Maca was domesticated by the Incas and has since been used by indigenous people as part of a daily diet to promote optimal well being. While most Maca Powders simply offer dried and ground yellow Maca, Traditions Black & Red-Purple Maca X-6 is a gelatinized concentration of 80% black, 15% red-purple and 5% yellow Maca. Six pounds of these three fresh maca root varieties are condensed into one pound of powder. Gelatinization removes the starch from the root leaving a more concentrated powder that is not only easier to absorb and digest, but that offers a greater concentration of powerful phytonutrients.
