Maca Root Powder (Comext) is a food-grade botanical ingredient supplied as a dry root powder made from maca (Lepidium meyenii), a Brassicaceae plant traditionally cultivated in the Andes and commonly processed into a stable powdered format for global ingredient supply chains.
In B2B formulation, maca root powder is commonly used in daily wellness and performance-oriented product concepts where a recognizable “maca root” ingredient is desired. From a technical standpoint, it supports a broad range of dry manufacturing formats and is listed as particle soluble in water, which can support dispersion in select premix and beverage-style systems (final performance depends on the complete formulation).

- Functional foods & beverages (instant drink mixes, nutrition premixes—application dependent)
- Botanical blend formulations (general wellness positioning; claims depend on market)
