Maca is a well known and popular adaptogen. Adaptogens help the body deal with stress and react more calmly to external stresses. Maca is helpful in balancing hormones and is known for boosting mood and energy levels.

Dubbed the ‘super food of the Andes’ Maca root is part of the “Brassicaceae family”, which grows widely across the Andes at various altitudes between 4,000 and 4,500 meters above sea level. The root has been used medicinally by the native Incas of Peru for over 2,000 years and has gained huge popularity across the world over the last 10 years.

Our organic, four-root maca powder is made up of 70% yellow maca and 30% mixed red, black and purple maca. Produced to the highest standards, following the same farming practices that have been used locally in Peru for generations, our four-root maca is a highly nutritious and tasty super food.

Suggested use:

Take between 1-8 teaspoons per day, start with a small amount and work up to what feels a good amount for you and your body.

Maca is a great one to have in the morning to help with energy, so try adding to any breakfast meal such as porridge, granola, smoothies or smoothie bowls. We also recommend making a ‘Maraschino’ with hot water, not milk, cinnamon and your choice of natural sweetener.
