HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Shatavari Extract Paste by Materia Organica

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 is a single-ingredient extract: shatavari root (Asparagus racemosus). It's a traditional Ayurvedic herb that's been used historically for several purposes, though the evidence supporting most of those uses in humans isn't well established yet.

There are no other active ingredients and no inactive fillers listed.

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 Asparagus Racemosus product and its label doesn't state a use — see Asparagus Racemosus'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 shatavari's effectiveness is incomplete. We hold insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for tuberculosis, lactation support, muscle strength, sexual desire, or bronchitis.

In other words, traditional use exists, but human studies backing these claims are either lacking or of lower quality. If you're considering shatavari for one of these purposes, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about whether the traditional evidence alone is enough for your situation.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Asparagus Racemosus

How safe is it?

Some data gaps
Safety Information · database check
Some gaps

Safety data exists for these ingredients, but with some important gaps.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 0 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.

Shatavari root is generally well tolerated in traditional use, but high-quality safety data are limited — so we can't say with certainty how it affects everyone. During pregnancy, safety isn't well established, so it's best avoided unless a doctor advises otherwise.

For breastfeeding, shatavari has a long history of traditional use to support milk supply, but reliable safety data are lacking. If you're nursing and interested in shatavari, use it only under professional guidance from your doctor or pharmacist.

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 — Asparagus Racemosus.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: lithium.
  • For scale: 76 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.

Check with your pharmacist before starting if you take lithium or any diuretic medication (water pills). Shatavari may interfere with how your body handles both.

These are the only medication types we have interaction data for with this ingredient.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and some safety-information gaps remain.

Shatavari may be worth considering if you're drawn to traditional Ayurvedic herbs and have checked your medications first — especially lithium and diuretics. Pregnant people should avoid it unless a doctor says otherwise.

Talk to your pharmacist before starting, particularly if you take any regular medications.
