Maca Gold Products only supply Maca Gold* which is 100% Lepidium Peruvianum Chacon species of organic maca.

Maca Plant Lepidium Meyenii, is the overall botanical name of the Maca group. However there is a variance between this and our product, which is Lepidium peruvianum Chacon. Ours refers to the name given to the plant of the maca group that Dr Gloria Chacon found was the only one to contain 4 essential alkaloids of the traditional medicinal plant, missing in the common Meyenii plant of lower altitudes.

Lepidium peruvianum Chacon is listed in herbariums

(after Dr Chacon) in the USA, UK and Europe as the botanical name of this plant found to grow only above 12,500 feet where the traditional medicinal plant has always been grown. The maca plant does grow below this altitude but it then lacks many of the medicinal benefits and becomes very similar in its uses to any root (food) crop, and is known as Lepidium Meyenii.

At present there is a huge surplus of inferior Maca on the market in Peru,as large areas were planted at lower altitudes by investors seeking to ride on the maca wave of expansion throughout the world. We have companies from Peru wishing to sell maca at very low prices constantly approaching us, however we have continued to buy direct from the traditional farmers of maca through their traditional buyers to maintain the medicinal qualities, potency and purity of our product.
