Organic Maca Powder (Gelatinized) 125 g
Maca root is native to the Central Andes of Peru, and the highest quality Maca is still grown there today. It has been used for thousands of years to increase energy levels, libido, and fertility in both men and women. Inca warriors consumed Maca to improve vitality and stamina before conquering new lands and cities. Inca children also ate Maca to improve their school performance, as it helps with brain function. It is believed to improve mood and balance hormones.
Maca's impressive nutritional content and legendary effects on the body only gained popularity in Europe in the 1960s. Maca is rich in B vitamins, copper, calcium, iodine, iron, niacin, 20 types of fatty acids and 18 amino acids.
Why do we recommend using gelatinized Maca over raw Maca? Gelatinized Maca does not contain any gelatin. “Gelatinization” refers to a heating process that neutralizes problematic enzymes and makes the Maca more digestible. In fact, gelatinized Maca is significantly richer in nutrients. It contains more than four times the iron, calcium, and zinc of raw Maca powder.
You can safely use Maca powder in baking, as it is one of the few superfoods that is not affected by heat. For example, Maca-cocoa muffins are a great treat for breakfast or even as an afternoon snack for those with a sweet tooth! Fill your day with happy energy.
