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: Asparagus racemosus powder, the root of an herb used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. The powder comes with no other listed 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 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 Asparagus racemosus is not yet established in the data we hold. Claims include support for tuberculosis, lactation, muscle strength, sexual desire, and bronchitis, but we lack reliable evidence to rate any of these uses.

If you're considering it for a specific health goal, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether the research supports it.

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.

Asparagus racemosus is generally well tolerated based on its use in traditional medicine, though high-quality safety studies are limited. Safety during pregnancy is not well established, so it is best avoided unless your doctor advises otherwise.

It is traditionally used to support milk supply, but reliable safety data are lacking — if you're breastfeeding and interested in shatavari, use it only under professional guidance from your doctor or lactation specialist.

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 appeal to those seeking traditional herbal support, but anyone taking diuretics or lithium should check with their doctor or pharmacist before starting. The safety data in pregnancy and breastfeeding are limited, so personalized guidance matters.

Talk it over with your own healthcare provider to see if it's right for you.
