HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Clear Protein Fruit Punch by NutraBio Performance

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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Clear Protein Fruit Punch has two active ingredients: whey protein isolate (microfiltered and ultrafiltered to remove most lactose and fat) and phosphorus. The whey provides amino acids for muscle recovery and athletic performance; we hold no interaction data for phosphorus.

The powder also contains inactive ingredients — malic acid, natural and artificial flavors, sucralose, maltodextrin, canola oil, silicon dioxide, beet powder, and annatto powder — which are fillers, sweeteners, and colorants.

Does it work?

Moderate evidence
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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Protein supplement for muscle and recovery.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, Exercise-induced muscle damage, HIV/AIDS-related wasting, Sarcopenia, Muscle strength, Post-workout recovery.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Whey Protein is rated "Possibly Effective" for Athletic performance (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Whey Protein is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for HIV/AIDS-related wasting, Sarcopenia, Exercise-induced muscle damage.

Whey protein isolate is rated possibly effective for athletic performance — the main reason most people use products like this. For other conditions, the evidence is weaker: it's rated possibly ineffective for osteoporosis and COPD, and there isn't enough reliable evidence to rate it for age-related cognitive decline or HIV/AIDS-related wasting.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Whey Protein

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.

Whey protein isolate is generally well tolerated by most healthy adults when you follow the package directions. The most common side effects are dose-related and include acne, bloating, cramps, diarrhea, fatigue, headache, nausea, reflux, reduced appetite, and thirst.

Acne is worth noting — multiple case reports show whey protein can trigger or worsen acne in teenagers and young adults, and clearing often happens after you stop the supplement. Because concentrated whey supplements aren't as well studied as whole whey as a food, check with your doctor before starting, especially if you have any health conditions.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Whey Protein

Meds to double-check

Major interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Whey Protein.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: Parkinson's medications.
  • For scale: 53 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.

Before taking this product, check with your pharmacist if you use levodopa (Major interaction), or quinolone antibiotics, tetracycline antibiotics, or bisphosphonates (all Moderate). Timing can reduce risk for antibiotics and bisphosphonates, but levodopa needs careful review.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you're training and looking to support athletic performance, whey protein isolate is a reasonable choice. But if you take levodopa for Parkinson's, any quinolone or tetracycline antibiotic, or a bisphosphonate for bone health, you'll need to time this supplement carefully or avoid it — talk to your pharmacist first.

Watch for bloating, digestive upset, and any changes in acne over the first few weeks.

Whey Protein Isolate, Microfiltered, Ultrafiltered4 drug types · 53 drugs

Levodopa

Theoretically, whey protein might decrease levodopa absorption.
Small clinical studies show that concomitant ingestion of protein or high doses of leucine or isoleucine (100 mg/kg) and levodopa can exacerbate tremor, rigidity, and the "on-off" syndrome in patients with Parkinson disease.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Bisphosphonates

Theoretically, whey protein might reduce the absorption of bisphosphonates.
Whey protein contains minerals such as calcium that bind bisphosphonates in the gut. Advise patients to take bisphosphonates at least 30 minutes before whey protein, but preferably at a different time of day.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Quinolone Antibiotics

Theoretically, whey protein might decrease quinolone absorption.
Whey protein contains minerals, such as calcium, that can bind to quinolones in the gut. To avoid this interaction, advise patients to take oral quinolones at least 2 hours before or 4-6 hours after whey protein.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Tetracycline Antibiotics

Theoretically, whey protein might decrease tetracycline absorption.
Whey protein contains minerals, such as calcium, that bind to tetracyclines in the gut. To avoid this interaction, advise patients to take oral tetracyclines at least 2 hours before or 4-6 hours after whey protein.

Will whey protein help me build muscle?
Whey protein isolate is rated possibly effective for athletic performance, which includes muscle recovery and strength training support when combined with exercise. It's not a substitute for training — it's a supplement to help your efforts.

We don't have safety data on file for whey protein in pregnancy or lactation. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist — they can give you personalized advice based on your situation.
Can whey protein help with bone health?
Whey protein isolate is rated possibly ineffective for osteoporosis, so it's not a primary tool for bone health. If bone strength is your goal, ask your doctor about proven options.
