It soon became clear that maca was incredibly rare and hard to come by. It is estimated that there was only enough maca in Peru at the time to feed a few small villages. To the ancient Peruvians, the maca root was a precious commodity. For nearly two centuries, maca was commonly traded for gold and exported to the crowns of Spain. By the late 20th century, maca was forgotten, endangered and hidden away at 14,000 feet. With the help of the Peruvian government, we searched universities and seed germplasm collections throughout Peru. We first exported maca plants and seeds to botanical gardens, universities, and researchers in North America and around the world under USDA permits. Since then, researchers have proven the Inca story for centuries. Maca is packed with natural precursors, amino acids, minerals, and newly discovered macaamides and macaenes that are not found in other plants, which is why it works. Research data has finally revealed the amazing properties of this once-forgotten crop. Today, we are recognized as the freshest and purest root in the industry, directly sourcing our maca products.
