What Is Gelatinized Maca?

Gelatinized maca powder is maca that has been heated and pressurized to break down the starch content. Basically, it helps make maca easier to digest*.

No, it does not contain gelatin! Maca is a vegan product.

Is Maca Safe?

As with anything you put into your body, you may want to do your research. While maca does not contain any hormone compounds, it has been shown to boost estrogen and balance hormone levels.

So while it may be beneficial for women going through menopause or who have PMS, it should be used with caution for people hormone-sensitive conditions. It can also effect people with thyroid issues*.

How To Make This Recipe

1. Pour hot coffee into a mug. Pour maca powder, mushroom powder, cacao powder, maple syrup, and spices into the mug. Whisk with a fork so that powders blend in.
2. Froth soy milk. If you don't have a milk frother you can blend it in a high speed blender, or shake it in a mason jar with a secure lid with a towel over it.
3. Pour soy milk over coffee. Spoon foam on top.

Notes

*Do NOT put hot soy milk in a Nutribullet! If you want to use a Nutribullet, you'll need to blend cold soy milk because it doesn't do well with hot liquids.

**Important! If you are gluten free you may want to avoid coffee altogether. I personally have never had a problem drinking it, and I have a gluten intolerance. It is probably because I drink whole bean organic coffee, and grind it myself. I learned that it can be problematic for people who don't tolerate gluten. So I did some research and one article mentioned to try organic whole bean coffee because it isn't highly processed causing cross-reactivity issues. So please do the research yourself, and test it out. I try to only post recipes that are 100% gluten free since I have a gluten intolerance. I am really careful about avoiding gluten in my daily life.
