CORRECTING MACA MISCONCEPTIONS… There is no such thing as “male” maca or “female” maca. Maca is not Peruvian ginseng. It bears no relation to ginseng at all. ALL colors of maca grow in the same fields from the same soil. Every batch of maca contains red, yellow, crema, green, bluish, black and other colors of maca. NOBODY is growing single color maca. I have worked with the top maca geneticist. There is no known known difference in maca from one color to another. I understand that companies want to create a mystique or proclaim “new science” to gain a market advantage, but offering misinformation isn’t the preferred way to accomplish this. Maca is an amazing food with highly beneficial qualities, period. Look for certified organic maca, and pay no attention to claims of male, female, or special colors. Best to you all. Happy trails- Chris Kilham.
