Question:	Is this maca gelatinzed
Answer:	The maca that I have is not gelatinized. It is in a capsule. If I were to open the capsule, powder would fall out. I'm still on my first bottle.
Question:	Is this the 'cooked' version of Maca? I noticed that Now Foods does have a 'Raw Maca' so I presume this is cooked but
Answer:	Since no one really answered your question, it appears that this is RAW maca and not the cooked (gelatinized) version. Since gelatinized maca requires more processing than raw maca, there's always a cost difference as well with the gelatinized version costing more due to the extra work involved. Therefore, any time maca is the gelatinzed version you will see that mentioned usually on the front of the container since that's an actual selling point. Personally, I've not had a problem digesting this raw form of maca. I guess my body produces enough natural enzymes to handle the extra starch in this raw version. I take a minimum of 2 capsules 3 times daily, some times with food, some times alone with water. For people that have problems digestions starches the gelatinzed version might prove to be better since the gelatinization process removes most of the starch, allowing for easier digestion for those sensitive individuals. For me, this now brand raw maca has proven very effective and fantastic bang for the buck.

Question:	In what country are these manufactured
Answer:	Hi Sue A., you're absolutely right, the ingredients label on this bottle does list "natural vanilla flavor" as an ingredient. From the research I've conducted on this particular product (you can 100% verify by reading the older customer reviews from 2013), it appears that before the natural vanilla flavor was added to this supplement at some point within the last 2 years, many people complained that it contained quite a strong unpleasant odor. One customer stated they felt compelled to hold their nose while taking it, another customer compared the capsule's odor to the smell of urine (sorry, I know that's pretty gross), and another customer found the smell to be so offensive, they could not put it in their daily pill box with the rest of their other supplements because the odor actually would spread itself on to the other tablets and capsules! I'm guessing the makers of this supplement didn't want to scare away potential new customers with such an overpoweringly negative scent. So they decided to add an all natural, vegan-friendly flavor to enhance the palatability of the capsules. Natural vanilla flavor means it is made with real vanilla and does not pose any of the hazards that artificial flavoring does, and unless you are allergic to real vanilla, it is not dangerous nor unhealthy for you.Hope that helps a little.

Product description

N-acetyl cysteine (NAC) is a stable form of the non-essential amino acid cysteine. It is a sulfur-containing amino acid that acts as a stabilizer for the formation of protein structures and is also necessary for the formation of glutathione. Molybdenum and selenium are essential trace minerals that facilitate the production of several important enzymes. Take 1 capsule twice daily. Black speckling may occur over time after package is opened, but product is safe to consume. NAC is a sulfur-containing amino acid so an unpleasant smell is possible. Leave dessicant and charcoal packets in bottle after opening to delay oxidation and control odor (if any). Other Ingredients: Hypromellose (cellulose capsule), Stearic Acid (vegetable source) and Citric Acid.

Live Happy. Live Healthy. Live NOW.

Even when healthy foods and natural supplements weren’t mainstream, NOW’s founder Elwood Richard started his own company to meet consumer needs for health foods by offering affordable, high quality natural products. Still family owned 50 years later, NOW has never wavered from this mission.

Quality & Testing

As one of the natural products industry’s premier manufacturers, NOW owns and operates several manufacturing and distribution facilities in the United States and Canada.

Both the Bloomingdale and Sparks facilities also house state-of-the-art testing laboratories, where NOW’s quality technicians use the latest analytical instrumentation to perform approximately 16,000 tests on ingredients and finished products each month.

Our primary manufacturing facility also contains several in-house laboratories, including gas chromatography, analytical, microbiological, and sensory labs. Our in-house laboratories help us to expedite the testing of raw materials, ingredient samples, and finished products, and afford our technicians a level of quality control that is virtually unmatched within the natural products industry.

Family Owned & Operated

As a family-owned business NOW isn’t beholden to shareholders. We have no outside interests to deter us from our long-term goal of providing value in natural products that empower healthier lives.

Since 1968 the Richard family has guided NOW, always keeping us focused on what matters most – providing the highest quality natural products at the best possible price. The family maintains long-standing relations with many of the world’s top ingredient suppliers to keep prices low, and they’re continuously reinvesting in cutting-edge laboratory facilities and the latest analytical instrumentation to ensure that quality is never compromised.

Sustainability

As a natural products manufacturer NOW is keenly aware of our potential impact on the environment, and we’re committed to responsible stewardship of our planet through the reduction of our carbon footprint and other sustainability initiatives.

NOW has recently become a proud partner of Terracycle, a U.S.-based recycling company that takes non-recyclable and hard-to-recycle pre-consumer and post-consumer waste and converts it into finished goods. Currently Terracycle accepts toothpaste tubes and food and supplement pouches from NOW.

Charitable Commitment

NOW has enjoyed many good years, but we’ve also seen plenty of lean years, and it’s these times that help us remain grounded and focused on what really matters – helping others.

At NOW we’re committed to sharing our blessings and good fortune with others. To this end we give generously based on the needs we see around us, as well as specific, ongoing causes. We give to charities in a direct and efficient manner, and we actively seek charities that are 'self-enabling', or those charities that encourage their recipients and teach them the skills they need to take care of themselves going forward.

User questions & answers

Question:	Where is this made
Answer:	The gray side is used for painted surfaces, and acts as a clay bar would (removing contaminants on the painted surface) and the blue side is microfiber - used on plastic & glass surfaces (windows, unpainted bumpers, ect...)
Question:	What shape are the tablets? Round, or oblong? I'm looking for round, since they're easier to swallow
Answer:	Absolutely as long as you use the Nanoshock product with this. Make sure you keep the towel well lubricated with the Nanoshock. Also this is great at removing fall out and bird dropping stains.
Question:	Where are the ingredients sourced from? China? Is it made from duck feathers
Answer:	Yes. The objective for using the autoscrub towel is to remove as much from the base paint as possible. The most damaging component is embedded dirt particles. The towel is just part of a process of cleaning off all that is on the surface of the paint on the car. Once the paint is clean, then it should be protected by a layer of wax. The wax helps keep that paint clean, and lessens the amount of work that is necessary to maintain the paint.
Question:	Does this product smell in the jar
Answer:	This is a new item brought to my attention. The size would make a difference in being more manageable than a 12" x 12" towel. And it cost is less than that of the 12" x 12" towel. Other than that, the information for the Handy Towel leads me to believe it will give the same results as the Nanoskin Autoscrub towel.

User questions & answers

Question:	what country is this sourced from? please do not answer if you do no know
Answer:	I find that is does enhance the gloss of the paint, provided you have a good base to start with. I use it after each wash and it does an amazing job of beading the water off my vehicle and the windows. It is much different than a wax.
Question:	does it contain carrageenan? Thanks
Answer:	Yes. Think of it as a quick detailer or clay luber. It's slick, but not as slick as spray wax might be.
Question:	How big is the capsule
Answer:	Normal Tap Water, product works well.
Question:	Is the astaxanthin from Hawaii? If not, where it is from
Answer:	Hard water is very bad for paint...
