Details: Organic Gelatinised Maca Powder. Maca is a plant which grows naturally at high-altitude, in the Peruvian Andes. For many centuries it has been a central part of local diets in Peru and Bolivia, where almost every part of the plant is used. Also known as 'Peruvian Ginseng', maca is a nutrition-packed root vegetable, flourishing in environments often 4000m above sea level. Plants at this harsh altitude have to take in as many nutrients from the ground as possible to survive. Maca has a high starch content which can be regarded as an inhibitor to digestion of the product. Gelatinised powder has undergone a process of gentle hydration and heating to break down starch content, resulting in a concentrated food whose nutrition is easier to absorb.
Recommended use: add 5g of powder to milk, juice or smoothies, or alternatively sprinkle on to food within a healthy, balanced diet.
