Guest guest Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 My wife buys the 4 oz cups of Applesauce no suger I mix a 1/2 tsp in it in the morning and at noon I put it 1/2 tsp in my yougrt. This amouts to 4 grams a day. I did not see anything because it is so slow untill I stopped using it. Phil " J. Cameron " <camdavis@...> wrote: I bought some powered Peruvian maca from macaweb.com. This is supposed to increase libido isn't it? What's the right amount to take? Should it be taken with food? Is there anything to mix it with to cover up the vile taste of the maca? How long before it kicks in? Thanks for any advice given. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 Cameron, I started taking 3grams of Maca (in tablet form)about 3 1/2 weeks ago. At the same time I started unsing about60mg of Zinc. I noticed a great improvement in my nocturnal and morning erections, and increased libido. I find it easier than before to acheive and maintain an erection as well. Now, this could be 'cos of the Maca or 'cos of the Zinc. I'm not sure which. Both increase testosterone levels in the body. In a couple of weeks, I may stop one of these so that I can figure out which is having an effect on me - perhaps both of them are. As for dosage, Maca is classified as a 'food' - so there is no limit (theoratically) to what one can take. Also, I don't think matter too much if it's taken with food or not. All the best, and keep us posted as to how Maca is working out for you. > > > > > > I bought some powered Peruvian maca from macaweb.com. This is > > supposed to increase libido isn't it?

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2004 Report Share Posted October 13, 2004 The following links provide some dosage guidelines. Some people take as much as 3 teaspoons once a day in the morning. http://www.medicine-plants.com/articles/73/ http://allaboutmaca.dreamstation.com/ The following link is the best and cheapest source for Maca. They sell 1kg for $30 whereas macaweb.com sells it for $50. http://www.therootofthematter.ca/cgi-bin/itsmy/go.exe? page=1 & domain=12 & webdir=therootofthematter Maca doesn't taste that bad and one can usually just mix it with water and drink. I had to stop using Maca because it was causing problems for my hypoglycemia because of it's high carbohydrate and fructose content. You should see some results within 1-2 weeks. > > > I bought some powered Peruvian maca from macaweb.com. This is > supposed to increase libido isn't it? What's the right amount to > take?
