Navitas Organics gelatinized Mmaca powder breaks down the starches in the maca root, allowing for easier digestion. Maca balances the body's delicate endocrine system, supporting natural energy and vitality. It's a fiber-rich food and a good source of plant protein—about 10%. Maca root is also packed with essential fatty acids. The gelatinized maca powder is full of non-traditional nutrients that aren’t accounted for on the standard nutrition label, yet are vital to fighting day-to-day stress, and enabling health and well-being.
