Peruvian root used for energy, stamina and hormonal balance

What it is

Maca Root Extract is a concentrated form of a plant that grows in the Andes mountains of Peru. It is a root vegetable that belongs to the same family as broccoli and cabbage.

Why it's used

It is primarily used by people looking to improve their physical and mental performance. Common reasons for taking it include:

How it's made

The process begins by harvesting the raw roots from the ground. These roots are cleaned and then processed using a solvent or water to pull out the most active compounds, creating a concentrated extract. This extract is then dried into a fine powder, which is either put directly into capsules or sold as a loose powder.

What it typically costs

This ingredient is generally mid-range in price. This is because the raw roots must be sourced from specific high-altitude regions in Peru, which makes the supply chain more complex than for ingredients grown globally.
