Maca Superfood Powder, Organic

Nutrient dense superfood to support the body' systems for optimum health and wellbeing. Maca is a root vegetable from Peru and used from pre Inca times for both nutritional and medicinal purposes. Maca is a complete protein, it contains vitamins B1, B2 and B6 as well as essential minerals zinc and potassium. It is packed with essential nutrients and is renowned for its reputed fertility enhancing properties and considered to be beneficial for hormone balancing. It also helps improve energy levels and strengthen the immune system. Maca is considered to be an adaptogen, supporting the adrenal glands in times of stress.

Maca root comes in four different colours, they all share some qualities and also have their own benefits each. Our Maca is a unique blend of the four types, it contains yellow 40%, black 20%, red 20% & purple 20%. The different types work synergistically, providing you with the most health enhancing properties.

Fushi superfoods are bio-dynamically grown, cold processed and 100% raw to retain their complete nutritional properties. They are grown and derived from sustainable sources. We believe in being honest to our customers, kind to our planet and responsible for our actions.

For the packaging of our Superfoods we have chosen to use glass, a recyclable material. We do not use the more popular laminated pouches as these are unrecyclable. We aim to use materials that are best for the planet, and reflect our ethos of being earth friendly. So they might not be as pretty, but they’re kinder for the planet!
