Garden of Life Organics Fair Trade Gelatinized Peruvian Maca Root Energy Boost 7.93 oz (225g) Powder with Probiotics, Certified Organic, Non-GMO, Vegan & Gluten Free Herbal SupplementsUSDA Organic

This is very high quality maca. Smells great, tastes delicious. Functionally, it does what maca is supposed to do - good energy, positive mood, strong libido. I've had low-quality maca and that is not what this is - this is high grade gelatinized maca.

Very good product.

Me lo recomendaron para elevar mi energía y que me ayudara con SOP. Me he sentido mucho mejor.

The directions on this powder say to mix a teaspoonful with your drink. I do not find that it mixes particularly well or easily. I tried it in iced tea and it was horrid. It did not mix well, it clouded the tea, and it change the taste to something incomprehensible and rather nasty. It tastes a good bit like a malt with a hint of raw, unseasoned sweet potato. I have taken maca root in capsule form before and much prefer it that way.I later tried it just in a teaspoon, eating the powder and chasing it with some soda. That works much better for me. It doesn't have a grainy taste, it's just powdery, and will dry your mouth out if you do not chase it with some liquid.This does taste like the maca root that I have tried before. It is considered an adaptogen, but a lot of people take it 4 balancing out hormone issues, increasing energy and stamina, and enhancing sexual libido and endurance. I personally cannot tell when I take it.I would only recommend this to people who plan on adding it to smoothies or to those people who plan on making their own capsules with it. It's really not that pleasant to take it alone and I don't find it good and drinks. I can take it if I just get a spoonful and then a drink afterward.For most other people I would recommend that they try prefilled capsules before trying this powder.ETA Taking this keeps giving me really dirty, vivid dreams. I don't know if that is common or not. This is the first brand that has caused this with me, but it happens several times after taking it - and I mean, they just go on and on all night. It's very strange as I don't normally dream things like I am dreaming. I upped my rating to 4 because it's clear to me that taking this is having a definite effect. My husband hasn't had any effect at all from taking it, and he's been taking extra since I told him about some of my dreams lately. He wants to have some too.

Totally worth it, and it does taste incredibly earthy! Be sure to buy an electrolyte mix or have juice on hand, will help to swish it down. Will buy again.

Expect to receive the Maca Root in a plastic jar. I thought since the product is Organic they would packed it in a glass jar.

Yummy flavor

Very satisfied
