HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic 100% Pure Maca Root Powder by Maca Magic

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: maca root powder. Maca is a plant native to Peru, traditionally used as a food and supplement for several purposes including support for sexual function, mood, athletic performance, and bone and blood health.

The powder is the whole-food form of the root, with no added fillers or inactive ingredients.

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 Maca product and its label doesn't state a use — see Maca'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 for maca's effectiveness is not established in the data we hold. For amenorrhea (absence of menstrual periods), anemia, depression-related sexual dysfunction, athletic performance, and osteoporosis, the available evidence is insufficient to rate whether maca works.

You'd want to discuss your specific reason for considering maca with your doctor or pharmacist to weigh what's known.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Maca

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.

Maca is generally well tolerated as a food, but long-term safety as a supplement hasn't been studied in detail. One thing to know: if you consume the maca raw or uncooked, it may cause stomach pain — the powder sold here should be safe on that front if prepared normally.

The safety data advises against maca during pregnancy and while breastfeeding due to insufficient information on risk.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.

No interactions are documented in our data for the maca root powder in this product. That doesn't mean none exist — it means we have no monograph linking it to specific drugs.

General Statements

In 1994, we were fortunate to lead a botanical expedition through the Peruvian Andes to search for maca. It soon became apparent that maca was incredibly elusive and rare. It was estimated at the time, there was only enough maca in Peru to feed a few small villages. To ancient Peruvians, maca root was a precious commodity. For almost two centuries it was commonly traded for gold and exported to feed the kings of Spain. In the late 20th century, maca slipped into obscurity and remained hidden away at 14,000 feet elevation, teetering on the brink of extinction. With the help of the Peruvian government, we visited universities and seed germplasm collections throughout Peru. Using USDA permits, we were the first to export maca plants and seeds to botanical gardens, universities and researchers in North America and around the world.

Third Party Laboratory Testing for Identification, Purity, and Quality.

A sustainable harvest for generations, 14,000 feet elevation in the Peruvian Andes Historical Ethnobotanical Information Used by the Inca and earlier Peruvian cultures for more then 1,500 years. Today, Maca Magic is used up to three times a day by modern Peruvian people from professional athletes to the elderly.

Formula

Since then, researchers have proven what the Inca had been saying for centuries; maca works because it is loaded with natural precursors, amino acids, minerals and newly discovered Macamides and Macaenes, found in no other plant.

Organic 100% Pure Maca Root Powder by Maca Magic: Common Questions

Does Organic 100% Pure Maca Root Powder by Maca Magic interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in Organic 100% Pure Maca Root Powder. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Organic 100% Pure Maca Root Powder 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 maca if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data advises against maca during pregnancy and while breastfeeding because there isn't enough reliable information to know whether it's safe in those situations. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about your individual circumstances before using it.
Does maca actually work for sexual function or mood?
The evidence we hold is insufficient to rate maca for sexual dysfunction or mood — meaning we don't have enough reliable data to say whether it works. You'd want to discuss this with your doctor if you're considering it for a specific health goal.
Will maca upset my stomach?
Fresh, uncooked maca root can cause stomach pain. This product is a powder, which should be prepared normally, so that risk is low — but if you have a sensitive stomach, start small and see how you feel.
Is maca safe to take long term?
Maca is generally well tolerated as a food, but we don't have long-term safety data for it as a concentrated supplement. If you plan to use it regularly, mention it to your doctor or pharmacist.
