Your story made me laugh, but that would have been embarrassing! But, I kind of have that same feeling sometimes blogging about it. I should have some type of disclaimer saying that's NOT why I am interested in it! LOL <br/><br/>I think that Maca Magic has some great products. I am excited to try more of them. <br/><br/>How much are you taking a day? I am taking three teaspoons right now. <br/><br/>And do report back on whether you notice any difference using it. :-) I would love to hear how it goes for you. <br/><br/>Kimi Deborah,

I have a funny story about buying it, tho! I had read about it on a healthy-eating email list as a remedy for PMS. So, I head to the local Whole Foods and I'm looking all through the women's supplement section, finding nothing, when I finally ask if they carry maca. The clerk gave me a "knowing" smile and took me over to the va-va-voom section of herbs. I was soooooooooooooo embarrassed!!! I very loudly explained I was looking into maca for PMS ;)<br/><br/>The bottle I purchased from Whole Foods was called Maca Magic. I plan to try the maca from Mountain Rose Herbs soon as I am ordering from them some other stuff.<br/><br/>I HAVE noticed my fingers and toes are not nearly as chilled as normal. I did still have PMS this month, unfortunately! :)<br/><br/>I'll be eagerly watching/reading your research. Thanks for sharing.<br/><br/>Deborah Hi there!

Thank you for doing this review of different products, as I wouldn't know which one to pick. <br/><br/>I have low thyroid and am working on getting off of a medication and will be trying out maca. I am looking forward to more reviews and hopefully some full healing. <br/><br/>Blessings,<br/>Mrs. S I have been reading about maca all over the place in blogland it seems.

I can relate because not only did I go through premature labor with Elena, we lost our first baby at two months, waiting for a heart transplant. Pregnancy can be a wonderful thing, but it can also be scary when things go wrong. <br/><br/>I will be sharing some of research about maca later (next week, hopefully), but I am afraid I don't have a lot of research to give about preventing premature labor. Maca is just starting to get "tested" for different things, and they are mostly concentrating on other aspects of the root. But it is exciting that it is a traditional use of it! <br/><br/>Depending on how this trial run goes, and depending on whether we are blessed with another pregnancy, I would be interested in taking it, for sure, to see whether it helps or not. :-) Brandy,

I wish I would have known about this four years ago! One of my daughters was orginally a twin. When I lost the one, my body began threatening the life of our little survivor. In order to preserve the pregnancy, my OB put me on progesterone in a pill form. It was synthetic and made me have horrible morning sickness, must worse than any of my other pregnancies, plus I gained almost three times what I usually gain. I feel I have never recovered my metabolism from that pregnancy, even though our daughter is almost four! I can't help but wonder if this maca product you are talking about would have been a superior option for me.<br/><br/>Of course, what I did at the time was worth it since I have a little girl to show for it. :) Wow!
