maca grown in Peru provides the most potent health benefits.
Adaptogen Superfood
Maca root, like ginseng, is an adaptogen. Adaptogens are substances that raise the body's resistance to diseases through improvements in our physiological and mental health. Maca enables our bodies to balance and revive tired adrenal glands & other aspect of the hormonal system.
Dosage & Usage
Daily dosage of gelatinised yellow maca root powder is recommended at 3-9 grams (1-3 tsp). Yellow maca has a sweet, nutty taste with hints of butterscotch and can be easily consumed by blending in a smoothie, shakes, cereal, pancakes, desserts and more.
