    Opinions on Maca Root

    I've hearing a lot about the super properties of this ancient substance.

    Have you experience with it?

    Thanks

    Great experience. Maca is a staple in my daily supplement intake. Many endocrinologists recommend it as well. Is there anything specific you want to know about it? It's packed with micronutrients and creates a good balance with glands like the thyroid, adrenal, etc...

    Thanks, Austinite!

    In fact there are three things I would like to know:
    Do you take it daily with no breaks? And if you never stop it, does it still has the same effect?
    Does it really boosts libido? :-)

    Sorry for my poor English. I'm not English native..

    I tried it. It had a mild ergogenic effect. I think it's got a lot of potential, especially at higher dosages.

    Yes, daily. Haven't taken a break yet

    Maca will always work. I've heard of many users report libido boost, but I use other compounds for that, so I can't really tell.

    Get some large capsules, size 00, which will hold 0.9 ml of volume.

    My maca dose is about 2500 mg daily. That's 1/2 of a teaspoon, or 2.7 ml in volume. So you would fill 3 capsules for daily intake.

    You can use a cheap capsule filler to make a batch of 50 at a time.

    In Portugal, and I suppose it's the same in all Europe, Maca is not sold in liquid form, it's in capsules.

    I started Maca this weekend, :-)

    Powder is the best form to take.

    I'm running maca for two weeks, and I'm loving it.

    Wasn't expecting such good results.

    It works (for me)

    I fell good, like I'm happy all the time.

    I have more energy, and I think that my metabolism is bit faster. I'm burning more calories in my workouts, around fifty calories more per workout, it's not much, but it's somenthing. Probably because I have more energy I workout harder, I'm really not sure that my metabolism is faster.

    Someone told me that my sleep would get worst, but I my case, I'm sleeping better since I'm on Maca.

    Saved the best for last.. I'm horny, like all the time. Shit... Is amazing! My libido is so high, and I thought I couldn't get more horny, man, I was wrong. And my loads are huge and the time between ejaculations is much smaller.

    Couldn't be happier.

    Just one thing more, in the first week, I didn't notice almost nothing (nothing at all to be correct)
