<p>Nature's Superfoods Maca Root Powder is a proprietary blend of yellow, red and black Maca roots, and hails from the high elevations of the Peruvian Andes, sun-dried (not oven-dried) and milled at low temperatures into a fine powder. Our Maca comes from the Junin region, where the best-quality Maca roots are produced in Peru. Maca root, known as Peruvian ginseng, is traditionally consumed to boost energy/stamina, increase fertility and improve libido. The ancient Incan warriors consumed Maca as a staple food and before they marched into battles. In modern time, Maca has been used as a natural herb to rebalance hormones, alleviate menopause/andropause symptoms (hot flashes, anxiety, etc) and for sports performance. Maca root nourishes and rejuvenates the endocrine (hormonal) system, thus balancing naturally the production of hormones in the body. It is nutrient-dense with over 60 phytonutrients, and is a wholesome supplement to your daily diet. Suitable for all ages.</p> <p>Store in cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.</p> <p>Peru</p>
