What do batteries and Peruvian plant roots have in common?

Answer: They both make things GO!

We all get that feeling sometimes — like we just need to re-charge our batteries and have more energy, but we don’t know how.

As with most things, we can look to our food to provide a source of healthful energy, and one Peruvian plant root in particular may just make you feel like your batteries are finally charged.

I’m talking about maca, an ancient food used by indigenous sheep herders who noticed that when their sheep consumed maca, they were hardier, healthier, and more fertile.

Increased energy levels and a powerful punch of vitamins (specifically C, D, and B vitamins), minerals (like magnesium, zinc, potassium, and copper), amino acids, and fatty acids, are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to maca.

Multiple benefits have been noted from those who’ve made maca part of their diet, including:

  • relief from depression and fatigue
  • boosted immunity
  • increased libido and fertility
  • increased bone density
  • balanced hormones
  • and more!

Consider this adaptogenic superfood as an amazing addition to your lifestyle — one that might be the missing link if you happen to experience low energy levels, depression, compromised immunity, or hormonal imbalances. Read here for more information on maca and other adaptogens for women.

By the time you’re done wiping the drool off your mouth from looking at these 30 maca recipes, believe me, you’re going to want to get your superfood on!

Looking For Maca?

You’ll want to seek out high-quality organic maca that’s as fresh as possible, and packaged to preserve nutritional quality.

At Traditional Cooking School, we’ve investigated maca sources, and we’re really excited about The Maca Team‘s maca because it’s “beyond organic”. Their Peruvian farms (with farmers paid fair wages) follow traditional agricultural methods such as giving the land rest and using natural fertilization methods. This is good for the land and great for the food that’s grown on it.

Also, their maca is fresh! They process and sell small batches from only the current year’s harvest, so you receive it with a few months of it being harvested. (As opposed to larger producers who move it in huge shipping containers, where your maca could be sitting around for 2 years before you actually get it to eat it.)

Finally, their raw maca isn’t heated above 100 degrees Fahrenheit, therefore preserving the enzymes and nutrients. (They have a pre-cooked gelatinized maca for those with a sensitive stomach.) Then it’s packaged in foil-lined double-sealed opaque bags or sealed amber jars to ensure that the maca’s potency isn’t reduced by light, humidity, or oxygen.

The Maca Team‘s maca is simply premium quality, and we can tell by how much better we feel when using this maca than other brands.
