HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Chlorophyll 100 mg With Natural Mint by L.A. 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

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: chlorophyll, at 100 mg per serving. Chlorophyll is the green pigment in plants.

The formula also includes vegetable glycerin, deionized water, and spearmint essential oil as inactive ingredients to make the liquid.

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 — see Chlorophyll's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: breath and body odor reduction.
  • We looked for evidence on: Halitosis, Colostomy odor, Body odor.
  • The closest evidence on file: Chlorophyll is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Colostomy odor (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Chlorophyll is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Halitosis.

The evidence for chlorophyll isn't established in the data we hold. The facts list several uses — genital herpes, wound healing, shingles (herpes zoster), nonmelanoma skin cancer, and pancreatitis — but all of them are rated as having insufficient reliable evidence.

That means there isn't enough solid research to say whether it works for these purposes.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Chlorophyll

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.

Chlorophyll is generally well tolerated in short-term use, though high-quality safety studies are limited. The main side effect you might notice is photosensitivity — your skin becoming more sensitive to sunlight — especially with oral use.

Rarely, people have developed pseudoporphyria, a blistering condition. Topical chlorophyll cream can cause dermatitis.

The safety data advises against using chlorophyll during pregnancy, and safety during breastfeeding is unknown — talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

Why this rating?

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.

This product is for people interested in chlorophyll supplementation who aren't taking photosensitizing drugs or methotrexate. If you're on either of those, or any other medications, check with your doctor or pharmacist first.

The evidence for what chlorophyll does isn't well established, and pregnancy and breastfeeding require a conversation with your own healthcare provider.

Chlorophyll2 drug types · 337 drugs

Methotrexate (Trexall, Others)

Theoretically, chlorophyll may reduce the clearance of methotrexate.
In one case report, a 54-year-old male developed delayed clearance of intravenous high-dose methotrexate with concomitant use of chlorophyll. When chlorophyll was stopped 2 days prior to methotrexate treatment, methotrexate clearance was unaffected.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Photosensitizing Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of chlorophyll with photosensitizing drugs may have additive effects.
Chlorophyll has been reported to cause photosensitization. In two case reports, pseudoporphyria developed after oral intake of chlorophyll. Theoretically, concomitant use with other photosensitizing drugs may exacerbate this effect.
