Navitas Naturals Organic Raw Maca Powder Incan Superfood, 16-Ounce Bag

As a health nut and vegan, I wanted something that would provide a good source of nutrition and an array of health benefits. Just then, I stumbled upon maca powder and after much research, I decided to go with Navitas Naturals. I must say, I am now obsessed with this stuff; I can finish an entire bag in one week. However, I will admit when I first tasted maca powder, I was not too fond of the taste. After trying many suggestions such as mixing it with coffee, I discovered that the best way, and most delicious way is to drink it with soy or rice milk. I personally love it with soy milk and a hint of cinnamon powder :D. As for the results of consuming maca powder, I have such an increase in energy and continuously feel wonderful throughout the day.... this is very important to me as a college student who deals with daily stress and tries to eat as best and healthy as I can while living in a new environment. So, to the people who are curious and interested in trying Navitas Naturals Maca Powder, I hope this review helps!

Product is of superior quality but the bag does not seal properly, I had to put the product in another zip lock bag to retain freshness, otherwise I will buy it again.

I purchased the product based on reviews I read from the internet. And the product do really works as advertised.

I've waited to write a review until I finished my first bag of product; This way I could try it different ways and give a better opinion. First, let me say I've tried other products from Navitas, and they have been quality products. I've tried the Maca powder in lots of ways including smoothies, various raw dishes, and even straight from the bag.
Other than the normal energy you would get from eating any form of concentrated carbohydrates, I haven't noticed any other benefits. I think this product has a unique flavor that could enhance certain dishes if used in moderation. I also think it serves better as a natural sweetner similar to stevia (but better tasting in my opinion). Mixing this product with other carbs/sugars will cause an insulin spike in the blood which is not healthy. If you want to know more about how sugars and insulin affect us, I recommend reading http://www.drbass.com/rosedale.html
So I believe this is a good product as far as Maca goes, but I just haven't experienced the stated benefits for this high priced bag of starchy carbs. I've tried many natural energizer foods from Acai and Cacao (which has slight liver/kidney toxins), to Ginseng, Carob, Wheatgrass, etc. Maca energy value is low on the list for me.

did some research on maca root on the web.bought about 2 weeks ago.i take
1 tbl spoon a day and have notice alot more energy almost within 10-15 of taking the product.it does taste not so good but i will continue to take this
product.
