UPDATE 2/28/14
i GOT my period again. thats 3 months in a row. I can't believe its becoming regular without the painful side effects of birth-control. 12/13/13 - 12/19, 1/23/14 - 1/29/14 42 days apart, 2/28/14 37 days apart. I even have a little PMS. Its just 1 day I feel a little sad. Like I cry at corny things. But that's it. I'm off maca for a week since i got my period. I'm gonna start up when its over. I can't believe that I had to go through all those years of bleeding and birth-control and there was something out there that works and i've never felt better. Its really a shame.
I am 35, overweight, I am very lazy, I have depression, mood swings, my hormones are all over the place, I can go months even years without a period. I never really feel like doing anything. No energy, no endurance, no sex drive! I have diabetes and PCOS. I am a recovering drug addict. Despite years of trying I can't seem to get pregnant. I heard about MACA and decided to give it a try. The 1st day I tried it I was amazed, I felt great, within minutes I had energy, and it lasted all day. I had a get up and go feeling, focused and awake. After a few days all the great results continued but I started to spot a little. I read up on it and it said it might happen it just means your body is getting in balance and your hormones are getting regulated. I was amazed. I can't believe its already working. Its been 2 weeks now and I still feel amazing. I'm getting more stuff done, I feel positive and more motivated to get healthier and in shape. I've been eating better, working out a little and lost some weight. I feel like my body is finally working the way it is suppose to. I have 1 teaspoon twice a day. 1 teaspoon is equal to 3000mg - 3g of maca. The spotting stopped for a few days and now it started again. I got my period last month (before I started taking maca) and most of the time I won't get it again for a few months or longer but If the maca works I should be getting it sometime in the next week. I will update if i do. One more thing, my husband and I had sex a few days ago and I don't know if its the maca getting my body back to normal but i had the most intense, amazing O of my life! WOW!
UPDATE*** 1-23-14 I got my period today. Two months in a row. I had my period since 10yrs old. Since then its been off. By 20 I was bleeding everyday for 2 years, after that no period for 2 years. I've tried provera, birth control and of course would get it but it would last months and it was extremely painful and I was very weak from it. If I didn't take BC I wouldn't get my period most of the time. And believe me after bleeding like that i didn't care if i got it or not but I knew without a period i couldn't get pregnant. 2012 I lost 50 pounds due to drug addiction, 2013 FEB I got clean and gained 40 back but To my surprise i got my period in MARCH 2013 And 3 times since then, very painful and long. Sometimes bleeding through a tampon & a pad within an hour. But its better than nothing. So without Maca I got my period 3 times this year, and the last time was Dec 2013, with maca I got it 2 months in a row. So I really believe this stuff works. And I have no negative side effects what so ever. I have better mood, positive energy, I feel happy and smile more, my mood swings are 95% better. I feel my age instead of 99 yrs old.
I don't know about weight gain with Maca Since I've been on it I've lost 13 pounds. Not just from Maca I replace 1-2 meals with a green protein shake but like I said I take 2 tsp a day of maca. And so far no weight gain just loss.
I will keep updating! I am so excited!

Great nutritious balancing product to be used during the day up to 4:pm
Great for all adult ages. Im a big fan of this product and have been using it religiously everyday since ive learned about it several years ago. This product have helped my general health & wellness as well as my immune system. If you are looking for a taste, this is not for you. The product by nature is VERY health beneficial but it doesn't have a pleasant taste... It will makes your drink foggy; and it needs help to be devolved. However regarding the taste, I've learned when mixing it with small amount of milk or juice it helps a lot & making it easy to consume.It helps pleasantly your energy level( not like an energy drink effects) and it balances your hormones, and much more. Im NOT going to give up on this product. GREATLY RECOMENDED!
