HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Maca 750 mg by Herbal Secrets
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: maca, a plant root traditionally used in South America. You get 750 mg per capsule.
The remaining ingredients — cellulose, rice flour, silica, and magnesium stearate — are inactive ingredients (binders, fillers, and flow agents) that help hold the capsule together.
Does it work?
Insufficient evidence
The evidence for maca is limited. We hold insufficient reliable evidence to rate whether it works for amenorrhea (missed periods), anemia, antidepressant-related sexual dysfunction, athletic performance, or osteoporosis.
That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means the research isn't settled enough for us to say either way. If you're thinking about using it for a specific condition, talk it over with your doctor about what the science shows and what might work better for you.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Maca is generally well tolerated as a food, but supplement safety hasn't been studied over the long term, so we don't have a lot of data on what happens with regular high-dose use. A small number of people report stomach pain after consuming fresh, uncooked maca.
The safety data advises against using this supplement during pregnancy because we don't have enough reliable information. The same goes for breastfeeding — there isn't enough data to know whether it's safe, so it's best to avoid it or talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're nursing.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for maca with any medications. Still, check your exact medications with the tool on this page before you start, or ask your pharmacist — they know your full medication list and can spot anything we might have missed.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with insufficient evidence for its stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
Maca is often used for sexual function and energy, but the evidence for those uses isn't strong yet. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, skip it — the safety data isn't there.
Before you start, run your medications through the checker on this page and talk it over with your pharmacist, especially if you have stomach sensitivity.
