The Sunfood™ Difference
Maca Extreme® is a potent, highly absorbable 4:1 concentration of micro-pulverized maca root. This creates a uniquely potent maca product unlike any other.
Maca is a cruciferous root vegetable native to the Peruvian Andes. Our maca is grown at high elevation in the mountain plateaus, producing the world’s best maca root.
Maca was sacred to the Inca people who inhabited modern day Peru. Inca warriors would consume maca before long journeys and battles to increase their energy, strength, and endurance.
Add a daily dose of organic Maca Extreme® to your diet to feel the power of this ancient superfood.

The taste of the powder is good but a little too intense for me.

I always include this in my morning smoothies or juices as it gives me that extra boost of energy I need in the morning - it does not at all feel too intense like other reviewers have said - and I often add more than the suggested amount - it's good stuff! Don't be scared or turned off by the "too extreme" comments.

I really like what maca does for me, so I decided to try this more potent formula. Wow! It's really intense. I couldn't sit still at my desk. Realizing this, I use it now only before a workout or long hike. The regular maca works better for everyday use.

I liked the texture and rich flavor. It’s been awhile since I had regular maca, but do feel a bit more zoom zoom than I remembered from the regular maca. I have never had a power/energy drink before, with all the amazing superfoods and products like maca. This is the way to go.

I love this product, and it is true that a little goes a long way. I take about 1/2 tsp - 1 tsp of this powder and 1 tbsp of the regular maca. This ones seems so smooth too.

I bought a jar of Maca Extreme (ME) just before it was repackaged in its bag form, and mostly because of the claims people were making that ME was "too intense" or that they couldn't sit still and had to stop using it. ME is an adaptogen, which just means it improves your body's ability to deal with physical or psychological stress, trauma, anxiety and fatigue by supporting the adrenal glands, endocrine system, and thyroid, which overall increases hormone output and the body's immunity. While I can't speak for others, I can assure you that after using ME almost daily for 2 weeks, I've had no such "intense" reactions. And to my knowledge, that's how it should be. This isn't a pre-workout boost. If you're healthy and have good energy, you probably won't notice anything. That being said, ME is another solid product from Sunfood, and if you're looking for a natural way to curb stress, or just want another healthy powder to add to your superfood smoothie, I definitely recommend it.
