HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Moringa Capsules 1500 mg by Organic Aura

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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: organic moringa leaf powder at 1500 mg per capsule. Moringa is a plant traditionally used in several cultures, and the leaf is the part used here.

The capsule itself is made from vegetable cellulose, an inactive ingredient.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not assessable

This is a single-ingredient Moringa product and its label doesn't state a use — see Moringa's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence supporting moringa leaf for any health purpose remains insufficient in our data. Claims exist for iron deficiency anemia, asthma, athletic performance, diabetes, HIV/AIDS, and high cholesterol, but reliable human research is lacking for all of them.

If you're considering this product for a specific health goal, talk with your doctor about whether there's stronger evidence for other options.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Moringa

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Moringa leaf powder is generally well tolerated as a food, though high-quality safety studies are limited. The most common side effect is transient diarrhea — in one trial, about a quarter of people taking 8 grams daily experienced it.

Rare allergic reactions, including severe ones, have been reported. Stevens-Johnson syndrome (a serious skin and mouth reaction) has been linked to moringa leaf consumption in rare cases.

Avoid medicinal amounts of moringa root and bark, as they may stimulate the uterus and safety data are lacking. Moringa has traditionally been used to support breast milk, but safety hasn't been well studied for that use — talk with your doctor or lactation consultant before taking it if you're breastfeeding.

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Moringa.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 870 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take any CYP3A4 substrates (a very large group — your pharmacist can identify if you do), levothyroxine for thyroid, P-glycoprotein substrates, antidiabetes medications, nevirapine for HIV, or CYP1A2 substrates. The CYP3A4 interaction is particularly important because lab evidence conflicts on whether moringa raises or lowers those drug levels.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Moringa leaf powder is promoted for several health conditions, but we don't have strong evidence it works for any of them. More importantly, it interacts with a large number of medications across several categories, so if you take any prescription drugs — especially for thyroid, HIV, diabetes, or any drug metabolized by CYP3A4 — check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product.

Moringa leaf itself is generally well tolerated, though diarrhea and rare allergic reactions have been reported.

organic Moringa leaf powder6 drug types · 869 drugs

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, moringa might increase or decrease levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
Some in vitro research suggests that moringa inhibits cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). However, other in vitro research suggests that moringa extract induces CYP3A4 enzymes. A pharmacokinetic study in patients with HIV shows no change in the pharmacokinetics of nevirapine, which is partially metabolized by CYP3A4, when administered concomitantly with moringa leaf powder 1.85 grams daily for 14 days.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Levothyroxine (Synthroid, Others)

Theoretically, moringa leaf can antagonize the effects of levothyroxine.
Animal research suggests that moringa aqueous leaf extract might reduce serum triiodothyronine (T3) concentrations by inhibiting the peripheral conversion of thyroxine (T4) to T3.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, moringa leaf extract might increase the levels and clinical effects of P-glycoprotein substrates.
In vitro research shows that moringa leaf extract inhibits renal P-glycoprotein transport activity. So far, this reaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, moringa might have additive effects when used with antidiabetes drugs; however, research is conflicting.
Animal research shows that moringa can lower blood glucose levels. However, research in humans has not shown consistent blood glucose lowering effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, moringa might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that moringa extract induces CYP1A2 enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Nevirapine (Viramune)

Moringa leaf is unlikely to have a clinically significant interaction with nevirapine.
Nevirapine is partially metabolized by cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). In vitro evidence suggests that moringa inhibits CYP3A4. However, a pharmacokinetic study in patients with HIV shows no change in nevirapine pharmacokinetics when administered concomitantly with moringa leaf powder 1.85 grams daily for 14 days.

Moringa Capsules 1500 mg by Organic Aura: Common Questions

Does Moringa Capsules 1500 mg by Organic Aura interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Moringa Capsules 1500 mg has a known interaction with 869 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Moringa Capsules 1500 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The data suggest moringa leaf is possibly safe in pregnancy and possibly safe while breastfeeding, but the evidence is limited. Avoid medicinal amounts of moringa root or bark in pregnancy — they may stimulate the uterus. Since moringa has been traditionally used to support milk production but safety hasn't been well studied for that use, talk with your doctor or a lactation consultant if you're pregnant or breastfeeding and want to take this product.
What are the side effects?
Most people tolerate moringa leaf well. The most common side effect is temporary diarrhea — about one in four people taking 8 grams daily in one trial experienced it. Allergic reactions, including severe ones, are rare but have been reported. A very rare serious skin and mouth reaction (Stevens-Johnson syndrome) has been linked to moringa leaves in case reports.
Does this actually work for diabetes or asthma or any of the conditions advertised?
The evidence isn't established in our data. Moringa is claimed to help with diabetes, asthma, athletic performance, anemia, HIV/AIDS, and high cholesterol, but reliable human studies backing these claims are lacking. Talk with your doctor about treatments with stronger evidence if you're dealing with any of these conditions.
Why do I need to check so many medications?
Moringa may affect how your body processes medications through several enzyme systems — mainly CYP3A4, which handles hundreds of common drugs. Because lab research on moringa gives conflicting results, we can't predict whether it'll raise or lower your drug levels without knowing your specific medications. That's why your pharmacist needs to check each one.
Is this safe to take with levothyroxine?
There's a documented moderate interaction risk. Animal research suggests moringa might reduce how well levothyroxine works by interfering with how your body converts thyroid hormone. Talk with your doctor before combining them — you may need a dose adjustment or to space them apart.
What is moringa, exactly?
Moringa is a plant traditionally used in several cultures. This product uses the leaf powder, which contains the active compounds. The leaf itself is what's in your capsule — the rest of the capsule is vegetable cellulose, a filler.
