I posted this on my program page but thought I could get better responses here.
I started on Maca Root capsules a few days ago and have noticed a constant stomach upset. I'm wondering if Maca just doesn't agree with me, or if perhaps it is my particular brand or just the batch.
I ask this because it really stinks (and I do mean *really*). I can't even open the jar unless I hold my breath or I feel like heaving. The stink is there even though the Maca is in capsule form. The label says that Maca "has an aroma similar to butterscotch". This is no "butterscotch" I've ever smelled before.
So, is the stench normal? I suppose the batch could be bad or perhaps spoiled, but the expiration date on the jar is 9/15.
Can anyone else out there taking Maca tell me about their experiences?
Thanks...
Misty
