I always thought Maca was for men! It appears in many men's herbal products for libido etc.

If you are having anxiety, I'd really recommend L-theanine.

It has worked well for my son, last summer, and I still take it at night for night spells of anxiety/bad dreams.

300mg works for me. I started at 150mg and raised it after a month or so.

Theanine is supposed to help with nerve damage too. This is according to Dr. Blaylock MD's newsletter. A member at PN brought it to our PN forum's attention.

Theanine works as a partial agonist on GABA receptors, like Benzos. Only it is not sedating, or habit forming.
I found Doctor's Best brand better than Swanson's.

It is not expensive either.
