- Macamides & Alkaloids: Unique compounds linked to hormonal balance and energy enhancement.
- Antioxidants: Higher levels than yellow/red maca, including flavonoids and phenolic acids.
- Nutrients: Protein, fiber, vitamins (B, C, E), and minerals (iron, calcium, zinc).
- Form: Finely ground powder, often gelatinized (pre-cooked) to reduce starch and enhance digestibility.
