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 3 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains 3 active ingredients: ginger root extract, apple cider vinegar powder, and CeleVida (celery). Ginger is traditionally used for nausea and inflammation.

Apple cider vinegar is a fermented product with various folk uses. Celery extract comes from the plant and its seeds.

The capsule also contains inactive ingredients — microcrystalline cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide — which are fillers and binders that help form and stabilize the capsule.

Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: weight management, digestion, wellness.
  • We looked for evidence on: Constipation, Diabetes, Diarrhea, Dyspepsia, Gastroparesis, Hypertension — and 4 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Apple Cider Vinegar is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diabetes (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Apple Cider Vinegar is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Dyspepsia, Hyperlipidemia, Obesity, Impaired glucose tolerance (prediabetes), and more.
  • Also on file: Celery is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diabetes.

Ginger has the strongest evidence: it's possibly effective for pregnancy-related nausea, period pain (dysmenorrhea), and osteoarthritis. However, it's possibly ineffective for muscle soreness from exercise and chemotherapy-induced nausea.

For apple cider vinegar and celery extract, the evidence we hold shows insufficient reliable data to rate their effectiveness for the uses they're marketed for — including acne, athletic performance, cognitive function, dental plaque, depression (apple cider vinegar), and sexual dysfunction, anxiety, headache, depression, diabetes, and indigestion (celery).

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Ginger Apple Cider Vinegar Celery

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 3 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Ginger is generally well tolerated in typical food and supplement amounts for healthy adults and is rated likely or possibly safe in pregnancy. However, doses above 5 grams per day increase side effects and reduce tolerability.

Common mild side effects are abdominal discomfort, burping, diarrhea, heartburn, and a pepper-like sensation in the mouth and throat — encapsulated ginger may cause fewer of these than powder. One person in a trial developed mild heart rhythm changes.

Apple cider vinegar in food amounts is generally well tolerated, but large or long-term doses may be unsafe: chronic high amounts have caused low potassium, high renin levels, and bone loss in one reported case. Topically it can cause chemical burns.

Celery is generally well tolerated when eaten, but medicinal amounts in pregnancy may affect the uterus — food amounts are likely fine. Celery allergies can range from oral itching and burning to serious reactions like anaphylaxis, laryngeal swelling, and skin reactions.

The facts don't provide a safety rating for celery in breastfeeding, so reliable data is limited; talk to your doctor.

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?
  • 3 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Apple Cider Vinegar, Celery, Ginger.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications; heart-rhythm medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,248 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 this product before taking blood thinners (warfarin, phenprocoumon) or antiplatelet drugs — ginger raises bleeding risk. Also double-check diabetes medications (both types), insulin, diuretics, digoxin, levothyroxine, venlafaxine, blood pressure drugs, and cancer drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.

If you've had an allergic reaction to celery, do not use this product.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you take blood thinners, diabetes drugs, heart or blood pressure medications, or thyroid medication, you need to check this product with your pharmacist or doctor before starting — the interactions are real. Ginger may help nausea and joint pain, but the evidence for apple cider vinegar and celery is weak.

If you have a celery allergy, avoid this product entirely.

Ginger root extract14 drug types · 1,007 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Ginger may have antiplatelet effects and may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs. However, research is conflicting.
Laboratory research suggests that ginger inhibits thromboxane synthetase and decreases platelet aggregation. However, this has not been demonstrated unequivocally in humans, with mixed results from clinical trials. Theoretically, excessive amounts of ginger might increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking ginger with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Animal and human research suggests that ginger might increase insulin levels and/or decrease blood glucose levels.

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

Ginger might increase or decrease the levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research and some case reports suggest that ginger inhibits CYP3A4 activity. Three case reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) adverse drug reaction database describe increased toxicity in patients taking ginger and cancer medications that are CYP3A4 substrates (imatinib, dabrafenib, and crizotinib). However, the causality of this interaction is unclear due to the presence of multiple interacting drugs and routes of administration.
Conversely, other in vitro research suggests that ginger induces CYP3A4 activity, leading to reduced levels of CYP3A4 substrates. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Losartan (Cozaar)

Theoretically, ginger might increase levels of losartan and the risk of hypotension.
In animal research, ginger increased the levels and hypotensive effects of a single dose of losartan. It is not clear if ginger alters the concentration or effects of losartan when taken continuously. Additionally, this interaction has not been shown in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Nifedipine (Procardia)

Ginger may have antiplatelet effects and increase the risk of bleeding if used with nifedipine.
Clinical research shows that combined treatment with ginger 1 gram plus nifedipine 10 mg significantly inhibits platelet aggregation when compared to nifedipine or ginger alone.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Ginger might increase the absorption and blood levels of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) substrates.
In vitro research and case reports suggest that ginger inhibits drug efflux by P-gp, potentially increasing absorption and serum levels of P-gp substrates. Two case reports from the World Health Organization (WHO) adverse drug reaction database describe increased toxicity in patients taking ginger and cancer medications that are P-gp substrates (trametinib, crizotinib). However, the causality of this interaction is unclear due to the presence of multiple interacting drugs and routes of administration.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenprocoumon (Marcoumar, Others)

Ginger might increase the risk of bleeding with phenprocoumon.
Phenprocoumon, a warfarin-related anticoagulant, might increase the international normalized ratio (INR) when taken with ginger. There is one case report of a 76-year-old woman with a stable INR on phenprocoumon that increased to greater than 10 when she began consuming dried ginger and ginger tea.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Ginger might increase the risk of bleeding with warfarin.
Laboratory research suggests that ginger might inhibit thromboxane synthetase and decrease platelet aggregation. In one case report, ginger increased the INR when taken with phenprocoumon, which has similar pharmacological effects as warfarin. In another case report, ginger increased the INR when taken with a combination of warfarin, hydrochlorothiazide, and acetaminophen. A longitudinal analysis suggests that taking ginger increases the risk of bleeding in patients taking warfarin for at least 4 months. However, research in healthy people suggests that ginger has no effect on INR, or the pharmacokinetics or pharmacodynamics of warfarin. Until more is known, monitor INRs closely in patients taking large amounts of ginger.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Calcium Channel Blockers

Theoretically, taking ginger with calcium channel blockers might increase the risk of hypotension.
Some animal and in vitro research suggests that ginger has hypotensive and calcium channel-blocking effects. Another animal study shows that concomitant administration of ginger and the calcium channel blocker amlodipine leads to greater reductions in blood pressure when compared with amlodipine alone.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune)

Theoretically, when taken prior to cyclosporine, ginger might decrease cyclosporine levels.
In an animal model, ginger juice taken 2 hours prior to cyclosporine administration reduced the maximum concentration and area under the curve of cyclosporine by 51% and 40%, respectively. This effect was not observed when ginger juice and cyclosporine were administered at the same time.

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

Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP1A2 activity. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2B6 (Cyp2B6) Substrates

Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP2B6 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP2B6 activity. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, ginger might increase the levels of CYP2C9 substrates.
In vitro research shows that ginger inhibits CYP2C9 activity. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Metronidazole (Flagyl)

Theoretically, ginger might increase levels of metronidazole.
In an animal model, ginger increased the absorption and plasma half-life of metronidazole. In addition, the elimination rate and clearance of metronidazole was significantly reduced.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Ginger root extract full monograph & interactions

CeleVida8 drug types · 651 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, celery root might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
Celery root contains the constituents falcarinol and falcarindiol. Laboratory research suggests that these constituents can inhibit platelet aggregation. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, celery seed extract might have additive effects with antihypertensive drugs.
Clinical research suggests that taking celery seed extract may reduce daytime systolic blood pressure by about 12 mmHg compared to less than 1 mmHg with placebo.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, celery might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro and animal research suggests that constituents of celery can inhibit CYP1A2. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Levothyroxine (Synthroid, Others)

Theoretically, celery seed might decrease the effects of levothyroxine.
Several cases of hypothyroidism with low T4 levels have been reported in people who were previously stabilized on levothyroxine and then started taking celery seed tablets. They presented with symptoms such as lethargy, bloating, and dry skin, and recovered when celery seed was stopped. However, celery stem and leaf has been associated with case reports of hyperthyroidism in patients with no pre-existing thyroid disorders.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, celery might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium due to potential diuretic effects.
Celery is thought to have diuretic properties. However, this effect has not been confirmed in humans.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Venlafaxine (Effexor)

Theoretically, celery root extract might increase blood levels of venlafaxine.
There is one case report of a patient who experienced medication-induced bipolar disorder after beginning to take celery root extract 1000 mg daily along with venlafaxine 75 mg and St. John's wort 600 mg daily. Symptoms included confusion, speech abnormalities, manic affect, and visual hallucinations. The plasma level of venlafaxine was 476.8 ng/mL (normal range 195-400 ng/mL). It is theorized that celery root increased venlafaxine levels by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2D6.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Acetaminophen (Tylenol, Others)

Theoretically, celery juice might increase the effects and side effects of acetaminophen.
Animal research suggests that concomitant use of celery juice plus acetaminophen prolongs the effects of acetaminophen. This effect has been attributed to a decrease in hepatic cytochrome P450 activity. However, other animal research shows that pretreatment with celery root extract protects against acetaminophen-induced acute liver failure. These effects have not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Photosensitizing Drugs

Theoretically, celery might increase the risk of photosensitivity reactions when taken with photosensitizing drugs.
Laboratory research shows that celery contains photosensitizing agents such as phenols and psoralens.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
CeleVida full monograph & interactions

Apple Cider Vinegar, Powder4 drug types · 162 drugs

Digoxin (Lanoxin)

Theoretically, concomitant use of apple cider vinegar with digoxin might increase the risk of cardiac toxicity.
A case of hypokalemia related to chronic use of apple cider vinegar has been reported. Theoretically, overuse of apple cider vinegar could decrease potassium levels, increasing the risk of toxicity with digoxin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of apple cider vinegar with diuretic drugs might increase the risk of hypokalemia.
A case of hypokalemia related to chronic use of apple cider vinegar has been reported. There is some concern that people taking apple cider vinegar along with potassium depleting diuretics might have an increased risk for hypokalemia.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Insulin

Theoretically, concomitant use of apple cider vinegar with insulin might increase the risk of hypokalemia.
A case of hypokalemia related to chronic use of apple cider vinegar has been reported. Theoretically, overuse of apple cider vinegar concomitantly with insulin might increase the risk of hypokalemia.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking apple cider vinegar with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Apple cider vinegar might reduce fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels and decrease gastric emptying in people with diabetes. However, not all research agrees. Theoretically, it might have additive effects on glucose levels when used with antidiabetes drugs.

Apple Cider Vinegar by INNOSUPPS: Common Questions

Does Apple Cider Vinegar by INNOSUPPS interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Apple Cider Vinegar has a known interaction with 1,247 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Apple Cider Vinegar contains 3 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.
Can I use this if I'm pregnant?
Ginger is rated possibly to likely safe in pregnancy and is often used for morning sickness — but check with your doctor first and keep amounts moderate. Apple cider vinegar in food amounts is likely fine, but avoid medicinal doses. Celery seed in medicinal amounts may affect the uterus, so avoid concentrated supplements — food amounts are probably okay. For personalized advice, talk to your OB or pharmacist.
What side effects might I get from ginger in this product?
Most common are mild stomach upset, burping, diarrhea, heartburn, and a peppery sensation in your mouth and throat. These happen more often at doses above 5 grams per day. Encapsulated ginger (like this product) usually causes fewer of these than powder does. One person in a trial had mild heart rhythm changes, though this is rare.
Does this product actually work for what it claims?
Ginger has decent evidence for pregnancy nausea, period pain, and joint pain. For apple cider vinegar and celery, the evidence we hold is too weak to say whether they work for the conditions they're marketed for — anxiety, cognitive function, diabetes, or other uses. If you're buying it for ginger's benefits, you're on firmer ground.
Is celery in this safe if I'm allergic to celery?
No. Celery allergies can be serious — symptoms range from itching and burning in the mouth to anaphylaxis, throat swelling, and skin reactions. If you have any celery allergy, do not take this product.
Can long-term use of apple cider vinegar in this product cause problems?
In food amounts, it's generally fine short-term. But long-term high doses can lower potassium, raise renin levels, and weaken bone — one person who took 250 mL daily for 6 years developed all three. This product is in capsule form, so the dose is likely much smaller, but if you plan to use it long-term, ask your pharmacist or doctor about monitoring.
What's in the capsule besides the active ingredients?
Microcrystalline cellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide — these are common inactive binders and fillers that help hold the capsule together. They're not active ingredients.
