HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Bee Pollen 500 mg by Source Naturals

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 12, 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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: pure whole nugget bee pollen at 500 mg per tablet. The remaining ingredients—microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, silica, and stearic acid—are inactive fillers and binders that help hold the tablet together.

Does it work?

Not established
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 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: energy and vitality enhancing food.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, energy, stamina, vitality.
  • The closest evidence on file: Bee Pollen is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Athletic performance (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for bee pollen's effectiveness is mixed and limited. It is rated possibly ineffective for athletic performance.

For other uses—allergic rhinitis (hay fever), amenorrhea, benign prostatic hyperplasia, and breast cancer-related hot flashes—there isn't enough reliable evidence to make a call either way. If you're considering bee pollen for any of these reasons, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about whether the current research supports its use for your particular situation.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Black Psyllium Bee Pollen

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Bee pollen is generally well tolerated by most people, but it does carry real risks. It can trigger allergic reactions in some users, sometimes severe—especially if you have a history of pollen allergies, ragweed sensitivity, or allergies to plants in the daisy family (chrysanthemums, marigolds, and others).

Serious allergic reactions can include itching, swelling, shortness of breath, lightheadedness, and in rare cases anaphylaxis. There have also been rare reports of acute hepatitis linked to bee pollen use.

Because there isn't enough safety data, bee pollen is advised against during pregnancy—there's concern it might stimulate the uterus. Safety during breastfeeding is also unknown, so it's best avoided then too.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Black Psyllium Bee Pollen

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Bee Pollen, Black Psyllium.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; heart-rhythm medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 2,026 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 warfarin (Coumadin) or any other blood thinner, check with your pharmacist before using this product—bee pollen may increase your bleeding risk. No other medication interactions are documented in our data for the ingredients we could check, but that doesn't mean none exist; your exact medications should always be verified with the search tool on this page.

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.

Bee pollen might appeal to you if you're looking for a natural supplement, but the evidence for most claims is sparse. If you take warfarin or any blood thinner, this product is not for you without a conversation with your doctor first.

And if you have a history of pollen allergies or allergies to the daisy family, steer clear—your risk for a serious reaction is real. Talk with your pharmacist before you start.

FDA Statement of Identity

Dietary Supplement

Formula

For centuries indigenous people have used bee pollen as an energy enhancing food. Pollen is made by flowers and is transferred from plant to plant as part of the plant reproductive cycle. In addition to collecting nectar to make honey, honeybees collect pollen, as a source of protein. The ancient Egyptians described bee pollen as "life-giving dust" because they believed that the life-giving gods delivered it to the hives.

Suggested/Recommended/Usage/Directions

Suggested Use: 1 tablet daily with a meal, then increase gradually up to 2 tablets three times daily with meals.

Precautions

Warning: Bee products may cause an allergic reaction in some people. To test before consuming, place one tablet on the tongue for several minutes. Discontinue use and consult a health care professional if an allergic reaction occurs.

If you are pregnant, may become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult your health care professional before using this product.

Do not use if either tamper-evident seal is broken or missing.

Keep out of the reach of children.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Bee Pollen 500 mg with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Dietary Fiber7 drug types · 2,025 drugs

Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Theoretically, black psyllium might reduce the effects of carbamazepine and increase the risk for convulsions.
Theoretically, black psyllium might reduce carbamazepine absorption. A preliminary study using blond psyllium reported decreased carbamazepine bioavailability due to binding of the drug to psyllium, as well as reduction of available fluid in the gut for dissolution of the drug. This interaction may also occur with black psyllium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as lithium might reduce lithium absorption.
The fiber in black psyllium might reduce lithium absorption and plasma levels. Some case reports describe a reduction in plasma lithium levels with concomitant administration of blond psyllium. This was reversed when psyllium was stopped. This interaction may also occur with black psyllium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Metformin (Glucophage)

Theoretically, black psyllium might increase the therapeutic and adverse effects of metformin.
Animal research shows that concurrent consumption of blond psyllium with metformin slows and increases the absorption of metformin. This interaction may also occur with black psyllium. To avoid changes in absorption, take psyllium 30-60 minutes after metformin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Olanzapine (Zyprexa)

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as olanzapine might reduce olanzapine absorption.
The fiber in black psyllium might decrease the absorption of olanzapine. A single case report describes a reduction in the effectiveness of olanzapine when it was concomitantly administered with an unspecified type of psyllium 3 grams orally twice daily. This effect was reversed when psyllium was stopped.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Digoxin (Lanoxin)

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as digoxin might reduce digoxin absorption and decrease digoxin levels.
Psyllium might bind digoxin in the gut. However, some clinical evidence suggests that psyllium does not impact digoxin absorption.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Ethinyl Estradiol

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as ethinyl estradiol might alter levels of estradiol.
Concurrent use of blond psyllium with ethinyl estradiol results in a slight increase in the extent of ethinyl estradiol absorption and a slower rate of absorption. This is unlikely to be clinically significant.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Oral Drugs

Theoretically, psyllium might increase, decrease, or have no effect on the absorption of oral drugs.
Psyllium seems to have variable effects on drug absorption. To avoid changes in absorption, take psyllium 30-60 minutes after oral medications. Animal research shows that blond psyllium delays and increases the absorption of metformin and ethinyl estradiol. Case reports and animal research suggest that blond psyllium might reduce absorption of lithium, digoxin, olanzapine, and carbamazepine. Finally, some pharmacokinetic studies show that psyllium does not affect the absorption of levothyroxine or warfarin. Although many of these studies evaluated blond psyllium, the fiber content in black psyllium may have similar effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Dietary Fiber full monograph & interactions

Pure Whole Nugget Bee Pollen1 drug type · 2 drugs

Warfarin (Coumadin)

There is some concern that bee pollen might interact with warfarin and increase the risk of bleeding.
In one case report, a patient on warfarin had a stable international normalized ratio (INR) of 1.9-3.3 for 9 months. The patient's INR was found to be 7.1 after starting bee pollen granules one teaspoon twice daily for approximately one month. The patient's warfarin dose was decreased by approximately 11% in order to return the INR to the therapeutic range while continuing the bee pollen supplement.

Bee Pollen 500 mg by Source Naturals: Common Questions

Does Bee Pollen 500 mg by Source Naturals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Bee Pollen 500 mg has a known interaction with 2,025 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Bee Pollen 500 mg contains 2 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 take bee pollen if I have pollen allergies?
No—if you have a history of seasonal pollen allergies, especially to ragweed or plants in the daisy family like chrysanthemums and marigolds, bee pollen puts you at serious risk. You could have allergic reactions ranging from itching and swelling to shortness of breath and anaphylaxis. Skip this product if that's you.
Is bee pollen safe during pregnancy?
The safety data rates it as possibly unsafe during pregnancy because there's concern it might stimulate the uterus. There isn't enough information to know for sure, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's right for you.
Is bee pollen safe while breastfeeding?
Safety during breastfeeding is unknown, so it's best avoided. If you're thinking about taking it, check with your pharmacist or doctor first.
Does bee pollen help with athletic performance?
The evidence rates bee pollen as possibly ineffective for athletic performance, so there's not strong support for using it for that reason.
What are the possible side effects?
Most people tolerate it well with no issues. Serious side effects are rare but can include allergic reactions (itching, swelling, shortness of breath, and in rare cases anaphylaxis) and acute hepatitis. If you're allergic to pollen or related plants, your risk goes up significantly.
