Dark Gelatinized Maca

I have been taking Herbolab's Maca capsules for about 6-7 months and it definitely is working as advertised. The Maca capsules are helping (along with Herbolab's Tongkat Ali capsules) to regulate and balance my hormonal system, increase my energy and stamina and definitely increase my desire. I have said in another review for another supplement (since I talk all of Herbolab's products) that each supplement they offer focuses on different or complementary areas. Herbolab is definitely a supplement that has increased my desire (sex drive). As I also have stated in other Herbolab reviews, I only take 1/2 the recommended dosage and still feed the benefits (i.e., I only take 2 Maca capsules per day vs. 4 that are recommended and still feel its benefits). Herbolab Maca also helps with energy/stamina (notice it when I'm working out at the gym) and with creating a higher volume of ejaculate (and so probably sperm motility as well which can be important if you are trying to get pregnant). Lastly, all of Herbolab's supplements are high-quality products made from higher and better quality ingredients and include the best processing methods for making them. I highly recommend Herbolab Maca!

I am satisfied with the Product.

So while the tongkat ali product they produce is intended to increase your testosterone level, your body may grab up all of the testosterone so that you have no FREE testosterone to do what it needs to do. This is why as part of your testosterone replacement regimen, you need to be taking maca. From the research I've done, this maca is the best quality and most reasonably priced on the market and I've been taking it regularly since August. Along with tongkat ali (tongkat dosage is 10 days on 5 days off 10 days on 5 off every month), I have noticed a definite boost in energy during my workouts. I will be able to report back the results after I have my bloodwork done again shortly.

Love it so much ,its work

Great product, but so many pills come pulverized. Seal is not secure as well.

I have been using a variety of maca powders for the past 3 years. I was curious to try a black/purple maca after listening to a podcast from the superfood hunter, Darren Olien.The very first thing that I noticed is that the potency of this product is very high. 2 pills of this product is far more potent than 1 tablespoon of a gelatinized maca powder. They also have benefits that go beyond the standard tan maca. Black maca has an incredible aphrodisiac like effect. I would say that the effect is similar to an extract of fenugreek. It has uplifting qualities that you can almost immediately feel. While there is not a lot of research on this topic, my guess is that it has to do with the fact that black maca has hormone regulatory effects. Overall, I would definitely recommend this product, unless someone is super sensitive to adaptogenic substances.

I have used cheaper supplements that worked better.

Maca has countless health benefits and will likely start becoming one of the superfoods being talked about everywhere in the near future. (Like chia, flax, quinoa...). I’ve been a powder Maca user for a few years mixing into yogurt or even in plain water. The pills seemed like a great option to get a bigger serving when I didn’t want to have to carry a powder around. Recommended serving is 2 pills twice a day which would be a month supply in the bottle. I’m starting small with 1 pill twice a day. My stomach has not been upset at all and the pills are easy to swallow. Highly recommend buying to start getting the health benefits
