Based on FSANZ pre-approved claims;
Organic Maca Powder is an ACO certified organic ingredient with high nutritional value. Maca has been used since Inca times to improve physical and mental performance. Being cultivated between 3800-4200 metres above sea level, it is one of the few crops that can endure the harsh weather in the Andes. Our Organic Maca Powder has an earthy taste with a nutty flavour, making it a perfect complement to smoothies and other beverage applications. It is naturally rich in dietary fibre, as well as providing plentiful amounts of vitamins and minerals.
