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 ...

Maca significantly lowers my blood sugar to the point where, even after having breakfast in the morning, by 10:00 am I feel as if I am about to collapse. Only upon having something with a lot of sugar, like candy, I recover (fruit doesnt work).

This stuff is great! I saw it on Dr. Oz one day and was skeptical. .well once I found it, I tried it and it works like a charm! I am unable to use lubricants and it has been a problem for me before I began my Maca journey! It has leveled out my hormones and I am very happy once again with my body! I will use my Maca 3 x daily for as long as I am able to purchase it. Never had any ill side effects. My gf's are all emotional wrecks due to menopause but I am feeling none of that! I tried talking them into Maca but they aren't convinced yet. Please try it. You can't go wrong! I love it..now only if they can make it chocolate flavored!! ;)Read More Read Less

Does give you extra energy and smooths out your moods. Just don't take it late in the day or evening. It will definitely keep you from sleeping well. Take it in the morning with breakfast. Does seem to increase libido.

Needed a boost with my sexual drive, it worked very well. The first couple doses gave me the jitters but afterwards my body adjusted to it.

I researched low libido and natural ways to help with it. I thought it may help a little but was willing to give it a shot. I'm very glad I did. It took about 3 weeks to really kick in but when it did WOW! My girlfriend jokes around and tells me to cut back on the maca! She likes it thou. Makes her feel more wanted and gorgeous! It's a win win. The effects that you read about were all there for me. I wish it kicked in faster but the good thing is that it stays with you if you miss a few days or week. I would recommend this for any male that's feeling older or like low testosterone levels are starting. I wish you lots of luck and hope you have many happy, fun filled maca nights ahead of you.

Used for menopause symptoms and felt great. After using a month my stomach began to hurt. Had to quit using it. I was taking the standard dosage (3 a day).

Was experiencing sleep problems, extreme fatigue, low labido, and gained 50 pounds (which for me was extremely odd because I was thin all my life). I heard about Maca and tried a low dose as an experiment. I definitely felt better and when I stopped symptoms returned. I have recently increased the dose to see if I can feel more back to normal again. So far I have more energy which I hope results in weight loss also.

I am using this for hot flashes. It is helping some but it is expensive not sure yet if it worth it.

I have been taking this for a month to offset post menopausal symptoms and love it. The biggest difference I have seen is a huge increase in energy.
