HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Acai Berry Extract 500 mg by DC

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

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 softgel contains one active ingredient: acai berry extract at 500 mg per dose. Acai is a fruit from South America that's been used in traditional supplements.

The product also contains several inactive ingredients — soybean oil, gelatin, vegetable glycerin, yellow beeswax, natural caramel color, silica, and soy lecithin — which serve as the capsule shell and supporting materials.

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 Acai product and its label doesn't state a use — see Acai'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 acai berry extract is currently insufficient for the claims most often made about it. Our data does not establish reliable effectiveness for aging skin, athletic performance, erectile dysfunction, or weight management.

If you're considering this supplement for one of those purposes, the science behind it hasn't been settled yet.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Acai

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.

Acai is generally well tolerated when you eat it as a food, but concentrated supplements at high doses haven't been well studied, so there's some uncertainty about longer-term safety. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, safety data on acai supplements specifically is limited — there isn't enough information to say it's clearly safe or unsafe.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product during pregnancy or while 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 — Acai.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 86 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.

If you take antidiabetes drugs (insulin, metformin, sulfonylureas, or similar medications for blood sugar control), check your specific medications with the tool on this page before adding acai. The supplement may raise or lower your blood glucose unpredictably.

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.

Acai berry extract is generally well tolerated, but the evidence for what it actually does is weak. The main concern is if you take diabetes medications — you'll need to check with your pharmacist first.

If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking antidiabetes drugs, run this one by your pharmacist before you start.

Acai Berry Extract 500 mg by DC: Common Questions

Does Acai Berry Extract 500 mg by DC interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Acai Berry Extract 500 mg has a known interaction with 86 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Acai Berry Extract 500 mg 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Safety data on acai supplements during pregnancy and breastfeeding is limited — there isn't enough information to know either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you in these situations.
Does acai berry extract actually work for weight loss or cholesterol?
The evidence isn't established in our data. Acai is often marketed for weight management and cholesterol, but we don't have reliable evidence that it works for these purposes.
Is this supplement safe to take long-term?
Acai is generally well tolerated as a food, but concentrated supplements at high doses haven't been well studied, so long-term safety isn't clear. If you plan to use it regularly, check in with your pharmacist.
What's the difference between eating acai and taking a supplement?
When you eat acai as a food, safety data is reassuring. This product is a concentrated extract — higher dose and more potent — and that form hasn't been as thoroughly studied, especially long-term.
Does acai contain soy? I have an allergy.
Yes — this softgel contains soy lecithin and soybean oil as inactive ingredients. If you have a soy allergy, this product isn't for you.
