    5 Things To Consider Before Buying Maca Online

    5 Things To Consider Before Buying Maca Online
    Maca is now available in many health food stores, but best way to purchase it is still to buy it online (as long as you have all the facts). I've put this article to give you a "buyer's guide" to purchasing Peru's favorite superfood on the internet. Here are 5 tips that will get you the best products possible.

    How Fresh Is Your Maca?

    As long as it's stored in the proper conditions, Maca has a shelf life of about 2 years. In order for it's potency to be preserved it must be stored out of direct light and humidity and in a very low oxygen environment. Of course, the fresher the product you get, the more potent it is. That's why you should always find out when your Maca was harvested. Each year Maca roots in Peru are harvested in May/June. Ideally you want to purchase products from the most recent harvest. This is easier to do when you buy online since Maca in health food stores tends to sit around longer.

    Is Your Maca Certified Organic?

    One thing that's great about Peru is that it has banned all GMOs until 2021. That means all Maca is GMO free. But it doesn't mean that all of it is organic. Some farmers do use chemical fertilizers as well as pesticides on their crops. For that reason it is very important to request "certified organic" when you purchase.

    A Better Selection of Maca Online?

    Maca roots grow in a variety of colors ranging from white to dark gray. Each of the colors has been shown to have different properties and work better for certain conditions than others. Most health food stores carry the most common type o (cream/yellow). While it does have many of the standard benefits of Maca, it's not a good for several things as is Red or Black Maca. When you buy Maca online, you simply have a greater choice.

    Is Buying Online Cheaper?

    When you purchase through the internet, you tend to save money even when you factor in the shipping. In one recent look at Maca prices in health food stores, we saw that the exact same products cost on average 20% more in the store than online. It's simply a reality of the lower cost of running an online shop compared to running a health food store.

    Better Information Online

    One final thing that you get when you buy Maca online is better information and support. You can get full dosage guidelines, recipes, hints and other great suggestions for using Maca much easier on the web than in a store.

    I hope this article has helped you in terms of where and how to buy Maca online. Any questions please let me know.
