My favourite maca powder. Great taste and price. A repeat order and I’ve tried many different types

A teaspoon in a coffee makes a healthy, slightly malty-tasting drink.

Please ignore the comments from those who have read one or two articles and decided they're experts.I am by no means one myself, so I suggest looking at trusted sources like medical journals, nutritionists, and the companies who have been operating in Peruvia for decades.The consensus seems to be:1. This is not 'raw' in the same sense as eating the plant from the ground and is perfectly safe to consume as it is. It has been thoroughly cleaned and dried.2. Cooking / heating it does NOT destroy It's nutrient content and in fact, has been shown to increase some of its benefits.3. Some people (est 1/10) are sensitive to the starch in maca, so can experience some digestive distress. That's not dangerous and should improve when eaten cooked, but it can cause upset stomach.4. Most health benefits have not been well-studied. It almost certainly has some, and would be a good addition to most people's diets - but it's not a magic cure all.Overall, I find the taste quite bitter and will try gelatinized maca next (nothing to do with gelatine and suitable for vegans), which is apparently much sweeter and arguably better for your digestion.1 teaspoon in oat milk, with 2 teaspoons cacao, and 1 teaspoon maple syrup, makes a lovely hot chocolate though!ETA - Unfortunately as I suffer with Graves disease, I have had to stop eating maca. It is not good for those with overactive thyroid and caused palpitations.Still safe for everyone else! But worth noting, I as was unaware.

This is interesting, I'm just in the peri-menopausal stage and I was starting to get hot flushes - I thought at first it was happening when I was wearing a fleece. Anyway, I was definitely beginning to get them and then I was in a health food shop and began chatting to this girl at the Maca powder shelf who happened to be a herbalist and she recommended it - I came and bought at Amazon and started putting it in my cereal. However, the taste is not good - yuksville. I started making smoothies and added a large spoonful to them - great! I couldn't taste it at all and got into the habit. After a few weeks I realised that gradually my hot flush symptoms were reducing and after a little while further, I hadn't got them at all. I stopped taking it and in fact I've not had any symptoms since. I appreciate that this might not happen for everyone but it is worth a try if you're suffering. I think it also gives you energy (but that might be the effect of drinking a fruit/veg smoothie every morning). This make seems to be good enough quality.

Brilliant

Thank you

Bought to help balance hormones. Tried it today for the first time mixed into coffee, and it tastes absolutely vile. don't know if I'll be able to get used to it but I'll soldier on for a bit and see. It tastes like old stale vegetables that have rotted. Will try it mixed with various foods/liquids until I find something that makes it palatable.Update - day 2. Tried it today stirred into half a glass of milk and what a difference - tasteless in the milk so much more palatable. You'll need to mix it in like you mix flour into milk instead of the way i did by dumping a teaspoonful into the glass with milk already in it - I had to spend ages getting the lumps out!!
