Maca and hormones
Why not combine the useful (good supplementation) and the agreeable? I do, in the shape of a MacaSure dark, organic chocolate bar :)

I've thus far only used the small chocolate bars as a healthy indulgence, but I have just purchased a bottle of their capsules, so I will let you know how it feels after a few days/weeks of regular supplementation.

The protein powder I use (Vega Whole Health Optimizer - also be Sequel) has maca in it. Has really helped me get back on a regular female cycle even being at low body fat % numbers. Also have read about its benefits in speeding recovery from intense exercise - hard to measure but I have certainly been feeling good lately (after getting off soy protein and onto the vega) ......

The only issue I have with that, is that I don't like Vega's powder :) (taste and consistency). I tried a few of their single-packs and quite apart from the price did not like the product itself - although, from a nutritional point of view, their stuff is excellent!
