Ours is made from 100% Black Maca roots grown on an organic farming co- op in a remote pristine part of the Peruvian Andes. Gelatinized Black Maca has been pre-cooked to dissolve most starch content and ease digestion. It takes about 4 kg of Raw Maca roots to produce 1 Kg of Gelatinized Maca powder. Research has found Black Maca to have some important properties among all Maca colors. A 2009 study in Peru found Black Maca to be the best for increasing sperm count and motility.
