HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Cholesterol Health by Terry Naturally

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 12, 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.
  • “Plant Sterols” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (900 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains one active ingredient: pure Nordic flaxseed oil, a plant-based oil rich in alpha-linolenic acid (a type of omega-3 fat). Plant sterols are also listed; we hold the data as a blend, so the individual sterols present aren't specified separately in our monograph.

The capsule itself is made from vegetable material.

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 Flaxseed Oil's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: maintain healthy cholesterol levels.
  • We looked for evidence on: Atherosclerosis, Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Coronary heart disease (CHD), Familial hypercholesterolemia, Hypercholesterolemia, Hyperlipidemia — and 4 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Flaxseed Oil is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Hyperlipidemia (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Flaxseed Oil is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Atherosclerosis, Cardiovascular disease (CVD).

The evidence for flaxseed oil in cholesterol and related conditions is limited. According to the data we hold, flaxseed oil is rated possibly ineffective for high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia), obesity, rheumatoid arthritis, and bipolar disorder.

That means clinical trials haven't shown it works reliably for these uses — it may help some people, but we can't count on it. If you're taking this for cholesterol or another specific condition, talk with your pharmacist or doctor about whether the evidence supports that goal for you.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Plant Sterols Flaxseed Oil

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.

Flaxseed oil is generally well tolerated by most adults when taken by mouth. A small number of people report mild side effects at typical doses — around 5 grams daily — including changes in bowel habits, dry mouth, or mild indigestion.

High doses (30 grams per day or more) are linked to loose stools and diarrhea. Rare severe allergic reactions like anaphylaxis have been reported.

The safety data for flaxseed oil during pregnancy rates it as possibly safe, but there isn't enough reliable safety information during breastfeeding, so you should check with your doctor before use if you're nursing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Plant Sterols Flaxseed Oil

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 — Flaxseed Oil.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 293 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 your exact medications before starting, paying special attention to blood thinners and antiplatelet drugs (warfarin, clopidogrel, aspirin at prescription doses) — these carry a Moderate interaction risk. Also flag any blood pressure medications and ezetimibe (Zetia) with your pharmacist.

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.

Cholesterol Health is a straightforward flaxseed oil supplement, but the evidence that it actually lowers cholesterol is weak. It's worth a conversation with your pharmacist, especially if you take blood thinners, blood pressure medications, or ezetimibe — those combinations need a closer look before you start.

Cholesterol Health by Terry Naturally: Common Questions

Does Cholesterol Health by Terry Naturally interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Cholesterol Health has a known interaction with 293 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Cholesterol Health 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.
Does flaxseed oil actually lower cholesterol?
According to the clinical data we have, flaxseed oil is rated possibly ineffective for high cholesterol. That means the evidence doesn't support that it reliably works — some people may see a benefit, but we can't count on it. If cholesterol is your main reason for taking it, have a talk with your pharmacist about whether there's better evidence for something else.
What are the most common side effects?
At typical doses around 5 grams daily, a small number of people report changes in bowel habits, dry mouth, or mild indigestion. Higher doses — 30 grams per day and above — are more likely to cause loose stools or diarrhea. Severe allergic reactions are rare but possible.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
There isn't enough reliable safety information about flaxseed oil during breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice before using it while nursing.
Is it safe to take with blood pressure medication?
Flaxseed oil may lower blood pressure on its own, so combining it with blood pressure drugs could push your numbers down more than intended. That's a Moderate interaction concern — check with your pharmacist before starting.
What if I take a blood thinner like warfarin?
Flaxseed oil may thin your blood further and increase bleeding risk when combined with blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs. This is a Moderate-severity interaction — you'll want to discuss it with your pharmacist or doctor before taking this product.
What if I'm on ezetimibe (Zetia)?
Flaxseed oil can interfere with how your body absorbs ezetimibe, which may reduce how well the medication works. Check with your pharmacist if you're taking both.
