Has anyone supplemented with Maca Root and had any positive experiences? I've read/heard that this is a great adaptogen (like ginseng) and has positive effects on mood, hormone production/balancing, etc.

If anyone has any experiences (good or bad) please share them!

Maca rocks! It has absolutely no effect on SA or mood but it gives me a monster rock h*** on..

That's cool that it helps with libido etc. Although a monster h*** on is not really what I'm after, being that I'm a woman.

(Not even after the female equivalent right now...)

So no effect on mood huh?
