HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Chickweed Herb by Earthborn Elements

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

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 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: Stellaria media, commonly known as chickweed. The capsule itself is made from gelatin.

That's it — no fillers or binders beyond what holds the capsule together.

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

This is a single-ingredient Chickweed product and its label doesn't state a use — see Chickweed's own graded uses on its monograph.

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 chickweed isn't established in our data. Studies on whether it helps with diabetes, cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), or weight (obesity) are too limited or unreliable to draw firm conclusions.

If you're thinking about using it for one of those reasons, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what the current evidence actually supports.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Chickweed

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.

Chickweed is generally well tolerated for short-term use, though high-quality safety data are limited. The main caution we have is topical: chickweed extract applied to skin has been reported to cause contact dermatitis in some people.

For pregnancy and breastfeeding: the safety data advise against it during pregnancy, and safety while breastfeeding is unknown. If you're pregnant or nursing, skip this product and talk with your doctor or midwife about what's right for you.

Meds to double-check

No known interactions

No medication interactions are currently documented for the matched ingredients — that isn't a guarantee none exist.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.

No interactions are documented for the ingredient in this product. You're clear on that front — but always mention any new supplement to your pharmacist, especially if you're on blood thinners or heart medications.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.

Chickweed is a single-ingredient supplement with no documented interactions, so it won't interfere with your medications. That's a plus.

The catch is that we don't have solid evidence it actually works for diabetes, cholesterol, or weight, and safety data are thin. If you're considering it for one of those reasons, have that conversation with your pharmacist first.

Chickweed Herb by Earthborn Elements: Common Questions

Does Chickweed Herb by Earthborn Elements interact with any medications?
We do not currently list a known interaction for the mapped ingredients in Chickweed Herb. This does not guarantee none exist, so confirm with your pharmacist.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Chickweed Herb contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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 this if I'm pregnant?
No — the safety data advise against chickweed during pregnancy. If you're pregnant or planning to be, talk with your doctor or midwife before taking any supplement.
Is this safe while breastfeeding?
There isn't enough data to know either way. To be safe, skip it while you're nursing and check with your doctor or lactation consultant.
Does chickweed help you lose weight?
The evidence isn't solid enough to say. Studies looking at chickweed for weight are too limited or unreliable for us to rate it one way or the other.
Can chickweed topical products cause a rash?
Yes — chickweed extract applied to the skin has been reported to cause contact dermatitis in some people. If you use it topically and get a rash, stop and rinse the area well.
Are there any inactive ingredients I should know about?
Just gelatin in the capsule shell. No other fillers or binders.
