BREAKING THE MISCONCEPTIONS
ABOUT GELATINIZED MACA:
There are many misconceptions being currently promoted about gelatinized Maca on OTHER web
sites. This is unfortunate.
Here, Herbs America outlines some basic truths and facts regarding gelatinized Maca:
*
Gelatinized Maca is NOT a proprietary or
patented process... Nor is it the only source of Maca used in clinical trials.
*
It is NOT an extracted alcoholic concentrate.
*
Gelatinized Maca does NOT
carry any registered trademarks in Peru or in the USA. In addition, there are
no exclusive dealerships of gelatinized Maca offered by institutions,
laboratories or universities in Peru.
We urge you to shop and compare; Find out which
companies actually have insured their products and certified them for
distribution into the strictest natural food channels in the USA, and others
which are only internet facades.
While you do this, you will also notice our Maca Magic retail prices for Gelatinized Maca are less than
half the price that other web based companies offer. Why?
Herbs America and
its network of Peruvian researchers and Doctors have more than 100 combined
years actually working in Peru and were among the first to help pioneer the
industry. We now supply several hundred manufactures with raw materials and
sell our own brand name products in high quality, organic, and natural foods
stores in the USA and abroad. We also manage farms and facilities in Peru
and in the USA. In short, we have a lot more invested in Maca than a retail Internet
shopping cart!
We also attend international and national trade shows and
conduct hundreds of in-store demos and offer slide shows and lectures to
help promote the Maca industry. It is in our best interest never to
misinform the public about the virtues of Maca and the industry. We are
sorry to see some deceptive Internet web-sites popping up and misleading the
public.
At the same time, there are many good workers for Maca, tremendous
spokespeople and tireless proponents, whom we owe our thanks and
congratulations and admiration to: Dr. Gloria Chacon, Dr. Viana Mueller
(Whole World Botanicals), Todd and Duane Rumery–Hinson ( Sunrise Botanicals
& Sound Marketing ), Dr. Hugo Malaspina, Dr. Fernando Cabieses, Dr Artemio
Chang Canales, Dr Lida Obregon, Dr. James Chappell, Chris Kilham, Pure
World Botanicals, Dr. Klaus Wallner, Dr. Miguel Holle, Dr. Carlos Arbizu and
others. For maintaining high standards and working ethically for the
promotion of Maca, we salute these researchers and we recommend their fine
products.
