Description
What is Gelatinized Maca Powder?
Our Gelatinized Maca Powder is derived from the nutrient-rich Peruvian maca root (Lepidium meyenii), in the Highlands of Junin close to the Andes region. Through a specialized heating process, known as gelatinization, the starch is removed, making it easier to digest while preserving its powerful benefits. This potent superfood has been cherished for centuries for its incredible nourishing properties.
Harvest: Maca root generally takes around 7 to 9 months to mature. In a favorable habitat, Maca can be sown in early winter and harvested in mid-summer to autumn. Maca is generally harvested from July to August.
* For orders larger than 1 kg, if you selected Pure Inka Foods Labels, stickers will be sent inside the box to be applied upon arrival.
* For orders larger than 100 g sample bags, use the specified selections (e.g. 900 g, 5 kg, 10 kg, etc) to avoid being charged the higher shipping rate.
Note on Wholesale Prices: Due to air shipping costs, you save more when you buy more. As an example for Canada, buying 1 kg, you pay $45 per kg in shipping, whereas buying 25 kg, you would pay $27 per kg. That’s an average savings of $18 per kg. Importing via ship cargo for a 300 kg export would cost you $3.70 per kg in shipping costs.
