Maca Powder harvested by Navitas Naturals is amazing stuff. We use it to heighten the energy of the room. It is an endocrine system stimulant. Very different from coffee that over loads your liver. Maca wakes you up by feeding your adrenal system rather then beating it up.
A potent adaptogen, maca is one of nature’s most powerful super foods. In recipes, a little bit goes a long way: start with a teaspoon per serving and increase as desired.
Maca has been traditionally used in baked foodstuffs for centuries. Add 1-2 Tbsp of maca to smoothies; maca pairs especially well with other super foods.
Navitas Naturals Cacao is a perfect pairing with Navitas Naturals maca.
When creating new maca recipes, try using 2 parts fat (like cacao or nut butter), 2 parts sweetener (like agave nectar or yacon syrup), and 1 part maca.
So what does it taste like?
Sort of like old fashion malt – Rooty, with an after taste of slightly bitter and a little pungent. At first you may ask, “how is this going to taste good?”
Then I tried one recipe and I felt so good afterwards that I started thinking of new ways to highlight maca’s unique flavor.
Individuals with adrenal fatigue and depressed endocrine systems should take a little maca each day in their morning smoothie, or lightly sprinkled over apple sauce.
