Maca shouldn’t mean another scoop to measure

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.”

120 capsules is about a 2-month supply at two a day. Choose Subscribe and save for delivery on your schedule, and skip, pause or cancel any time.

Meet the root

What is maca root?

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.

Wondering what maca does, or when to take it? Maca is a food, and we don’t promise any result. See the honest answers in the FAQ.

Questions we hear most

Maca Root Capsules FAQ: Questions Answered Honestly

What is in these capsules, how people take them, safety and what to expect. Maca is a food, research is limited and we make no promises about results.

What are maca root capsules?

They are maca root, a vegetable from the high Andes of Peru, in an easy-to-swallow capsule. Each 2-capsule serving of our USDA Organic Maca Root Capsules holds 1,600 mg of organic red, yellow and black maca root in a vegan pullulan capsule. One bottle has 120 capsules, or 60 servings.

What is maca?

Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is a root vegetable that grows at high altitude in the Peruvian Andes. It belongs to the same plant family as broccoli, radish and cabbage. In Peru it has been grown and eaten for generations, often cooked or dried and ground into flour.

Which colors of maca are in these capsules?

All three: red, yellow and black maca root. They are color types of the same plant. If you want a single color, we also sell Red Maca Powder and Black Maca Powder.

Is this raw maca?

Yes. The bottle reads RAW and Organic Peruvian Maca Root. The maca root is organically grown and harvested in Peru.

How many capsules should I take?

The label serving is 2 capsules, or as directed on the label. Swallow them with a glass of water. Many people take them with a meal. Please don't go over the label serving.

How long does one bottle last?

One bottle has 120 capsules. At 2 capsules a day that is 60 servings, about 2 months.

When is the best time to take maca capsules?

There is no established best time, so it comes down to personal preference. Some people take them with breakfast, others with lunch or an evening meal. If a certain time of day doesn't suit you, simply move it.

Can I take maca every day?

The label serving is 2 capsules a day. If you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication or have a medical condition (especially a thyroid condition), talk with your healthcare provider before use.

What results should I expect?

Maca is a food, and research on it is limited. Experiences vary from person to person, so we don't promise any result. If you have a specific goal in mind, talk with your healthcare provider.

Are there any side effects?

Some people report an upset stomach, which is one reason many take the capsules with food. Stop using it and talk with your healthcare provider if something doesn't feel right. This is general information, not medical advice.

Can I take it with other supplements or medication?

If you take prescription medication or other supplements, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist whether adding maca makes sense for you.

What is in the capsule? Are there fillers?

Two ingredients: organic maca root (red, yellow and black) and a vegan capsule made of pullulan. No GMOs, fillers, preservatives, stearates, artificial ingredients, binders, dioxides or lactose.

Is it vegan, organic, non-GMO and gluten-free?

Yes. The capsules are USDA Organic, vegan and non-GMO, and they contain no gluten, soy, sugar, shellfish, milk, egg or peanuts.

Where does your maca come from?

Peru. Mother Nature Organics is a family brand founded in 2016 by Kathy and Ed Sexton. Kathy is Peruvian, and we buy our maca from growers in the Peruvian Andes.

Capsules or powder: which should I choose?

It is a matter of preference. Choose capsules if you want nothing to measure, mix or taste, or if you travel. Choose USDA Organic Maca Powder if you like to stir maca into smoothies, oatmeal, coffee or baking.

What does maca taste like? Will I taste the capsules?

Maca powder tastes earthy, nutty and a little like malt. In a capsule you don't taste it, which is why many people choose capsules.

How should I store the bottle?

Keep the bottle closed in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children. Refrigeration is not needed.

Is the product tested?

Yes. The certificates image in the photo gallery shows our USDA Organic certification, GMP and a lab certificate of analysis.
