A member asked:
Can i take maca root if i have low thyroid?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maca Root: There is no enough information about how Maca root works, therefore I don't know if there is enough evidence regarding its interaction with Levothyroxine. But I certainly wouldn't take it at the same time with Levothyroxine as it might decrease the efficacy of Thyroid med, Take them 4 hours apart.
