Maca, also known as Peruvian Ginseng comes with a long list of reported benefits including supporting reproductive health, healthy skin and mental focus.
Our Maca comes from farmers in the Province of Junin, Peru from the “Association of Producers of Organic Maca,” an organization of over 30 families; they also provide temporary employment for more than 100 people in times of sowing, harvesting and drying. The farmers adhere to best farming practices, without using fertilizers or pesticides and using crop rotation to improve yield.
Maca is grown on land at an altitude greater than 4105m, where the rock and limited soil is formed from calcite, dolomite and other minerals. The Maca plant absorbs nutrients from the hills and rocks in which it grows for the 7 to 8 months before harvesting, making Maca a mineral and nutrient rich food.
Gelatinised Maca means the indigestible starch is removed. This process also concentrates certain health giving nutrients, such as, metabolites and minerals.
