HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Cilantro Leaf Chocolate Flavor by TerraVita

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: Cilantro Leaf Glycerite Liquid Extract, a concentrated herbal preparation derived from coriander. The extract is suspended in glycerin and flavored with chocolate to mask the taste.

Beyond those, there are no other active ingredients in this formula.

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 Coriander product and its label doesn't state a use — see Coriander'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 we hold does not establish that coriander is effective for any of the conditions it's sometimes used for—anorexia, anxiety, constipation, diabetes, diarrhea, or indigestion. All of those uses are rated as having insufficient reliable evidence.

That doesn't mean coriander doesn't work; it means the data we have isn't strong enough to confirm that it does.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Coriander

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.

Coriander in normal food amounts is generally well tolerated and considered safe for most people. Orally, it seems to cause few side effects—though a rare but serious allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) has been reported, and contact dermatitis can occur with topical use in sensitive individuals.

Because this product is a medicinal concentrate rather than a food amount, the safety data are more limited; use caution and avoid essential oil or high-dose preparations without talking to your doctor or pharmacist first.

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 — Coriander.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 717 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 doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you use blood sugar medication (antidiabetes drugs), blood pressure medication (antihypertensive drugs), sleeping pills or sedatives (CNS depressants), or photosensitizing drugs like certain antibiotics. All carry Moderate interactions with this extract.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This cilantro extract may be worth considering if you're interested in herbal support, but the evidence for its effectiveness isn't established in our data. If you take blood sugar medication, blood pressure medication, sleeping pills, or light-sensitive antibiotics, you'll need to check your specific drugs with your pharmacist or doctor before you start.

Coriander itself is generally well tolerated at food levels, but as a concentrated medicinal dose, it deserves a quick conversation with your healthcare provider.

Cilantro Leaf Chocolate Flavor by TerraVita: Common Questions

Does Cilantro Leaf Chocolate Flavor by TerraVita interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Cilantro Leaf Chocolate Flavor has a known interaction with 717 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Cilantro Leaf Chocolate Flavor 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.
What is cilantro leaf glycerite extract?
It's a concentrated herbal liquid made from cilantro leaves (also called coriander). The extract is dissolved in glycerin, a natural preservative and sweetener, and flavored with chocolate. It's more potent than fresh cilantro you'd add to food.
Will this help with my digestion or anxiety?
The data we have doesn't establish that coriander works for indigestion, anxiety, or other common uses. There isn't enough reliable evidence in our records to say whether it does or doesn't. Talking to your doctor about what might help is your best bet.
Can I take this if I'm diabetic?
Coriander may lower blood sugar, so combining it with diabetes medication could push your glucose too low. You'll need to talk with your doctor first about whether it's safe for you and whether your medication dose needs adjusting.
Is this safe for daily use?
Coriander in food amounts is safe for most people. This is a medicinal concentrate, though, so the long-term safety data are thin. If you want to use it regularly, check with your pharmacist or doctor first to make sure it's right for your situation.
Could this cause an allergic reaction?
Serious allergic reactions to coriander are rare, but they have been reported—including a case of anaphylaxis in someone who ate food containing it. If you've ever had an allergic reaction to cilantro, coriander, or related spices, avoid this product and mention it to your healthcare provider.
