Use suggestions: Due to its concentrated flavour, can use 1/2 or 1/3 of what you are used to taking, or start with half a teaspoon and increase gradually.  Can mix with water and stir to drink, or mix in coffee, hot chocolate or nut milks, or in vegetable/fruit smoothies with protein powder; or add to the fresh cheese and flaxseed oil combination of Budwig Diet, or to oatmeal, millet porridge and other cereals, or use in the making of desserts, bread and all baked products.  Best taken together with premium cinnamon powder or cocoa powder for synergistic effects.  Maca powder does not contain any caffeine and can be taken day or night. 

Nutrition pointers:  Some have called maca root the "Peruvian ginseng".  Like ginseng and ashwaghanda, it is an "adaptogen" that, instead of targeting any particular organ, it provides energy and beneficial effects to the whole system, helping the body to fight or adapt to stresses, anxieties and fatigue.  It has sustained balancing effects that help the body heal. 
 
Maca root is rich is calcium, phosphorous, magnesium, potassium, zinc, manganese and iron; Vitamins B1, B2, C, B3; insoluble fibres and lignin; and linolenic acid and oleic acids. Its calcium amount is higher than in a comparable quantity of milk.  And it is found to boost glutathione effect and activity of the crucial enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) in blood and liver.
