I saw those, too, when looking online. I sooooo hope that I have your same luck with the powder I bought. </p> <p>@Happygal: Thanks for the heads up! I will go over there asap!</p> <p>@PinkElephant: Oh I would love this kind of luck! I put some maca powder in DH's smoothie and he didn't even know the difference. When you day your friends did a smoothie "detox" can you explain what you mean? Did they just drink maca smoothies all day for a month? Or just one a day? Thanks!! I crave specifics. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maca-powder#post-1377976 Mon, 27 Jan 2014 09:09:35 +0000 PinkElephant 1377976@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Completely anecdotal evidence, but I know two couples who got pregnant the same month that both the husband &amp; wife did a smoothie/juice detox that involved a daily dose maca powder. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maca-powder#post-1377905 Mon, 27 Jan 2014 08:12:32 +0000 Happygal 1377905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMcD: if you want to read more about it, I recommend heading over to mothering.com. If you google "mothering.com+maca", you'll see there's a lot of discussion about it; in fact, there's an entire lengthy "TTC with MACA" thread! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maca-powder#post-1377894 Mon, 27 Jan 2014 08:00:20 +0000 skipper2010 1377894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsMcD: I never tried the powder, but I used to take 3 capsules a day to help balance my hormones for normal ovulation. Could have been total coincidence, but I got my BFP that month. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maca-powder#post-1377876 Mon, 27 Jan 2014 07:48:47 +0000 MamaBehr 1377876@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never had it, but my BFF uses it in smoothies. I don't remember why though, but it does serve a purpose. :) hope that helps a little. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maca-powder#post-1377715 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 23:03:05 +0000 spaniellove 1377715@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I had it once or twice in a smoothie in Peru? Not for any specific purpose but the drink came that way so I'm guessing they blended in the powder. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/maca-powder#post-1377673 Sun, 26 Jan 2014 22:34:51 +0000 deactivated_account 1377673@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has anyone used maca powder for trying to conceive purposes? Or for any purposes, I suppose. I just bought some and am wondering how to use it. Shakes? How else? And do you think it helped you? Thanks in advance for sharing your info, girls! </p>
