Organic Premium Raw Tri-Color Maca Powder 1 lb

Raw Premium 3 Color Blend Maca Root Powder, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO, Vegan and Raw

Our Premium Raw Tri-Color Blend Maca Root Powder is carefully and consciously grown, processed and handled. It comes from an organic farming cooperative in and around Junin, Peru. We work only with producers who own and manage their lands at a local grass roots level. The cooperative of farmers is committed both to organic farming and to producing the highest quality Maca products available anywhere. We're very happy to support their work.

Details:

Our Raw Premium Tri-color Maca is made from a blend of all 3 colors of Maca roots: black, red and yellow. We call this blend “Heritage Harvest” because people in the Andes have traditionally eaten all Maca colors together. What makes this Maca “premium” is the way in which it is processed. Instead of being sundried, Maca roots are fresh processed immediately after harvest. After coming out of the ground they are cleaned in a citrus solution, ground into a pulp and low temperature dried. This special processing leaves more glucosinolates in the final product. The level of glucosinolates is standardized at above 1% in our Raw Premium Heritage Harvest Maca. This Maca:

• Comes from a modern approach to processing Maca developed in the past 25 years
• Is fresh Processed - Maca roots are dried in dehydrators immediately after harvest
• Is never heated over 105F / 40C
• Has higher glucosinolate content - nutrients which may help prevent cancer
• Is much stronger tasting - has a more noticeable Maca flavor with more spiciness
• Is limited in supply since it must be produced from fresh roots during annual harvest (June-August)
• Costs more as the process is more labor and equipment intensive
• Is the most complete and potent all-around Maca available

Best Used For:

With a blend of about 40% yellow, 30% Red and 30% Black Maca roots, Raw Premium Heritage Harvest Maca is the same product as our previous “Raw Premium Maca” Heritage Harvest Maca and a great way to get benefits of all 3 colors. This is a great all-purpose Maca for both Men and Women – especially since it contains a combination of the different root colors and is a higher potency product. Please note that results may vary from person to person.
