Maca is also called “Peruvian ginseng.” Fermentation makes maca’s complex bouquet of nutrients highly bioavailable. Its powder will infuse a maximum of its benefits when uncooked.
A native plant of the Andean highlands, maca is referred to by the indigenous Quechua people of Peru as the “fortifying food grown in the mountains.” The hostile climate and altitude it has adapted to accounts for its beneficial compounds. It was primarily used as food by local peoples; that’s why New Roots Herbal has chosen to complement its range of fermented products with maca—to offer you the best in traditional superfood.
New Roots Herbal’s Fermented Maca powder can be added to your dishes, mueslis, smoothies, yogurts, juices, or hot beverages.
Add to water, smoothies, fruit juice, garden cocktails, yogurts, baked goods, signature dips, spreads, or hot beverages.
