HelloPharmacist Scorecard of 100% Aronia Berry by CurEase

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 11, 2026

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 1 active ingredient.

This powder is 100% aronia berry fruit — nothing else. Aronia, also called chokeberry, is a small dark berry used in juices and supplements for its high antioxidant content.

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 Chokeberry product and its label doesn't state a use — see Chokeberry'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 aronia berry is limited. For cardiovascular disease, the research suggests it's probably not effective.

For age-related cognitive decline, macular degeneration, athletic performance, and cancer, we don't have enough reliable evidence to say whether it works or not.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Chokeberry

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 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.

Aronia berry seems to be well tolerated as a food. But we don't have good safety data on concentrated supplements like this powder.

The biggest concern from clinical trials is gastrointestinal side effects — in one small study, about 14% of people drinking aronia juice reported constipation, diarrhea, or digestive issues; in another, about 53% reported diarrhea, nausea, stomach cramps, loss of appetite, vomiting, or stomachache. We have no pregnancy or breastfeeding safety data on file for this ingredient, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you if you're pregnant or nursing.

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 — Chokeberry.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 812 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.

Before you start, double-check trabectedin or any cancer chemotherapy drugs you may be taking. Also check any blood thinners or antiplatelet medications, diabetes drugs, and ask your pharmacist to run a full CYP3A4 substrate check — this single ingredient may affect hundreds of common medications metabolized that way.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you're taking trabectedin, blood thinners, diabetes medications, or any drug that goes through CYP3A4, you need to check with your pharmacist before adding this powder. Even if you're not on those medications, the evidence that aronia actually works for most claimed benefits is weak or absent.

It's generally well tolerated by mouth, but concentrated supplements haven't been well studied.

Aronia Berry fruit powder4 drug types · 811 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, chokeberry might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Clinical and in vitro research suggests that chokeberry extract can temporarily inhibit platelet aggregation and decrease clot formation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, chokeberry might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Some clinical research shows that chokeberry decreases levels of blood glucose in some patients with diabetes. However, other clinical research suggests that chokeberry has no significant effect on blood glucose levels.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, chokeberry might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research shows that chokeberry inhibits CYP3A4. In humans, there is one case report of a drug interaction with trabectedin, a CYP3A4 substrate, which is hypothesized to have been caused by chokeberry inhibition of CYP3A4.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Trabectedin (Yondelis)

Theoretically, chokeberry might increase the effects and adverse effects of trabectedin.
In one case report, a patient drinking chokeberry juice developed rhabdomyolysis induced by trabectedin, a cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) substrate. It is possible that inhibition of CYP3A4 by chokeberry juice might have inhibited the metabolism of trabectedin and increased trabectedin levels in this patient.

100% Aronia Berry by CurEase: Common Questions

Does 100% Aronia Berry by CurEase interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, 100% Aronia Berry has a known interaction with 811 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
100% Aronia Berry contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Will this powder cause side effects?
Aronia berry is generally well tolerated, but gastrointestinal side effects are the main concern. In clinical studies of aronia juice, some people reported constipation, diarrhea, nausea, stomach cramps, or vomiting — anywhere from about 14% to 53% depending on the dose and study. Start low to see how your stomach handles it.
Does aronia berry actually work?
For heart disease, research suggests it probably doesn't help. For cognitive decline, vision problems like macular degeneration, athletic performance, and cancer, we simply don't have enough solid evidence yet to say one way or the other.
Is this safe to take with my diabetes medication?
That's a conversation for your pharmacist. Some research shows aronia may lower blood sugar, but other studies say it doesn't. The risk of your blood sugar dropping too low is theoretical but possible, so your pharmacist needs to know your exact medication and monitor you.
What is aronia berry?
Aronia, also called chokeberry, is a small dark berry with high antioxidant content. This powder is the fruit dried and ground into powder form — no added ingredients.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
We don't have safety data on this ingredient during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.
