Got a question regarding Maca
Original post in this thread

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?

Are you coming up with novel ways of synthesizing these compounds? I'm curious, because I have never seen pure salidroside or tyrosol available outside of rhodiola extract.
Do you think it would be possible to do the same for SJW, i.e. synthesizing pure hyperforin? I think there would be some demand for this product, because it would avoid the potential phototoxicity from the hypericin component of SJW. However, I'm guessing that it's difficult and/or expensive to manufacture pure hyperforin, otherwise it likely would already be available.

They are extremely hard to find, and extremely expensive. We are definitely looking into doing the same thing we did with out Super Rhodiola to other natural extracts. If we can, we will do a SJW one as well.
