HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Anti-Cellulite Complex Chocolate Flavor by TerraVita

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

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 6 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (0.13 mL) without saying how much of each component you get.

This liquid supplement contains six active ingredients, most in the form of glycerite extracts — a way of preparing plant material in glycerin. Boxwood, elderflower, rosemary, uva ursi, white willow, and broom heather are the herbs included.

The product also contains glycerin and chocolate flavor as inactive ingredients.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients for:

  • Memory via Rosemary Possibly Effective
Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Memory — rated "Possibly Effective" (Rosemary) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence we hold doesn't establish that any of these ingredients work for cellulite or the other conditions they're traditionally used for. Rosemary is rated possibly effective for memory, but that's not what this product is marketed to do.

The other ingredients either have insufficient evidence or, in uva ursi's case, are rated possibly ineffective for their traditional use (urinary tract infections). If cellulite reduction is your goal, the science behind these particular herbs in this formulation simply isn't there in our data.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Boxwood Elderflower Rosemary Uva Ursi Heather

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 4 of the 5 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 5 of 5.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 5 of 5.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Boxwood extract is the biggest safety flag here. The raw plant is toxic, and while processed extracts are used in this product, safety data are limited.

Boxwood extract seems well tolerated when taken by mouth, but whole boxwood leaf can cause serious effects including vomiting, diarrhea, severe cramping, and even paralysis. Elderflower is generally well tolerated when properly prepared, but raw parts can be toxic.

Rosemary is safe in normal culinary amounts, but concentrated extracts require caution. Uva ursi is generally well tolerated at low doses short-term, but can be toxic in high doses or with prolonged use; it may cause diarrhea, nausea, stomach upset, or vomiting.

Common side effects from a tea containing elderflower and other herbs included diarrhea and cramping, though it's unclear which ingredient caused them. White willow and broom heather — we have very limited human safety and effectiveness data on broom heather, and we hold no interaction data on white willow.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Boxwood Elderflower Rosemary Uva Ursi Heather

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?
  • 4 of the 5 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Rosemary, Boxwood, Uva Ursi, Elderflower.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,102 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.

Check with your pharmacist if you take anticholinergic drugs or cholinergic drugs (boxwood), blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (rosemary), diabetes medications (rosemary and elderflower), aspirin or other salicylate-containing pain relievers (rosemary), lithium (uva ursi), or medications processed through your liver via CYP2C19, CYP3A4, or glucuronidation pathways (uva ursi). We could not check white willow extract for interactions.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you take any prescription medications, especially for diabetes, blood clotting, psychiatric conditions, or anything your liver processes, check this product against your exact medications before starting. Boxwood extract's limited safety data and potential neurotransmitter effects are worth discussing with your pharmacist.

The evidence for cellulite reduction with these ingredients isn't established in our data. Talk to your pharmacist about whether this product makes sense for you and your medications.

Uva Ursi Glycerite Liquid Extract6 drug types · 803 drugs

Cytochrome P450 2C19 (Cyp2C19) Substrates

Theoretically, uva ursi may decrease the metabolism of CYP2C19 substrates.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit cytochrome CYP2C19. This effect has not been reported in humans.

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

Theoretically, uva ursi may decrease the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit CYP3A4. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Glucuronidated Drugs

Theoretically, uva ursi may increase levels of drugs metabolized by glucuronidation.
In vitro, uva ursi extract appears to strongly inhibit UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGT) 1A1 (UGT1A1). However, uva ursi extract does not appear to inhibit UGT1A1 in animal models. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, uva ursi may increase lithium levels, necessitating a decrease in dose.
Uva ursi may have diuretic properties. Diuretics may increase lithium reabsorption with sodium in the proximal tubule of the kidney. Theoretically, uva ursi might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Urinary Acidifying Agents

Effects of uva ursi in the urinary tract may be reduced by urinary acidifying agents.
Uva ursi seems to work best in alkaline urine. Theoretically, taking uva ursi with medications known to acidify the urine may decrease any effects of uva ursi on the urinary tract.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, uva ursi may alter the levels of drugs transported by P-glycoprotein.
In vitro, uva ursi appears to inhibit the multi-drug transporter protein, P-glycoprotein. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Rosemary Glycerite Liquid Extract6 drug types · 372 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, rosemary may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that rosemary inhibits platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking rosemary with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Animal research shows that rosemary extract can decrease blood glucose levels in diabetic models. However, research in humans is conflicting. Although rosemary powder decreased blood glucose levels in healthy adults, no change in blood glucose levels was seen in adults with type 2 diabetes, most of whom were taking antidiabetes drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Aspirin

Theoretically, rosemary might have additive effects with salicylate-containing drugs such as aspirin.
Rosemary is reported to contain salicylates.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Choline Magnesium Trisalicylate (Trilisate)

Theoretically, rosemary might have additive effects with salicylate-containing drugs such as choline magnesium trisalicylate.
Rosemary is reported to contain salicylate.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Salsalate (Disalcid)

Theoretically, rosemary might have additive effects with salicylate-containing drugs such as salsalate.
Rosemary is reported to contain salicylate.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, rosemary might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that rosemary induces CYP1A2 enzymes. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D

Boxwood Glycerite Liquid Extract2 drug types · 219 drugs

Anticholinergic Drugs

Evidence from in vitro research suggests that boxwood extract can inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity. Theoretically, concurrent use of anticholinergic drugs and boxwood might decrease the effectiveness of boxwood or the anticholinergic agent.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cholinergic Drugs

Evidence from in vitro research suggests that boxwood extract can inhibit acetylcholinesterase activity. Theoretically, concurrent use of boxwood with other cholinergic drugs might have additive effects and increase the risk of cholinergic side effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Elderflower Glycerite Liquid Extract1 drug type · 86 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, elderflower might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
In vitro research suggests that elderflower might lower blood glucose levels. Monitor blood glucose levels closely.

Anti-Cellulite Complex Chocolate Flavor by TerraVita: Common Questions

Does Anti-Cellulite Complex Chocolate Flavor by TerraVita interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Anti-Cellulite Complex Chocolate Flavor has a known interaction with 1,101 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Anti-Cellulite Complex Chocolate Flavor contains 6 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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.
Is it safe to take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
No — boxwood is rated likely unsafe in pregnancy and lactation due to the plant's toxicity and limited safety data. Rosemary is possibly unsafe in pregnancy at medicinal doses. Elderflower and uva ursi should be avoided, and broom heather safety hasn't been studied. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.
What does rosemary do in this formula?
Rosemary is included in the blend, though the product's marketing focus is cellulite. In our data, rosemary is rated possibly effective for memory, but that's not what this product claims to do. Its role here is part of the proprietary blend.
What's a glycerite extract?
It's a way of preparing plant material by soaking herbs in glycerin instead of alcohol or water. Most of the active ingredients in this product come in that form.
Can this cause stomach problems?
Possibly. Uva ursi may cause diarrhea, nausea, stomach upset, or vomiting. A tea made from elderflower and other herbs caused diarrhea and cramping in some people, though it's unclear if elderflower alone was responsible. Start with a small amount to see how you tolerate it.
Why do I need to check my diabetes medication with this?
Both rosemary and elderflower extracts may theoretically lower your blood sugar levels, which could add to the effect of your diabetes medication and raise the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Your pharmacist can tell you whether your specific medication needs monitoring.
Is there any good evidence this works for cellulite?
Not in our data. The evidence we hold doesn't establish that these ingredients work for cellulite. Rosemary is possibly effective for memory, but that's not what this product is marketed for.
