Gelatinized Maca Powder Our Gelatinized Maca Powder is a
concentrated form made for easier digestion than raw powder. An extrusion
process breaks down hard to digest starches and enhances Maca’s
bioavailability without compromising its beneficial properties. Maca is a root
vegetable grown in the Peruvian Andes at elevations of 14,000 feet. Maca is
one of the few plants that can grow in such a harsh and inhospitable climate.
It was sacred to the Incas and has been used as a food and medicine in South
America for centuries. It is well known for its ability to help enhance
strength and endurance. In fact, Incan warriors would often consume maca
before long journeys and battles. Today’s athletes are confirming what history
has to say about this incredible superfood. Maca is an adaptogenic herb known
for its ability to help the body adapt to stress factors, support hormone
balance, provide natural energy & increase athletic performance. Our maca is
grown only at high elevations in Peru, in areas untouched by pollution where
it is sun-dried and low-temperature processed into a fine powder. Inferior
maca products are grown at lower elevations and processed at higher
temperatures. Sunfood maca powder has a unique nutty flavor that goes well
with sweet or savory dishes. Note: Sunfood only purchases and sells 100%
authentic Peruvian Maca from the Junín Plateau and will never purchase or sell
maca grown in China. GELATINIZED MACA BENEFITS Calcium, Magnesium, Potassium,
