Produktinformationen
The black maca root - a true treasure
Black maca is considered the most valuable maca variety in terms of the variety and concentration of its constituents. In the Black Maca capsules from Unimedica the powder of the black maca root is combined with vitamin C from acerola and zinc.
Where does maca come from?
The maca plant grows on mineral volcanic soils in the barren highlands of the Peruvian Andes at an altitude of 4,000 metres. It is resilient, as it has to cope with extreme weather conditions. According to legend, the shamans of the Inca prescribed maca after battles or hard work, hoping that the plant’s resilience would be transferred to the warriors.
Natural vitamin C from the acerola cherry + zinc
Black Maca capsules from Unimedica are sensibly complemented with natural vitamin C from acerola extract. A daily dose (4 capsules) contains 12 mg vitamin C. This covers 15% of an adult’s daily requirement for vitamin C (percentage of nutrient reference values in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 (FIC)).
Zinc rounds off this combination:
In addition to vitamin C, our Black Maca capsules contain zinc bisglycinate, in which elemental zinc is bound to two glycine amino acids.
