Details: Our vegan Maca Root formula provides a convenient source of concentrated Maca Root, each capsule delivering the equivalent of 500mg dried Maca Root; supporting your wellbeing has never been easier. Herba’s Organic Maca is gelatinized, removing the root’s starch to improve absorption and concentrate the active ingredients within. Maca is truly a power-packed superfood that has a lot of nutrition. Amazingly, a single Maca root contains almost 60 phytonutrients! Dried Maca powder contains 60% carbohydrates, 9% fiber, and slightly more than 10% protein. It has a higher lipid (fat) content than other root crops (2.2%), of which linoleic acid, palmitic acid, and oleic acid are the primary fatty acids, respectively. Maca is rich in calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sulfur, and iron. It contains a trace of minerals, including zinc, iodine, copper, selenium, bismuth, manganese, and silica, as well as vitamins B1, B2, C, and E. Maca contains nearly 20 amino acids and seven essential amino acids. Maca is also a rich source of sterols, including sitosterol, campesterol, ergosterol, brassicasterol, and ergosterol. As a root crop, maca contains five times more protein than a potato and four times more fiber. Maca Root (Lepidium meyenii) is a plant native to Peru, typically found growing at altitudes of 3,500 meters above the sea high in the Andes Mountains. It is often called the Peruvian Ginseng as it shares a lot of the same health benefits as the Ginseng used in traditional Asian medicine. The powerful active principle of Maca is the alkaloid known as Macaene, but the tuber (root) also contains: vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6, C, E; minerals such as Iron, Calcium, Zinc, Manganese, Magnesium, Potassium, Phosphorus and Copper; fatty acids such as Omega 3, 6 and 9 as well as phytosterols, flavonoids and saponins.
