Organic Gelatinized Red Maca Powder

I am 55 and started having frequent, intense hot flashes more than a year ago, suffering the sleep disturbances and reduced quality of life that go along with them. For almost a year I took low-dose birth control pills for relief, but when the prescription ran out I decided to find a non-pharmaceutical solution. About a month ago, I decided to give The Maca Team's red maca a try after experimenting with many other natural remedies (apple cider vinegar, black cohosh, fish oil, progesterone cream, various vitamins and minerals ...) with limited success. At this point I feel ready to say that this is that rare product that actually helps significantly. Following The Maca Team's advice, I started out with a small amount and gradually increased the daily dose. I am now taking 3 teaspoons total per day (1 1/2 teaspoons in the morning and the same amount in the afternoon). I experience very few hot flashes during the day, although I'm still getting several per night. As an experiment, I tried upping the daily amount to 2 tablespoons -- 1 tablespoon first thing in the morning and another in mid-afternoon. After each dose, I enjoyed 6 hours completely hot flash-free! The downside was that I had trouble getting to sleep at night, so I've gone back to 3 teaspoons per day. I'll continue fine-tuning the amounts and times until I find what works best for me. I have also experimented with how I take the maca. My favorite way is to put it into a mug, pour hot tea over it and stir till the maca is completely dissolved, and then add a splash of almond milk. I think it tastes great this way! I just placed another order for red maca -- this time the raw kind, to see if I notice any difference -- and fully expect to experience continued benefits from it. Thank you, Maca Team!

I ordered the red gelatinized maca for myself after doing alot of research to find out what would help my out of control hormones, breakouts, mood swings, irregular menstrual cycles etc. After about 5 days I could tell a slight difference in my mood and energy. Now I've been taking maca every morning for about a month. I've noticed more of a change in energy, better sleep, increased libido, better focus, less breakouts, even better stabilized mood and with my first cycle it was actually more on the "normal" side. I'll continue to take maca and have been recommending it to a lot of my friends and family. I'll be ordering more soon.
