Black Cohosh, Maca, Ashwagandha — What's Real?

Some help. Some don't. Some don't mix with your meds.

The quick explanation

Black cohosh has modest evidence for hot flashes (short-term). Ashwagandha may help stress and sleep. Maca's evidence is weak. Always check interactions, especially with thyroid meds, SSRIs, and HRT.

Why this matters

Herbs are pharmacology. Treat them with the same respect as prescriptions.
