Anyone try Peruvian Organic Maca

[goldie66]

Hi girls,I've been reading up on past success posts on here and came across Maca..

I willing to try other natural supplements now as we've been ttc 11mths now..

I turn 41 tomorrow,so really need it to happen soon.we were on a break from TTC for couple of mths as it put alot of stress on our relationship and ttc..
It has done us the world of good

I have been doing acupuncture since August and it really has helped me de-stress.

So i'm back now with a bang and try again without all the stress..

I've just ordered Maca Root Powder, Organic, Raw, Peruvian 1Kg
£18.00,it also comes in tablet form..

Would love to hear if anyone else has tried??

Here is just two of the links I've found..

I haven't tried Maca myself, but I would just urge a little bit of caution as it is a stimulant, it is not recommended for people who suffer from sleep disorders or anxiety.

^WSS If you suffer from insomnia (like me) do not take maca. I tried it once and it gave me the worst insomnia which carried on for a couple of months after I stopped taking it.

Also not recommended for anyone with high blood pressure bc of the stimulating effects.

Best of luck with the Maca, but do keep an eye on yourself and if you feel anxious or have troubles sleeping then stop it straight away

A lot of us are on COQ10 for egg quality, you might want to give that a go, it doesn't seem to have many adverse side effects - there's a thread on it on 35+

I must go over to that thread,thanks your a star.. xxx

Hey Goldie,

Just wondering if you've tried the Maca yet and how it's affecting you? I've been on it for 2-3 weeks now and feel like it has been balancing my hormones a little bit and definitely helped me with the energy. I take one in the am, but haven't noticed any insomnia or anxiety now that my body has had a chance to adjust to it.
