How It's Made
After harvest our maca is sun-dried for about three months at altitude, the traditional way. It is then activated: gently pressure-heated to remove the starch, which makes it smooth, easy to digest and ready to enjoy straight from the bag. Watch how each batch is made.
Food of the High Andes
Maca only grows on the high plateaus of Junín, Peru, above 3,800 m, where freezing nights, fierce sun and thin air leave little else able to survive. Andean communities have grown, dried and shared it for more than 2,000 years, and it remains a treasured food in Peruvian homes today.
Our Maca Research
Seleno Health invests in research into maca. Together with the University of Otago in New Zealand, and co-funded by Callaghan Innovation, we have carried out pre-clinical laboratory studies on maca and its naturally occurring macamides.
Meet Our Maca Farmers
Our maca comes direct from our farm in the mountains of Junín, where we work with farmers Florencio and Yraida. Buying direct means fair prices for the families who grow it, and $1 from every bag of maca goes to our community fund supporting San José de Quero.
“This is the maca Andean families have eaten for generations. We just make sure it reaches you the same way.”
