Maca was domesticated about 2,000 years ago by
the Incas, and primitive cultivars of maca have been found in archaeological sites dating as far back as 1600 B.C.
To the indigenous peoples of the Andes, maca is
a valuable commodity. Native Peruvians traditionally have utilized maca since pre-Incan
times for both nutrional and medicinal purposes. It is an important staple in the diet of the Andes, as it has the highest nutritional value of any food crop grown there.
Sol Raiz Organics TM Maca has a nutty flavor that can also be described as malty. Use it to create healthy, delicious smoothies or add it to cereal, yogurt or dessert! Sol Raiz Organics TM Maca powder is a whole food with “superfood” qualities. It is rich in protein as well as essential vitamins and minerals for overall glandular alignment.
Sol Raiz Organics TM Maca powder is harvested above 14, 000 feet in the Andes from a tuber or maca root. All Sol Raiz Organics TM Maca is grown organically and sustainable: no herbicides or pesticides are ever used on the crop. No chemicals are used in the processing.
Suggested Use:
Start your day with a teaspoon and continue from there. Some prefer to refrigerate after opening, it’s up to you. Try to store in a dry, cool place. You cannot use too much maca, but a little bit goes a long way…
