HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Chaga Powder by Om Mushroom Superfood

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 11, 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 0 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • “Certified Organic Mushroom Powder Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (2 Gram(s)) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product has one active ingredient: chaga powder, a type of fungal growth found on birch trees. The powder also contains oats as an inactive ingredient to help with texture and handling.

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

We hold no graded evidence for this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: supports healthy aging and immune health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Immune function, Aging, Antioxidant support, Inflammation.
  • Our graded evidence for these ingredients doesn't cover that particular purpose.

The evidence for chaga's effectiveness isn't established in our data. We hold insufficient reliable evidence to rate it for cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or COVID-19.

That doesn't mean it doesn't work — it means the studies aren't there yet to say.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Chaga

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 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Chaga is generally used in foods and teas, but human safety data are limited. There have been rare reports of kidney problems linked to high chaga intake, since chaga contains high amounts of oxalate (a compound that can stress the kidneys).

Pregnancy and breastfeeding: there isn't enough safety data to know either way. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor before using chaga if you're pregnant or nursing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Chaga

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?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Chaga.
  • 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: 327 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 before taking this if you're on blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (like warfarin or aspirin), immunosuppressants (like those used after transplant), or diabetes medications. Chaga may affect how all three work.

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.

Chaga might work for cardiovascular and metabolic health, but the evidence isn't solid yet. If you take blood thinners, diabetes drugs, or immunosuppressants, check with us first — these interactions are theoretically concerning.

Otherwise, talk to your pharmacist before you start, especially if you have kidney issues or are pregnant.
