HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Black Maca 1000 mg by aSquared Nutrition
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: Peruvian Black Maca, Powder, at 1,000 mg per capsule. Maca is a root vegetable from the Andes that's been used traditionally in Peru as a food and supplement.
The capsule itself also contains inactive ingredients — methylcellulose and rice flour — which are fillers and binders.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence for maca is limited. Our data shows insufficient evidence to rate it for amenorrhea (missed periods), anemia of chronic disease, antidepressant-related sexual dysfunction, athletic performance, and osteoporosis.
That means studies so far haven't been robust or consistent enough to say whether it works for these purposes. If you're considering it for a specific health goal, talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist about what the research actually supports.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Maca is generally well tolerated as a food, but long-term safety in supplement amounts hasn't been studied in depth. The main caution from trials is that fresh, uncooked maca may cause stomach pain — this product is a powder, so that risk is lower, but it's worth knowing.
Avoid maca during pregnancy and breastfeeding; there isn't enough safety data in those situations to recommend it.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for maca. However, this does not mean interactions are impossible — we simply have no evidence showing that maca affects how medications work.
Check with your own pharmacist about your specific drugs before starting.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
Black Maca is a traditional Andean root sold as a supplement for various wellness goals, but the evidence for most of those uses is thin. It has no documented drug interactions, which is a plus if you take medications.
That said, pregnancy and breastfeeding are off-limits, and long-term safety data is sparse. If you're thinking about adding it to your routine, run it by your own doctor or pharmacist first.
