Black Maca Powder - Peruvian Organic Mac a root has been cultivated in the high Peruvian Andes since Incan times and holds an important place in traditional Andean food culture. Black Maca grows in the Peruvian Andes Mountains between 4000 and 4500m above sea level. The Maca plant is very hardy and grows in an extreme environment of intense cold, harsh winds, and powerful sunlight. Black Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is one of the three main colour types of Maca. Black maca contains greater concentrations of naturally occurring polyphenols than white and red maca, along with higher amounts of protein, selenium and bioactive plant compounds like glucosinolates. We source our Black Maca from the mountains of Peru where it is grown above 4200m in the clean mountain air. The Maca root is dried in the sun and then finely ground into a powder for ease of use. It has a distinctive nutty, malty taste that blends well with your favorite smoothie and can be added to coffee, smoothie bowls and cooking/baking. Product Ingredients: Organic Black Maca Powder.
