Raw Tri-Color Maca Root Powder, Certified Organic, Fair Trade, Non-GMO, Vegan and Raw
Overview
Our Raw Tri-Color Maca Root Powder is a unique and traditional blend of all 3 major colors of maca roots. It is made from a mix of all 3 colors of maca roots: black, red and yellow. We call this blend “Heritage Harvest” because the tri-color blend is the way that people in the Andes have traditionally eaten maca. Before the 1990s, maca roots were not separated by color. Instead, after harvest they were simply lumped together for consumption.
Our raw tri-color maca is a blend of maca powders made from about 40% yellow, 30% red and 30% black maca roots. It is therefore an excellent way to get the benefits of all 3 major colors of maca root. In addition, this powder remains “raw” as it has never been heated above about 110 F / 41 C.
Our Raw Tri-Color Maca Powder
As with all of our powders, raw tri-color powder is made from roots that are organically grown, handled, processed and stored with care and consciousness. The roots come from an organic farming cooperative in and around Junin, Peru. We work only with producers who own and manage their lands at a local grass roots level. The cooperative of farmers is committed both to organic farming and to producing the highest quality Maca products available anywhere. We're very happy to support their work.
Raw Tri-Color Maca Powder is Best Used For:
Raw tri-color maca powder is a great way to get started with maca. Since it requires less work to sort the roots by color, this maca is less expensive than others. Yet, it contains black, red and yellow maca, thereby offering benefits of all three.
We recommend it for:
-
Men and women wanting to consume the traditional blend of maca colors
- Athletes, both men and women, looking for extra stamina and strength
- Anyone looking to improve memory, concentration and focus with maca
- All people taking maca to improve their bone strength and density
Please note that results may vary from person to person
Research On Maca Has Found That:
-
Maca stimulates improved athletic performance, including stamina and strength
- Maca supports concentration, memory and overall brain function
- Maca is nutrient dense with 60% carbohydrates, 12 crucial minerals, 10 vitamins, over 40 fatty and amino acids and 4 unique glucosinolates – a true superfood
- Maca has been used for over 2000 years as a nutritionally dense food to promote endurance, vitality, fertility and libido in populations living at very high elevations.
What Are The Advantages of Raw Tri-Color Maca Powder?
Using tri-color maca powder has a few significant advantages.
- It costs less. Since tri-color maca is easier to produce (doesn’t require manual separation of the colors) it is less expensive.
- It contains all 3 colors of maca root and offers the benefits of each color.
- It is relatively mild in taste.
- It is an easy way to start with maca.
- It’s great to share with friends or family as it contains all 3 colors of maca.
Many of our customers start with a tri-color maca product and later move on to a red, black or yellow product. It’s great to do that as the nutritional profiles do differ slightly between the colors. Other people try raw tri-color maca and stick with it.
Either way is fine.
How Is The Powder Different From Capsules?
Maca powder is less expensive than capsules simply because it costs more in labor and material to create the capsules. For some people the expense is worth it as capsules are more convenient than powders. Capsules need no special mixing or preparation. To take them you simply swallow them with a beverage of your choice. In addition, it is easy to get a very precise serving size using capsules since the amount of maca they contain is standardized (ours at 750mg per capsule).
In terms of powders, they are less expensive and offer more flexibility when taking them. They can be added to smoothies or other recipes. It is easy to adjust serving sizes. Plus, maca root powder adds an interesting earthy caramel-like flavor to many dishes that quite a few people appreciate.
How Do I Eat Raw Maca Powder?
The simplest way to consume raw tri-color maca powder is to mix it in with water, milk or yogurt of your choice. While that works for some people, many others prefer to add it to their smoothies or use it in other recipes. We do have an extensive recipe section. Here is one of our favorites for this particular kind of maca:
Maca and Chia Smoothie 
Ingredients:
-
- 2 frozen bananas
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk

Directions:
Add all ingredients to a blender. Turn on the blender for 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon.
Storage/Shelf Life:
Maca keeps well for up to 24 months provided that it is stored in a sealed bag out of direct sunlight and at below 70% humidity. (More storage and use tips)

I can tell the difference from my usual store-bought brands
Loving the red maca from themacateam. I can tell the difference from my usual store-bought brands. It really tastes so fresh and sweet compared to others. I really love this product. Thanks for sourcing it for us to enjoy

The Maca tastes fresh and flavorful, the Kilo bag is a great price
I LOVE Maca Team Maca...this was my first purchase with the Maca Team and I have no need to try any other Maca-producer. The Maca tastes fresh and flavorful, the Kilo bag is a great price, and I feel so much more at ease (Maca is such powerful medicine :) )

The Maca Team is a small business run by a family who cares
I take 24 products from five to six times a week to increase my well-being and sensual and sexual delights. ;D The Maca Team’s organic maca is one of them—nine grams in my smoothie, Monday to Saturday. The Maca Team is a small business run by a family who cares about its customers, its Peruvian maca growers, and the environment. It's vital to know the source of everything we put in our mouths. Physical and mental health are precious treasures. :D

Your maca is sent from God, is a blessing and is superb
By Milt Thompson
This product is amazing!
This product is amazing! I have used other cheaper brands of white maca with fairly good results, but after trying the Maca Team maca, I noticed within two weeks all of my menopausal symptoms had completely vanished. Others described a bad taste and smell, but I have tried the black and the red and find them both to be mild tasting. I use a tablespoon in my daily smoothly
By Joy
Their maca varieties are good, as is their customer service.
Maca first came to us by our vitamin supplier. Then we ordered from the Maca Team. Comparison? Think fire-fly, then think mid-day sun. At 76 and 73 years respectively, that is a big deal; and at comparable cost too. We never have we had such speedy delivery and the packaging is the strongest, most protective we've seen, ever, at all ... anywhere. Further, the Mrs. no longer takes hormone supplements. And Mr. scans the morning want ads for steady P/T work.

The difference in freshness is night and day, and better tasting
I had been using another brand of maca powder and decided to try The Maca Team's. The difference in freshness is night and day, and better tasting . I'm 6 foot 250 lbs. and take 4 teaspoons every day w/ my protein shake. Great energy boost and just feel great all day. I can tell a difference when I do not take it. best price that I have found {36oz}. I will be buying more as needed.

The Maca Team brand is very special.
I've tried various maca brands over the last 20 years and The Maca Team brand is very special. There is definitely a difference when it comes to the quality and colors of the maca. This red maca does seem to nourish certain parts of my body while the black maca nourishes something else. I know I've been missing the nutrition these maca provide. I'm 75 years old and bodies wear out, but I'm finding I'm regaining a functioning body. How wonderful is this?!?!!!

I just wanted to thank you for your excellently constructed website. I am a physician
I just wanted to thank you for your excellently constructed website. I am a physician and I recently started learning about Maca. I get a very good sense of it, and I expect I will try it out myself and possibly be recommending it to patients in the future. If so, your website will be the first place to send people. Thanks again.

I feel like I’m dealing with friends, not some company far away
Love the Maca team, In an earlier comment I said I was on the fence about where to buy Maca .Not anymore .You shouldn’t be either. The team has answered any questions I’ve had promptly. I feel like I’m dealing with friends, not some company far away out for my money only. The Maca is fresh, prices are good, the people are nice. If you’re on the fence, don’t be, you won’t be sorry.

We love this product. I own a store and work with clients holistically. We have recommended maca for years however, this is the highest quality product we have ever carried. I am proud to offer it in my store.

Thank you The Maca Team!!!!
I am really happy that I chose the Maca Team, today you can find many distributors selling Maca powder, however quality of the powder is impossible to compare. Moreover, the results after 2 weeks I could feel. Before I was taking maca powder and I did not feel any changes. But since I started taking Maca from Maca Team the changes are incredible. So, I did a test.:) I gave the powder to my partner ... and after 2 weeks he was impressed and told me that he has more energy, feeling happy... Thank you The Maca Team!!!!
By Olga
