HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Cand-E-Cleanse by Herbally Grounded
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.
What’s inside
Low disclosure
Cand-E-Cleanse contains four active ingredients: myrrh gum, chaparral, olive, and pau d'arco — each selected for traditional cleansing purposes. The product also contains cellulose as an inactive ingredient (a capsule filler).
Myrrh and pau d'arco have been used historically in herbal practice, while olive is familiar from food. Chaparral is a desert plant extract.
Does it work?
Not established
The evidence we hold doesn't support effectiveness claims for any condition this product might be marketed for. Myrrh shows insufficient evidence for back pain, cancer, colds, dental issues, and Crohn disease, and it's actually rated likely ineffective for schistosomiasis.
Olive, pau d'arco, and chaparral all show insufficient evidence or no established ratings for their traditional uses. This is an important gap — you should talk with your pharmacist or doctor about whether there's clinical support for what you're hoping this product will do.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
This product carries real safety red flags. Chaparral has been linked to severe liver damage, including cirrhosis and liver failure requiring transplant in multiple reported cases — the safety data advises against it altogether.
Myrrh may cause diarrhea at higher doses and is traditionally thought to stimulate the uterus, so it should be avoided in pregnancy. Pau d'arco may cause anemia and bleeding risk at higher doses, and should be avoided in pregnancy and while breastfeeding.
Olive is generally well tolerated in food amounts, but the safety of concentrated supplements hasn't been well studied. One person in a trial reported skin problems after taking olive leaf extract.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check with your pharmacist before using this if you take any drug that affects the liver, blood thinners like warfarin or newer anticoagulants, antiplatelet drugs like aspirin, or diabetes medications. Chaparral's liver toxicity poses the most serious risk.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This is not a product we'd recommend without serious caution. Chaparral carries unacceptable liver toxicity risk, and the other ingredients present real interaction and safety concerns.
If you're considering it, talk with your pharmacist first — especially if you take any blood thinners, diabetes medication, or drugs that affect the liver. Pregnant or breastfeeding?
Avoid it; the data advises against it.

Cand-E-Cleanse by Herbally Grounded Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Cand-E-Cleanse by Herbally Grounded does interact with several medication types, and some of those interactions are serious.
The most concerning is chaparral, one of its four active ingredients, which can damage the liver when combined with other drugs that affect the liver (hepatotoxic drugs) — a Moderate-severity interaction. Chaparral itself carries significant safety concerns independent of drug interactions.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Myrrh gum in this product may increase the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) when combined with diabetes medications, and it may reduce how well warfarin (a blood thinner) works — both Moderate-severity concerns. Pau d'arco may raise bleeding risk when taken alongside blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs like aspirin, also Moderate severity.
Olive in this product has no interactions documented in our data, though that's not a guarantee none exist. Altogether, these interactions span 535 individual medications.

For each ingredient in Cand-E-Cleanse 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.
Chaparral
Hepatotoxic Drugs
Theoretically, chaparral might have additive adverse effects on the liver when used with hepatotoxic drugs.
Pau d'Arco
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, pau d'arco might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro research shows that pau d'arco reduces platelet aggregation and may interfere with vitamin K. One clinical study shows that taking the lapachol constituent of pau d'arco in doses above 1.5 grams daily increases the risk of bleeding. The effects of whole pau d'arco or pau d'arco extract in humans are unclear.
Myrrh Gum
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, myrrh might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that myrrh has hypoglycemic effects.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, myrrh might decrease the effectiveness of warfarin.
In one case, a patient who was previously stable on warfarin had a significant decline in international normalized ratio (INR) following consumption of an aqueous extract of myrrh.
