Maca Powder ~ Raw, Peruvian by VivaPure

Maca (Mah-Ka) powder is a legendary tuber native excellent added to many foods and when paired with a sweetener can be transformed into a caramel like flavour in recipes. Blended into smoothies, shakes, energy bars and chocolate and even savory dips and sauces, it goes especially fantastic in any caramel/toffee recipes, lending its earthy malted flavour and nutritious energy boost.

This pale white Peruvian root is an ancient tuber like vegetable plant grown in the Andes mountains of Peru, and is the highest altitude cultivator in the world, at 4, 400 meters above sea level, no other food plant in the world survives at such high altitudes! Loaded with protein, plant sterols and other essential elements such as B Vitamins, Calcium, Phosphorus, Copper, Boron and more, Maca powder is known to naturally increase energy, strength, stamina and libido. This ancient superfood has been used in indigenous cultures for many millenniums, as a completely natural source of nourishment and healing.

Maca is as an adaptogen (like He Shou Wu and Ginseng) which is the ability to support the body wherever it is needed and regulate the glandular system, adaptogens literally act similar to a thyroid and balance our hormones and enhance our ability to handle stress, without any harmful side effects.
