- Asparagus (including Shatavari) may have some diuretic effects, so those on diuretic medications may want to consult their healthcare provider before use.
- Due to its traditional use in supporting moisture in the digestive tract, it may cause loose stool in some individuals, while others may find it supports healthy bowel regularity
- Shatavari should not be used by those with celiac disease or other malabsorption issues, as this herb is a mucilage herb that can coat the intestinal lining, potentially affecting the absorption of medications or nutrients. To help prevent this, simply take your other herbs or medications three hours apart from Shatavari.

Testimonials
Your supplements have been wonderful for helping me increase my breastmilk production. Shatavari, in particular, shouldn’t be called the herbal Domperidone because it’s better than Domperidone. I’m on Domperidone too, and have had really horrible side effects. I’ve been slowly weaning off over 4 months (3 weeks to go! Hooray!). When I decrease my dose my milk supply temporarily goes down, unless I religiously take the Shatavari and then it’s fine! I’ve taken just about every milk-increasing product out there, and Herb Lore products have worked the best! A.O.
