On Maca

I was on HRT for 14 years.  My doctor told me I had to come off it last year.  She recommended a few products to help with the hot flashes and fatigue but nothing I tried did any good.  The hot flashes were horrendous, they woke me up several times during the night.  Then my friend told me about this maca.   I didn’t have much faith that it would do anything for me but I started off with 6 capsules a day.  After 5 days I started to notice I was having less flashes and I wasn’t waking up as much at night.  After about 3 weeks on it I was down to having only 1 or 2 flashes a day and I was sleeping right through the night! I then decided to up it to 8 caps a day to see if I could get rid of the sweats entirely.  Bingo! I am delighted to report I now have no hot flashes at all and I have loads of energy too.  This maca stuff is magic.

I was suffering every month really badly with PMS.  I am a single parent and I used to have such a profound personality change, becoming really irritable that my daughter used to say to me ‘oh you must be getting your period’. I used to feel so tired and anxious at least 7-10 days out of every month.  I had tried evening remedy at my health shop and primrose oil, some B vitamins and even went on progesterone for a couple of months but I didn’t get any relief until I took maca. Now I just get a little more emotional  for a day or two around my period.    Very manageable.  The anxiety & irritability is gone.  I take 3 capsules a day. I am so grateful to have discovered the answer to my problem.  You’ve changed my life!

I was having 30 hot flushes a day and only sleeping about 2 hours a night.  It was horrendous.  I had to keep turning my pillow over coz it was so hot. I had tried all the stuff on offer at the health shop and was waiting for months at a time to feel the benefits. None of them worked for me. My menopause symptoms started a year and a half ago. After being on Maca for 2 weeks I was down to 2 flashes a day and started sleeping through the night.  I’m on it now nearly 7 weeks & I’ve had no flushes at all for nearly 2 weeks.  It’s absolutely brilliant!

Just wanted to say a big thank you!  I am 42 years old and work as a Chef so I’m on my feet all day everyday.  I used to work out a few times a week and was fairly fit.  When I became a parent for the first time 4 years ago I got out of the habit of exercising.  I have been feeling very lethargic and finding it more and more difficult to get through the day without drinking several cups of coffee for a pick me up.   My sister told me she was taking maca and suggested I try it.  About two months ago I started taking 8 of your  capsules every morning. I only take them 6 days a week like recommended.  I have to say it’s really made a difference, I’ve been able to stop drinking all that extra coffee and my wife is grateful because it’s definitely given my libido a boost too!

I’ve been on the Maca now nearly 2 months.  I’m 74 years of age.  My sewer got blocked last weekend and when this happens I usually get overwhelmed & let my son sort it out. But this time I fixed it myself!  My daughter was visiting and just couldn’t get over the change in me. I have so much more stamina now & I’m sleeping so well and it’s all because of your Maca.  I’m taking the 6 caps every day like you recommended.

“I’m a college student and I’ve just finished my first bottle of your gelatinized maca. I’ve taken one teaspoon every morning since I got it.  Wow! is all I can say it’s really helped me focus and seems to give me more mental clarity.  I find it much easier to get down to study.”

On Hoodia Gordonii

Started taking it 3 weeks ago.  I didn’t feel any real difference until I was on it about 5 days. Went to a party where they had a buffet, all lovely food that I’d normally be incapable of resisting. I couldn’t believe it, I half filled my plate and then only ate about half of that and I was FULL!!  It’s just brilliant I’ve already lost 10 pounds and I haven’t felt hungry at all. I've been trying to lose weight for years, I’m telling all my friends about your site.

    Sharon,  London

With Hoodia I can resist junk food, Chinese food, Pringles sour cream & onion my favourite.  Since I started this diet 2 months ago I’ve been taken 6 a day.  2 before breakfast, lunch and dinner.   I’ve lost 17 pounds.  My goal is 9½ Stone and I’m nearly there. Can’t thank you enough. I’m going to keep taking 3 a day once I get there.  When I lose it I never want to put on all that weight again.

    Ena Buchanan,  Co. Offally

About the Hoodia, I started about 5 weeks ago. I was 11 stone, just weighed myself this morning and I’m 10 stone, it was no problem.  I want to order 3 more bottles.

It’s really working, Wondrous Herbs organic Hoodia gordonii is nothing like anything else I've ever taken in my life for dieting. It's amazing, and I'd recommend it to ANYONE who's ever thought about losing weight!

    Rita,  Middlesex

“I have to tell you I was very skeptical. I have tried a good few different diet products.  A co-worker told me about your product, and I decided to give it a try. I am much less hungry, and have lost 7 pounds in 3 weeks. I have to say, I haven’t even been trying hard at all.”

    Harve,  Dublin

I have been taking Hoodia gordonii for eight weeks. I first noticed a change in my eating habits after about two weeks. I take two at 7:30am, two at 12 Noon and two at 4pm. I never feel hungry and at times have to literally force myself to eat. I don’t scoff leftovers anymore! I am continuing to lose pounds. I am healthier, slimmer and happier than I have been in years with no effort at all.

If you’ve been struggling to lose weight or can’t even motivate yourself to start the battle this is what you’ve been waiting for!! Look no further! Hoodia gordonii is your answer to curbing your appetite without effort. I would have sold my soul to get my hands on this when I was in my late teens and twenties… luckily it wasn’t around then!

    Karen J., Galway, Ireland

Hi there,
I recently purchased some Hoodia Gordonii from you as I wanted to try and curb my constant appetite.  I had been bombarded for a long time with e-mails form various U.S companies advertising it effectiveness. I had been trying for a long time to source it in Ireland and only came accross your company on Sustainable.ie a few weeks ago.  I have been on Hoodia for just over a week now and I am delighted so say that it really does work! I am still eating my square meals every day but end up eating smaller portions. I no longer feel constantly hungry (even after eating large meals) and don't nip in for a bag of chips on my way home after work for dinner...  I no longer snack either in between meals and feel way better in myself for it.  My husband to be is amazed at the fact that he tries to tempt me with desserts and snacks and there is no way that I will give in.
So thank you very much for selling a product that actually works - I have tried other various pills (Tony Quinn amino or/engergise) which are twice the price and no way close to being as effective as your hoodia.  My partner is now enquiring about them and said that he wants some the next time I place an order.I look forward to dealing with you again in the very near future.  Many thanks,

    O. Savage, Galway

I thought since today is my 40th whole day of taking your Hoodia I would let you know how it is going. I am very happy to report that this is working EXTREMLY WELL! I am taking two pills at a time three times daily.  I try to take them at times when I tend to eat out of emotion or when I am stark raving hungry so I can bump it down to only hungry, or not hungry. I really love using this because I am seriously for the first time learning better eating habits, turning down sweets, and not feeling ravenous or deprived and throwing caution to the wind when I finally eat. I believe it’s important to distinguish hunger from other reasons for eating. I am finally learning how to eat to live rather than living to eat!

Within thirty minutes of taking it I can feel it work. I think twice am I really hungry? Am I bored? Do I need to eat at 11:30 pm or can that wait till morning? Like I said this pill makes me think &  I am no longer eating impulsively.  That is wonderful to me and just what I needed.  I’ve been going to the gym for the last week.  The Hoodia definitely seems to give me more energy and I am feeling all round much better and less stressed.  Food wise I am eating a lot of the right stuff like grilled fish & chicken, yogurt, apples, pears, vegetables & salads. When I do ‘go off the diet’ its only temporary (out to dinner) & I’m right back on it the next day with little or no effort.  In the past I would lose momentum for days & weeks at a time.  I’ve stopped eating between meals completely and don’t miss snacks at all.  After 3 weeks taking the Hoodia I had lost 3 lbs but it did take about 12 days for it to start working for me. I am now down a total of 11 lbs.  At this rate I will be at my goal weight in another month. Many many thanks for a great product that really does work.

On Camu Camu

I have spoken to you several times regarding my health problems and how I’ve had a really bad run of poor health.  Well, I just wanted to give you an update. I started taking Camu camu at the beginning of December . I had pneumonia once and bronchitis 3 times last year. It’s hard to believe how well it’s worked. I began coughing up a lot of mucous. When that was cleared I started to feel better. I have not had any flu or even a cold since although most of the family had flu all over Christmas. It’s truly amazing.

    A. Flaherty,  Dublin 6

I'd read about Camu camu on some american websites and always wanted to try it as I have been having a lot of problems with colds and flu for the last three winters.  I was amazed with the fact that I have not had one cold or flu since starting to take it in September.

    Josie,  Killmainham

I was feeling so low I was giving serious thought to going on an antidepressant. I started taking your Maca about a month ago & then added Camu two weeks later – the results have been really amazing for me.  I have so much more energy now and I don’t feel down any longer.
