Organic Premium Raw Red Maca Powder 8 oz
Organic Premium Raw Red Maca Powder 8 oz, Raw Premium Red Maca Root Powder, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO, Vegan and Raw Our Premium Raw Red 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 Red Maca is made from 100% Red Maca roots. 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 Red Maca. This type of 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: Red Maca powder has been shown, under phytonutrient analysis, to be higher in certain compounds that support the body in antioxidant and antitumoral activity. We recommend it: For men looking to use Maca for prostate support For women's fertility and libido (We recommend Black Maca for male fertility) For bone density - most important for women and children For everyone wanting to experience the highest antioxidant and nutrient levels of all Maca powders For everyone just starting with Maca (including children) due to the sweeter, more pleasant taste Please note that results may vary from person to person.
