Peruvian Harvest Raw Gelatinized Maca
Maca roots not only have nutritional value (principally as sources of fibre, iron, manganese, and Vitamin C) but can also function as adaptogens to boost energy, improve mood, help regulate hormones, and even improve sex drive.
Maca root is offered in several formats including liquids, but these concentrated (6:1) powders may be the most convenient; they can either simply be swallowed in capsule form, or added to drinks or used as a baking or cooking ingredient as a powder. This blend of different type of maca prepared in a unique gelatinization process which removes the starches to make it easier to absorb and digest and more concentrated than other types on the market.
