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: shatavari root powder, a traditional Ayurvedic herb. There are no inactive ingredients 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 we hold on shatavari doesn't establish clear effectiveness for the uses it's traditionally applied to — including supporting lactation, muscle strength, sexual desire, bronchitis, and tuberculosis recovery. All of those have insufficient reliable evidence to rate in our data.

If you're considering this for a specific health goal, talk with your doctor about whether the evidence supports it and whether it's right for you.

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 studies are limited. The safety data for pregnancy are not well established, so the guidance is to avoid it in pregnancy unless your doctor advises otherwise.

If you're breastfeeding, shatavari is traditionally used to support milk supply, but reliable safety data are lacking — use it only under professional guidance from your doctor or midwife.

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 — 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 doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you take diuretic drugs (water pills) or lithium. Both are moderate-severity interactions: shatavari may increase the diuretic effect and fluid loss, and it may slow lithium clearance and raise its blood levels.

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.

Organic Shatavari Powder is a single-herb supplement with a long history in Ayurvedic practice. It's most relevant if you're interested in traditional herbal support and don't take diuretics or lithium.

If you do take either of those medications, or if you're pregnant or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — they can help you decide whether it's appropriate for you.
