You want maca in your day without the fuss. Here is what we hear most, and how this bottle is built to answer it.
“I don’t like the taste of maca powder.”
Nothing to taste or mix. The same raw maca root goes into a vegan capsule that you take with a glass of water.
“I can’t tell what is really in my capsules.”
Two ingredients. 1,600 mg of organic maca root per serving and a pullulan capsule. No fillers, binders or stearates. The Supplement Facts are right on this page.
“Red, yellow or black? I can’t decide.”
Maca comes in three color types of the same plant. These capsules blend all three: red, yellow and black maca root from Peru.
“I always forget to reorder.”

Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is a root vegetable that grows high in the Andes of Peru. It is in the same plant family as broccoli, radish and cabbage, and it comes in yellow, red and black color types. People in the Andes have grown and eaten it for generations, often cooked or dried and ground into flour.
These capsules use the raw root in all three colors, organically grown in Peru. Each 2-capsule serving holds 1,600 mg of organic maca root, and one bottle holds 60 servings.
