Maca Powder comes from the Maca plant which is native to Peru. It is a cruciferous vegetable from the carrot, radish and parsnip family. It has been cultivated and used by the Peruvians for several thousand years, both as a foodstuff and also for its medicinal properties.

Maca contains high amounts of vitamins, minerals, enzymes and all the essential amino acids. Maca is an adaptogen so it "adapts" to your body's metabolism and can help you achieve your optimal level of health and energy.

Small-scale clinical trials performed in men have shown that maca extracts can heighten libido and improve semen quality.

It has been presumed that maca's hormone-normalizing effects may be due to the root's unique nutritional profile, which provides optimum levels of nutrients utilized by the body's endocrine system.

If you are not familiar with what Gelatinized maca is, Gelatinzed maca is maca made from the exact same raw organic Peruvian maca roots that our raw maca is made from which has undergone a special scientific process called "Gelatinization" that removes most of the starch content from the crushed maca roots in order to improve assimilation, make it easier to digest, and concentrate the active ingredients within.

This process does two things, first, it removes starch (which comprises 33% of the maca plant) and leaves behind the natural chemicals and nutrients, therefore concentrating the important elements of the maca root. It also frees the macaenes and macatides from their starch bonds which human digestion cannot fully break, meaning the Gelatinized Maca will yield a much higher percentage of absorbed macaenes than non-gelatinized maca. This really is the strongest maca we've ever tasted and we know you wont be disappointed!
