    Further information:

    Maca is cultivated as three main variants separated according to the colour of their roots, namely yellow, purple (red) and black. The colours of these roots are mainly determined by the intensity of anthocyanin, a plant pigment with antioxidant properties.. Red Maca is a less common form of maca and is considered to have a higher anti-oxidant content than the yellow maca.
