Maca Gelatinised

Also called maca root, lepidium meyenii, peruvian ginseng.

The best price per 1.5 g and per month across 2 UK retailers, and where to buy it cheapest. A unit for comparing, not advice.

Comparing maca

We count the maca root a label states per serving, whatever the pack size or the serving size, so every product sits on one scale. Maca comes as raw powder, gelatinised and extract, and each form has its own table, because someone buying one would not usually take another as a like-for-like substitute. Products that combine maca with other ingredients are listed separately, because their price buys more than maca root. 1.5 g is our unit for comparing prices, not a dose to take: the label’s directions and a pharmacist decide that.

Prices last checked: . Ranked purely by price per 1.5 g — a comparison unit, not a recommendation. We earn commission when you buy through these links; it never affects the order.

By shop

Each shop's maca products, with where its cheapest sits in the market.

How we work out these prices

We count the weight of extract per serving. Where a label quotes a “whole herb equivalent” (for example “5,000 mg from a 10:1 extract”), we use the actual extract weight. Branded, standardised extracts are compared separately from unbranded ones.
