Peruvian Naturals Maca Powder


Maca grows in the mountains of Peru. It’s been used by indigenous people for over 3000 years. The powder is derived from its root by harvesting and grounding. It has a pleasant smell and taste. It is also getting famous for its great benefits:
  • Balances women’s hormones, and helps relieve the symptoms of PMS, Menopause and PCOS
  • Fertility. Improves the quality of eggs, which is important for ovulation.
  • Increases energy without jitters
  • Improves mood
  • Antioxidant booster
  • Highly nutritious
It has a slightly sweet nutty flavor. There aren’t many known ways to use it, but you can easily incorporate it in your daily ration by adding it to your cereal / oatmeal in the mornings, or to your smoothies. This is my favorite recipe for winters:

Hot Maca Chocolate
Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tbsp maca powder
Instructions:

Peruvian Naturals Maca root powder is certified organic by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA).

  1. Hey, hope you enjoy. Sorry that label looks a little beat up, looks like the Amazon people played football with it before shipping. That's a good-looking recipe, I think I'll try it tonight. I usually go 3-to-1 cacao to Maca, but milk instead of water plus vanilla should make that one yummy.
