Ingredient Transparency · database check

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.

Agaricus Mushroom Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection contains one active ingredient: agaricus mushroom powder. This is a whole mushroom powder, meaning you're getting the fungus in its dried, powdered form.

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 Agaricus Mushroom product and its label doesn't state a use — see Agaricus Mushroom'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 agaricus mushroom isn't established yet in the data we hold. The supplement has been studied for allergic rhinitis (hay fever), osteoporosis, cancer, cardiovascular disease, chemotherapy side effects, and Crohn disease, but in each case the reliable evidence isn't there to say whether it works or not.

That doesn't mean it doesn't — it just means more research is needed.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Agaricus Mushroom

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.

Agaricus mushroom is generally well tolerated when taken by mouth as a food, but long-term safety as a supplement hasn't been fully established. The most common side effects reported are abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, and nausea.

Rare but serious adverse effects have been reported, including allergic reactions, liver damage (hepatotoxicity), and a rare lung condition called interstitial lung disease (ILD). Several cases of severe liver damage have been documented in women with cancer receiving chemotherapy who also took agaricus mushroom — in two cases the condition was fatal.

Allergic reactions including rashes and swelling have also been reported in a small number of users. There isn't enough safety data to recommend this supplement during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using it if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or nursing.

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 — Agaricus Mushroom.
  • 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 (oral medications for type 2 diabetes), check with your pharmacist before adding this supplement — it may increase your risk of low blood sugar and your dose may need adjusting.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Agaricus mushroom is generally tolerated when taken by mouth, but the evidence for what it actually does hasn't been established yet. The main concern is a documented interaction with diabetes medications that may lower your blood sugar further.

If you take diabetes drugs or have any history of liver problems or allergies, talk with your pharmacist before starting.

Agaricus Mushroom Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection: Common Questions

Does Agaricus Mushroom Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Agaricus Mushroom Powder 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?
Agaricus Mushroom Powder 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 have type 2 diabetes?
Not without talking to your pharmacist or doctor first. Agaricus mushroom has been shown in a small clinical study to increase the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) in people already on diabetes medications. Your doctor may need to monitor your blood sugar more closely or adjust your diabetes drug dose if you add this supplement.
What are the most common side effects?
The most common side effects are abdominal discomfort, diarrhea, and nausea. These tend to be mild, but if they're bothering you, stop taking it and talk with your pharmacist.
Is it safe to take during pregnancy?
There isn't enough safety data to know either way. The evidence advises against using supplement doses during pregnancy. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice if you're pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
There isn't enough safety data to know either way, and the evidence advises against using supplement doses while breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice if you're nursing.
What does agaricus mushroom actually do?
The reliable evidence hasn't been established yet for any of the conditions it's been studied for — including hay fever, osteoporosis, cancer, heart disease, and Crohn disease. That means we don't have solid proof it works for those purposes, though more research is ongoing.
