What is the difference between regular maca powder and gelatinized powder Is there any advantage to one over the other?

Gelatinized maca is processed at higher temperatures than raw maca. This removes the starch from the raw maca roots and leaves a more concentrated form of maca that is easier to digest and absorb.

Maca does not require cooking and be consumed raw. However it makes a great addition to soups and broths, sometimes I even use it as a substitute for flour. Sarah

S.S.--I have much better results with Expresso powder vs Expresso ground coffee. The powder is formed from a water based distilling process and not simply finely ground Expresso beans. The texture & taste is smooth, subtle & delicous in confections, mousse, frostings, ice cream, etc. The powder is more expensive but the results are worth it. J.B.

I have done both and am certain both provide the same amount of probiotics. I like the powder better just because I take so many vitamins every day that I don't want to choke down one more capsule!

While I can see a difference in granulated garlic and garlic powder I am not sure there is any difference as this is like a powdered texture. The taste is on the sweeter side. I love this brand and have been using it for a couple years.

Considering that the Maca powder is the most expensive, I would have to eliminate it from the 4 choices. It really depends on your budget. I have found the chia seed, goji berries and cacao powder and nibs in the $6.00 average range each in local "Best for Less" type stores.

With all supplements, capsules are usually the same powder packed into gelatin shells. They bio-availability is basically identical, but you are paying a premium for convienience and gelatin. As a warning, this product does not mix easily, so order your magic potion shaken not stirred.

Mainly the flavor. The flavor of the liquid is not great, where as the powder is better tasting, but does have a somewhat chalky texture. It's not bad and I definitely prefer the powder over the liquid form.Also, with the powder you may be able to mix with other supplements like proteins or possibly a powder multivitamin.

This is anecdotal, but I found the raw powder to be more effective. I find the capsules to be much more convenient however.

Hi Tiffany, one sheet or leaf of gelatin weighs 1/10th of one ounce which is equal to 1 teaspoon of the powdered gelatin that comes in sachets. The only benefit really for using the gelatin leaves over the sachets is that you don't have to spend time stirring the powder until it is completely dissolved in water, with the leaves you just have to immerse them in water for a few seconds to soften and then remove them immediately and place the "melting" leaves into your mixture and then stir to incorporate the gelatin evenly. If you look online at recipes that call for gelatin, you will see a conversion between using the sachets versus the leaves which will help guide you. Hope this is helpful. Regards. Lorraine

I don't know what you mean by powder. But it is not gel. The stick itself is solid but goes on great. It is more wax like than powder. Hope that answers your question.

Hi Troy, Maca Powder can mixed into smoothies, home made desserts, coffee, hot chocolate, and just about any other beverage you can think of. It also goes great in soups, broths, fruit pies jams and any other type of cooking. Don't be afraid to experiment with it.

There are seed fragments in the powder and whole chia seeds. When mixed with water or a combination of water and juice or milk, this powder will after a few minutes become somewhat gelatinous. I like this behavior in how easily it is to drink when it slides down your throat. The flavor of this is pretty good, actually.

Believe it's the same powder, it's personal preference. I don't like to add to my food or water with a fiber supplement. I prefer pills, I take them in the evening :)

I like the powder form. You could premix but it does not take long to disslve the poder. For me I would mix it it if whrn it is time for me to drink it.
