Organic Lucuma Powder

Widely available in powder form, lucuma is often touted as a rich source of nutrients including beta-carotene, vitamin B3, iron, zinc, calcium, magnesium, and other vitamins and minerals. It also contains protein, antioxidants, and dietary fiber. This ultra-nutritious fruit is native to Peru, and packed with vitamins, minerals, and a delicious sweet taste. This is in part because though a lucuma looks like an innocuous cross between an avocado and a mango, it tastes more like a mellow sweet potato that's laced with caramel and maple.

In particular, lucuma is a good source of zinc, calcium, vitamin C, niacin (vitamin B3) and iron. As suggested by its brilliant yellow color, lucuma is particularly high in beta-carotene, which our body requires for making Vitamin A and regulating the immune system.
