Foods Alive Organic Maca Root Powder, 8 oz (227 g)
UPC: 891551000294
Foods Alive Organic Maca Root Powder is a single-ingredient supplement derived from the Peruvian root Lepidium meyenii, designed as a versatile addition to smoothies and raw desserts. The manufacturer notes its sweet, nutty flavor and describes it as a raw whole food with no additives, preservatives, or fillers.
This product is sourced from Peru and carries USDA Organic certification, which is notable for this category as it verifies the maca is grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers. The powder is also Non-GMO Project Verified, gluten-free, vegan, and kosher. It comes in an 8-ounce container with a two-year shelf life when stored in a cool, dark place, and the manufacturer provides a recipe for a strawberry-vanilla smoothie on the packaging. Note that it is packaged in a facility that processes nuts and sesame.
