Maca or Maca extract

Does a good Maca extract exist? Sort of like Chocamine for cocao? I had this drink that contains "4:1 Maca Extract" and it had all the effects I typically see with regular gelatinized Maca. I think the dosage for Maca is usually a couple grams which would be a bit much for capsules but it'd be awesome to have a 4:1 extract that would give you a full dose in one capsule.
I'd be interested in a regular gelatinized Maca powder as well but particularly interested if ND could find a good Maca extract/concentrate to offer in capsule form.
Also, I think a Maca and Mushroom blend would be pretty cool. I found this blend which has Maca, Mushroom, Turmeric, and Cocao. The problem is it's proprietary and I would guess they are diluting the more expensive ingredients with the much cheaper cocao. Maca with some mushrooms, a curcumin extract, cocao, and maybe ashwaghanda or rhodiola would be a really good all natural adaptogenic powder blend. It might even be good tasting enough to be used as a kind of golden milk powder.

Raw maca caused me terrible pain. Gelatinized doesn’t, and I love it.

Raw started it with me, but gelatinized also caused it. It has been a long time since I have tried it, though.
