Red Maca Powder - Certified Organic, Raw, Non-GMO, Vegan, Gluten Free, and Nutrient Rich Superfood - Balances Hormones, Enhances Libido, Energy, Stamina, and Memory - by Organique 8 oz. The red maca root is the second rarest colored maca and makes up about 25% of an entire harvest. Red maca ranges in color from a pinkish hint to a deep purple tone and is separated from the rare black and standard yellow maca roots for its unique properties. Maca is sometimes called the Peruvian ginseng for its similar effect. Red maca is believed to have higher levels of certain phytonutrient compounds than black or yellow maca roots, which help to support antioxidant activity in the body. It is also suggested that red maca could reduce prostate inflammation and protect bone structure (also the case with black maca) over other colors of maca. Another factor that differentiates the red maca root is its sweet and subtle caramel taste.Red Maca Powder Excellent Source of:Higher levels of phytonutrients support antioxidant activity better than other colors of maca rootPhytonutrient compounds: alkaloids ("macainas"), sterols, saponins, and tanninsBoosts libido High in proteinMinerals: iron, potassium, iodine, magnesium, calcium and fiberMay support immunityIngredients100% sustainably sourced raw and organic red maca root powderTo keep these ingredients as fresh as possible, store them in a cool, dry place.Our Source:Maca has been grown and consumed in Peru's central highlands as far back as 1,600 BC.
