Maca - Do you need to cycle?

Taking it for the libido and energy boost - does it need to be cycled? I have searched here and the web and found little info. Some say don't have to as it's a food, some say do.
 
IMO just about anything that raises your libido in an acute fashion should be incorporated with periodic breaks in use. I simply find it hard to believe that MACA would keep libido elevated for the rest of our life. Our bodies are notoriously effective at maintaining homeostasis so taking a couple week break every so often should help. You are going to have to play with this to see how often you need to take a break.

Correct
 
OK, I had that suspicion as well. But, from what I read is that it also takes time to build up in your system and to be effective.

Does it work with a weekly cycle like 5 on and 2 off that can be taken for a longer period of time? Or every day for a month or two with a few weeks to a month off (depending on that duration)?

I agree with everything except maca raising your libido in an acute fashion. It's going to take a few days/weeks of chronic dosing to exert its effects.

I was not clear enough with "acute" something that works in a couple weeks to me is acute as compared to something like glucosamine that can takes months. Then again maca is certainly not acute as compared to say a stimulant. Acute was a poor choice of words thank you for pointing that out.

from my experience with macapro effects were felt much sooner than that.

Which is great but your still not getting a libido boost from the first dose (acute). Looks good though I plan on trying it eventually.

within 3 days!!!

if you are a fan of maca then you really should try macapro...tbh i was not thrilled when BPS announced the release of macapro based on my experiences with maca in the past. macapro far exceeded my expectations.
 
I have a bottle of Macapro and a bottle of Endosurge Turbo on the way. It should arrive by Thursday. I have a new lady friend and it would be nice to see how well this stuff works ;)

Should be awesome :) The extract is very potent, with a 20:1 ratio. You won't be disappointed.

I had great sleep and decreased stim tolerance with AdrenoSurge and increased libido with MacaPro. Excellent stack :)
