Viva Naturals Organic Maca Powder, Gelatinized for Enhanced Bioavailability, Non-GMO (1lbs Bag)

The package I received was in perfect condition. The content feels fresh and shows quality. I was not upset by the smell of this MACA powder. It has a smooth butterscotch/nutty aroma without the sweet artificial sugary side. I don't like sugar very much and I've always liked nutty smells so I was in known terrain. The powder has a very fine texture and therefore can be mixed very well with liquids. I was so hurried to give it a first taste that I swallowed a straight tea spoon, BIG mistake. I completely choked. The grit of the powder is so fine that it gets into your aerial cavities and sticks to your palace and throat tunnel. Very bad feeling. After downing a couple of gallons of water I was fine. Lesson learned. Never, ever take a straight spoon. If you, like me, enjoy the taste and smell of natural nuts you will like this aroma. Just dilute it in a glass of water first. I would not recommend to bake or mix MACA in hot meals since you will destroy most its effects. Many people report the lack of effects. That might be the issue. Always mix it with cold foods like cereals, shakes, etc. Will report back after a month of use but so far I didn't see any advert effects.

I have been using maca powder for a while and it has pleasantly surprised me. It has an earthy and slightly sweet flavor, which at first costs a little, but mixed in smoothies, coffee or oatmeal is very good. It gives me more energy during the day without the need for extra coffee, and I have noticed better mood and less fatigue. In addition, it is a plus that provides minerals and vitamins. Of course, I recommend starting with a small amount because it can give some digestive discomfort if you go too far. In general, a very complete and versatile natural supplement that is worth trying.”

I cannot say enough good things about this product. I had been reading about Maca for a while and watched a lot of videos on YouTube about it. I wanted to take it for hormone balancing and energy. I can DEFINITELY feel it working on my hormones. I am feeling things I had not felt in years. The first thing I noticed is after drinking a tablespoon mixed with my coffee is that it immediately opened up my sinuses. It does this every time, so it is not some placebo effect. I am kind of surprised I have not seen other people mention that it does that to them too. That is an interesting effect that I will take. It makes it easier to breathe through my nose. The other thing I love about it is it does put me in a great mood and gives me a lot of clean feeling energy that lasts all day. It also decreases my appetite so I am not snacking all day long. I do love this stuff and will keep buying this brand because it is working so well. I also love that it is organic as I rarely buy products that have chemicals and pesticides in them anymore. So I very much appreciate that it is organic. It has a nice malty flavor that I like in my coffee, and it also tastes good in a vanilla banana smoothie that I make with vanilla protein powder on occasion. Great stuff!

I am completely 100% super satisfied with the Viva Natural Organic Maca Powder as it is very easily mixed into anything your using it for .... being health drinks or other recipes that you may have !!!

Have only been taking for a few weeks. Haven’t noticed a difference yet. I take daily in my coffee, however it does not dissolve and the bottoms of my coffee is always chunky. It doesn’t have a nutty taste I wasn’t a fan of at first but i have gotten use to it and don’t mind drinking.
