Maca root has been used in indigenous Andean societies as a source of nourishment and healing for thousands of years, and continues to be one of the most appreciated superfoods today. Used to increase stamina, boost libido, and combat fatigue, maca root has long been regarded as a highly adaptogenic and powerful food. Navitas Naturals Gelatinized Maca Powder is a concentrated form of this special roots beneficial elements; the fiber of the root is extracted making this superfood more digestible and its beneficial elements intensified. With an earthy taste that is slightly nutty with a hint of butterscotch, a little maca goes a long way. This powdered maca concentrate can be blended into superfood smoothies, various milks, chocolates, or mixed into flour for dessert recipes.
Navitas Naturals Organic Maca Powder is cultivated in its indigenous region of the Junin Plateau amongst the Peruvian Andes. After harvest, the maca roots are gelatinized and milled: a process that concentrates the active ingredients through a heated extrusion to remove the starch. This product has only one ingredient, maca root, and is kosher, gluten-free, vegan, and 100% organic.
