Red maca is one of the rarer varieties with a reddish skin and a pale yellow centre. Known as Peruvian ginseng, red maca is traditionally used to nourish and support female hormone balance and male prostate health and is also taken for stamina, mood, libido, menopause, bone density, circulation, skin health and overall vitality.
We source our organic maca from the Junin region in the Central Andes of Peru where it only grows at soaring altitudes of up to 4,500 metres. Frost and disease resistant, maca is a tuber that thrives in harsh environmental conditions where little else grows. Hand harvested and sun dried at altitude to ensure potency and freshness are uncompromised, our red maca is gently heated in the traditional way (gelatinised) for easier digestion and better absorption. The maca roots are then ground into a fine powder.
Good for you, good for the planet
Our pure red maca contains beneficial phytonutrients, amino acids and antioxidants and is a known adaptogen. Adaptogens work in synergy with the body by providing overall nutritional support to help you ‘adapt’ during times of stress and fatigue. Creating economic opportunities in an otherwise unproductive land, our fairly traded organic red maca provides positive outcomes for small-scale Peruvian farmers through economic and social empowerment.
