Maca is an Andean plant native to high mountain regions. Its Latin name is Lepidium meyeni. For over 2,000 years, it has been an important part of the diet of the inhabitants of Peru and Bolivia. Almost every part of the plant is used, e.g. maca roots can be boiled with porridge or fermented into beer, the leaves are often eaten raw. During the Spanish colonization period, maca was so valued that it was used as a form of currency. Legends say that the Incas used maca before battle to increase their fighting spirit, strength and condition.
Rainforest Foods Maca is grown organically at an altitude of over 4,000 m and is a combination of 4 types: red, yellow, purple and black, thanks to which we get all the best in one product.
There are several colors of maca: cream, yellow, green, purple, red, black. Basically they have similar properties, but nevertheless slightly differ depending on the color.
Maca Raiforest Foods is certified organic by the Soil Association, which guarantees that a product sold as organic is indeed so. The only guarantee that the customer buys an ecological product is the ecological certificate of the given country and the obligatory EU logo in the form of a green leaf (applies to food products, including dietary supplements). In addition, all ecologically certified products must have a certification code on the packaging. For UK companies such as Rainforest Foods, this is in the GB-ORG-05 format. If such a code is not present on the packaging - the product is not ecological.
