How is Peruvian Magic Maca powder used and how much should be taken daily?
Peruvian Magic Maca powder (Peruanska čarobna maka u prahu) from the Serbian brand Zdravo bilje (Dakar d.o.o.) is a food supplement made of powdered maca root. Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is a plant that grows at altitudes above 2,000 metres in the Andes; its root, similar in shape to a radish or turnip, has traditionally been used as food in Peru.
According to the manufacturer, the maca is certified as an organic product. The powder has a slightly sweet taste, so it can easily be added to drinks, yoghurt, smoothies or desserts. Retail listings describe the product as gluten-free, non-GMO and vegan.
The 150 g can is the larger powder pack of this product – it is also available as a 100 g powder and as capsules (30, 75 and 150 capsules). At the recommended 2–5 g a day, one can lasts about 30 to 75 days.

- Maca root powder (Lepidium meyenii), certified organic according to the manufacturer.

- Simple dosage: 2–5 g a day, which is about 1–2 level teaspoons.

Retailers recommend taking it during the day rather than in the evening. Anyone who prefers a tasteless, precisely dosed form can choose the capsules of the same product.
Important notes
- Pregnant and breastfeeding women should not use maca without consulting a doctor.
- People with thyroid disorders or hormone-sensitive conditions, and anyone taking medicines regularly, should consult their doctor before use.
- Do not take in uncontrolled amounts; do not exceed the recommended daily dose.
- Food supplements are not a substitute for a varied diet and a healthy lifestyle.
Pharmacist's advice:
Start with the lower amount of about 2 g (one level teaspoon) a day and add it to your breakfast – for example to yoghurt, porridge or a smoothie. Its slightly sweet, nutty taste goes well with banana, cocoa and cinnamon. Close the can well after each use so that the powder stays dry.
Maca is a food, not a quick fix for persistent fatigue: if you feel tired for a long time, have your blood count, iron and thyroid checked with your doctor. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, do not use maca without medical advice.
