I was at my wits end with lack of sleep with hot flushes and night sweats- I purchased maca capsules from superfood.co.uk out of desperation after trying various alternative therapies including acupuncture. I took 2 capsules as soon as they arrived almost ripping the postmans arm off - unbelievable results on the same day and within three days all night sweats and hot flushes had stopped- ladies ...

I am 64. I have been taking 950 - 1900 mg daily for more than 5 years. There has been period where I forget to take it for 2 or 3 months. Then there are a disruption of my routine diet or stressors that will trigger the hot flashes and emotional sensitivities to remind me I haven't been taking the MACA. It has been an effective staple for me.

I was looking for enhanced sex. This is it! Took 1 capsule for 2 weeks and notice definite tingles of my lady parts. I orgasim easily and this just made it even quicker. I love the effect so I now take 2 twice daily. I'm almost 69 yrs old and enjoying sex even more! My daughter in law started taking it and also loves the effect. You just have to give it time to build up in your system. My man began to use it. He is 73 and we have sex every night and many mornings. He said it has raised his libedo and will continue to take 2 capsules each day.Read More Read Less

I read up on natural products for post menopause and lack of energy and labido seeing Super Maca1500mg, I thought I would give it a try, I'm one a day and all I have experienced are headaches and chest and back pain, I read lots of reviews and people being so positive about the product but I have as yet not experienced it myself, I will continue using 1-2 pills a day and hope I feel a difference. Question, is it safe to use when on thyroid medication and using HRT? Are there other people who suffer from chest pains whilst using Super Maca 1500mg ?Read More Read Less

I love maca powder. It helped me reach my weightless goal. I love to take it in the morning. 1 tsp maca, 1 cup almond milk, 1 banana. Blend. Pour over ice and enjoy before your workout routine. I feel it has helped balance my hormones as well.

While maca did give me increased energy and helped me to sleep better, I had severe itching at the end of each day and horrible bouts of diarrhea. The last straw was 2 nights ago when I was in the bathroom every 10 minutes for 3 hours, until I finally found some Imodium. Couldn’t eat at all the next day. I’m done with maca!

Maca helped me sail thru menopause with hardly any hot flushes. Maca energises me and I’ve continued taking 1 heaped tsp powder for 20 yrs with a few stops in between. I believe it helps with my bone loss. It’s certainly good for my skin and general well being. I am 71 and not on any medication. I either stir it in water or mix thru yoghurt. Please try it.

Maca has been a game changer for me. I started taking 500mg tablets 3 times per day about 3 weeks ago. I’ve experienced many benefits from it including increased libido, more energy, decreased anxiety, and a much calmer feeling overall. It has also cleared up my adult acne (something that I’ve never been able to get under control any other way). Some people say that it keeps them up if they take it before bed, but I haven’t had this experience. I’ve taken it right before bed several times and still slept really good. It has increased my appetite, so I have made sure to exercise regularly while taking it. But the increased energy level has made working out regularly not so difficult to do. If you’re considering taking it, I highly recommend giving Maca a try. Read More Read Less

I tried maca powder mostly to balance my hormones (even though I have endometriosis and it's contraindicated for that condition) - and I have been pleasantly surprised! It gives me a boost in energy, and there gave been noticeable benefits in the bedroom as well. I highly recommend it. I take it as a drink mixed with chocolate powder, cinnamon, and a milk alternative 2-3 days a week.

I took this maca product from Amazon. It had maca, ginseng, and l theanine… After 5 days I had joint pain, testicle pain and muscle pain. Overall inflammation around the body. It did help with libido but not worth the pain. Do not recommend

I started taking maca due to a suggestion that it will give you more libido which is a problem I was having. Another problem I had was constant fatigue (I did not know maca would help fatigue as I hadn’t done much research on it.) Well I took the first dose at night before bed and by the morning I instantly noticed I woke up with more energy. I now feel more energized throughout the day and I don’t feel unmotivated anymore. As for the libido I have noticed a small increase and also have more “fluid” when I am aroused. And I’ve noticed that I let off stronger and sweeter smelling pheromones. Read More Read Less

I take maca once a day in a 3500 dose in a tablet by the brand carusos. I was on the depo shot and recently came off of it due to its effect on my mood and libido. I have only been taking this for close to two weeks and have noticed a HUGE difference! Before I had no sexual desire whatsoever and would go months without wanting sex and it was incredibly painful which sucked for my partner. I now have an even higher sex drive than him!! The results were instant. The pain I used to feel from sex is gone, it feels so much better and I finally feel sexy again!! Really looking forward to seeing how well it works as time goes on!Read More Read Less

I've been using Maca for a few years now and I am so happy with this as a good anti depressent for me to say the truth about this wonderful herbal supplement is the best part of my life I've ever seen before I used Maca to be my best at all I have ever thought I could do this is the best part of my experience ever since I've used Maca to be a very good anti depressent and a lot of strength and energy is very important for me and it makes me feel much better about myself than ever before I used MacaRead More Read Less

Take it for PMDD, has 100% cured my mood and made me feel calmer. Gives me energy if I cant sleep. I still get the fatigue and migraines that are hormonal in origin but those are easier to live and work with than mood swings. I hope more research is done because I suffered forn21 years and took HRT for 8-10 yrs but eventually quit due to side effects. I did notice a slight increase in anxiety for first week but as long as I take it in morning I get used to it pretty quick. I found raw maca worse for anxiety tho, mistake gelatinised which is Cooked. Maca affects thyroid hormones so is not suitable if you have a thyroid condition altho at low doses it's fine and most has slightly more of the thyroid inducing chemical than other basics veg.Read More Read Less

Maca can be dangerous if you are a Sensitive like me. It made me crazy anxious. I am suffering from menapause and was told to buy balanced femme which has ma a in it. Yes my energy is a lot better but the maca makes my head feel so crazy and anxious. I’m torn cause I have more energy. But buyer beware- it can make you feel like you are not yourself.
