Description
Maca (Lepidium meyenii) is an indigenous Andean vegetable that has been grown and cultivated as a root crop for over 2,000 years. The Maca root grows in the mountains of Peru at altitudes of 7,000 to 11,000 feet, making it the highest altitude growing plant in the world. The Maca plant is a cruciferous vegetable, which means it belongs to the same family as the brusells sprouts, mustard greens, swiss chard, watercress and turnip NUTRITION FACTS PER 10 GAMOUNT% DAILY VALUECalories35-Fat0 g0%Saturated0 g0%+Trans0 g%Cholesterol0 mg-Sodium0 mg0%Carbohydrate7 g2%Fibre2 g9%Sugars4 g-Protein2 g-Vitamin A-0%Vitamin C-0%Calcium-4%Iron-120%
