HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Build XT Fruit Punch by Jacked Factory

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 16, 2026

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 2 of its 8 active ingredients.
  • “PeakO2” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (1 Gram(s)) without saying how much of each component you get.

Build XT Fruit Punch contains 8 active ingredients. The main actives are four medicinal mushroom extracts — cordyceps militaris, lion's mane mushroom (Hericium erinaceus), reishi mushroom (Ganoderma lucidum), and shiitake (Lentinula edodes) — plus oyster mushroom (Pleurotus eryngii).

It also includes three proprietary blends or ingredients: PeakO2 (a mushroom complex), ElevATP (a plant-based energy compound), and AstraGin (a bioavailability enhancer). The product also contains inactive ingredients like citric acid, pineapple fruit powder, natural and artificial flavoring, and sweeteners.

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

The label doesn't state a purpose we can grade — see each ingredient's own graded uses on its monograph instead.

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 cordyceps as an athletic performance aid is rated possibly ineffective — it hasn't shown reliable benefit for sports or fitness. Lion's mane mushroom, reishi mushroom, and the other actives in this formula lack sufficient reliable evidence to rate their effectiveness for cognitive function, athletic performance, or other common claimed uses.

We hold no effectiveness data for the proprietary blends PeakO2, AstraGin, or ElevATP.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Cordyceps Lion's Mane Mushroom Reishi 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 3 of the 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 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.

Cordyceps and lion's mane mushroom are generally well tolerated in the short term, though long-term safety data is limited. The most common reported side effects are mild gastrointestinal symptoms — cordyceps may cause abdominal discomfort, constipation, or diarrhea; lion's mane may cause gastrointestinal discomfort or nausea.

Reishi mushroom is also generally well tolerated but can cause dizziness, dry mouth, nausea, rash, or stomach upset. One case report linked a cordyceps-containing product to liver inflammation (though the link isn't clear), and respiratory allergy to reishi spores is possible.

The safety data for cordyceps and lion's mane mushroom advises against use during pregnancy and breastfeeding; reishi mushroom carries the same caution. We hold no pregnancy or breastfeeding safety data for the other active ingredients.

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 — Cordyceps, Reishi Mushroom, Lion's Mane Mushroom.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 502 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 doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you use blood thinners (like warfarin or aspirin), drugs that suppress your immune system (like tacrolimus or mycophenolate), blood pressure medications, or diabetes drugs. These interactions are theoretical but moderate in severity.

Altogether, these interactions span 502 individual medications.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Build XT Fruit Punch is a multi-ingredient mushroom formula best suited for people not taking blood thinners, immunosuppressants, blood pressure drugs, or diabetes medications. If you take any of those, or any prescription drug, check your exact medication list with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

The evidence for athletic or cognitive benefit isn't solid, and long-term safety data is sparse. Pregnancy and breastfeeding aren't recommended without medical clearance.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Build XT Fruit Punch 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.

Ganoderma lucidum3 drug types · 375 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, high doses of reishi mushroom might increase the risk of bleeding.
A dose of 1.5 grams daily of reishi mushroom does not seem to decrease platelet aggregation, but a higher dose of 3 grams daily does.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, reishi mushroom might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that reishi mushroom decreases blood sugar. However, in patients with type 2 diabetes, taking reishi mushroom does not reduce fasting glucose levels, and its effects on glycated hemoglobin are inconsistent.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, concurrent use of reishi mushroom with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Reishi mushroom has shown hypotensive activity in animal research. Clinical evidence suggests that reishi mushroom reduces blood pressure in some, but not all, patients with hypertension.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Ganoderma lucidum full monograph & interactions

Hericium erinaceus3 drug types · 327 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, lion's mane mushroom may increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro research suggests that lion's mane mushroom extracts can inhibit platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, lion's mane mushroom may have additive effects when used with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that an aqueous extract of lion's mane mushroom can reduce serum glucose and increase serum insulin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, concurrent use of lion's mane mushroom might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
In animal and in vitro research, lion's mane mushroom polysaccharides stimulate the immune system.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Hericium erinaceus full monograph & interactions

Cordyceps militaris3 drug types · 249 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, cordyceps may increase the risk of bleeding when used with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that cordyceps extract inhibits platelet aggregation and function. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, concurrent use of cordyceps might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
Animal and in vitro research suggests that cordyceps stimulates the immune system. However, limited clinical research suggests that taking cordyceps may lower the necessary therapeutic dose of the immunosuppressant cyclosporine, which suggests that cordyceps may have an immunosuppressive effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Testosterone

Theoretically, concurrent use of cordyceps and testosterone might have additive effects.
Animal research suggests that cordyceps can increase testosterone levels. The clinical significance of this finding is unclear.

Build XT Fruit Punch by Jacked Factory: Common Questions

Does Build XT Fruit Punch by Jacked Factory interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Build XT Fruit Punch has a known interaction with 502 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Build XT Fruit Punch contains 8 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.
Does this product have a lot of fillers?
Build XT contains inactive ingredients like citric acid, pineapple fruit powder, and sweeteners, but these are standard in powdered supplements. The formula is 8 active ingredients — the product isn't primarily fillers.
Can I take this while I'm pregnant?
The cordyceps and lion's mane mushroom in this product don't have enough safety data for pregnancy, so it's best avoided. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what's right for you.
Will this help me with athletic performance?
Cordyceps is rated possibly ineffective for athletic performance. The other ingredients don't have enough evidence to rate their effectiveness for sports or fitness.
What does lion's mane mushroom actually do?
Lion's mane is a medicinal mushroom that's been studied for cognitive function and other uses, but we don't have reliable evidence yet to confirm what it does for people. It's generally well tolerated.
What are the common side effects?
The most common are mild gastrointestinal ones — stomach discomfort, constipation, diarrhea, nausea. Some people also report dizziness or rash. These were uncommon in studies, and symptoms sometimes went away when taken with food.
