Gelatinization is a process that removes the starch from the maca root making it easier to digest. The gelatinization essentially provides a "pre-digested" energy source that is more readily absorbed by the human gastrointestinal tract.

Grown high in the Andes Mountains of Peru, Maca (Lepidium meyenii) has been used by the Inca and earlier Peruvian cultures for more than 1,500 years. For maximum health benefits, our Organic Maca powder is a blend of a multitude of maca root colors found naturally in each harvest. It is grown without chemicals or herbicides, and the roots are sun-dried upon harvest.

Our Organic Maca is rich in enzymes, vitamins and nutrients as it is processed in to powder using low temperatures. The temperature reached is close to 40 degrees Celsius. At that temperature, many consider it to be raw while others believe it to be cooked.

Directions:
Mix 1/4 teaspoon of Maca Magic with 8-16 ounces of water, your choice of milk or preferred juice. Perfect for making smoothies or adding to foods.
