MACA PRESENTATIONS

There are 4 kinds of Maca presentation:

Raw Roots

The raw root is poorly digestible and ineffective because poorly assimilable and are only very rarely found in Europe.

Maca Flour

Very common, sold under different labels, in bulk or in capsules. The flour (Bio) is ineffective if it is not boiled and also totally indigestible. It is the raw material that will allow gelatinization or hydro-alcohol extraction. Its price is obviously lower.

Gelatinized Maca

Gelatinization consists of heating the Maca and melting its own pectin (vegetable gelatin) which makes it digestible, efficient and allows to make tablets without capsule. No external components or animal gelatin are involved in the gelatinization process.

The Atomized Extract of Maca

It is a hydro-alcoholic extraction of the active ingredients of Maca. The concentration is much higher than in the gelatinized preparation and its efficacy is more than tenfold. Most scientific studies have been carried out with gelatinized Maca (ETH Zurich 2011). More recently the hydro alcoholic extract of black Maca is used mainly to increase fertility with a single daily intake.
