Got a question regarding Maca

Original post in this thread

feelsnumbman · 14 points

Hey guys, I noticed there's raw maca and then there's maca. I was wondering what's the differences and if anyone had any experiences with it. I intend on using maca to help me improve my libido and hoping that turns out to be successful. I also heard it could help with fatigue and depression and all but I don't have much hopes for that. Hell, I don't have much hopes for supplements or nootropics in general to really help me out with my condition but I can't really say it worked or not unless I tried.

So I'm wondering: Raw Maca or just Maca, and what brand/product would you guys suggest if I were to buy it on Amazon?

raw maca is for cooking afaik. some people make maca brownies. /u/MisterYouAreSoDumb had a bad reaction to eating raw maca: Raw Maca Root (WARNING)

That really messed me up. Now I cannot even take gelatinized maca.

Something good did come out of it, though. We are going to be making a Super Maca, like our Super Rhodiola. Just the two active compounds in maca, synthesized pure. We are working on that now.

Has anyone tried Excelerol? I'm interested in trying it because it is apparently one of the best nootropics out there, but I'm a bit suspicious because I've never heard anyone talk about it on this subreddit.

Well I looked back at your primary COA for Rhodiola Rosea, and sure enough, it says "Rhodiola Crenulata." So right off the bat things are not looking good. That's a mislabeled product. Rhodiola Crenulata is the most comm

Possible Fake?

Always make sure it says "sold by Nootropics Depot" when buying from us on Amazon. We have brand protection on there, which is supposed to prevent hijacking of our listings. However, they seem to have found a way around

Super Rhodiola?

Replying to cryptohasan · Yes, that was the one that popped up when I researched. I haven't tried it or the plant extract. I just want to know which one would yield better results (aka is stronger). I'm not

We renamed it Salidrosol, and moved it over to Natrium Health. Ceretropic is no more, unfortunately. We shut that down earlier this year. It's the same formula, though. We just renamed it for legal reasons. The idea beh
