Maca Powder

Description Maca Powder

Maca powder is a supplement that is highly popular among superfood enthusiasts. As a superfood wholesaler, this bestseller cannot be missing from our assortment. Maca is known by its botanical name, Lepidium Meyenii, and is a root vegetable originating from Peru. Besides its botanical name, maca is also referred to as the ginseng of the Andes.

The product is gaining popularity and is one of the most sought-after items among ‘superfoods’, alongside chia seeds. In terms of color, the ‘regular’, yellow, maca resembles a potato. However, in addition to this variant, there are also black and red maca roots. The roots are dried and then ground into powder, sometimes mixed together.

Origin

Our Maca Powder originates from Peru, where it grows at high altitudes in the Andes Mountains. It thrives under harsh conditions but manages to survive each time. In that regard, it is certainly a superfood! Maca grows at elevations of 3000 to 4500 meters above sea level, facing rigorous conditions. Peruvians have been harvesting the product since 1600 BC. Attempts to grow the product elsewhere, such as in China, have not been successful to date.

How to Use Maca?

How is maca best used? Our business customers mainly use it as an ingredient in blends or fill it as single packaging. Consumers are advised to incorporate the powder into dishes, such as smoothies or oatmeal. Of course, it can also be taken in capsule form.

The scent of maca is quite strong and unique. It smells musty and has a somewhat malty taste. When mixed in a smoothie with, for example, cocoa, its taste is barely noticeable.
