National Nutrition interviewed Chef, author and gluten free expert, Kathy Smart and she gave us the inside scoop on her top 4 Organika ingredients for gluten free recipes.
Organika Maca:
Maca, also known as Peruvian Ginseng, is the superfood of one of the oldest, most advanced civilizations on earth- the Incas. Organika®’s Maca powder is made exclusively from the yellow Maca root, most used by Peruvians in daily life. Maca is a nutrient dense, adaptogenic, cruciferous root. Gelatinization breaks down the starch molecules, creating a starch-free powder. This makes it more soluble than regular powders, and thus easier to digest, great for those with sensitive stomachs. Maca contains over 55 beneficial and naturally occurring phyto-chemicals that play a critical role in the hormonal health of our body, affecting our brain, thyroid gland, immune and reproduction systems, making it excellent for balancing hormones. Maca is rich in the dietary minerals calcium and potassium , and contains the trace elements: iron, iodine, copper, manganese, and zinc as well as fatty acids linolenic acid, palmitic acid, and oleic acids. Organika’s Maca is an exceptionally versatile powder with a nutty, vanilla taste that compliments smoothies, yogurt, milkshakes, and cereals.
