HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Cordastra by Beachbody Nutritionals

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.

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 3 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Cordastra contains 3 active ingredients. Astragalus is a traditional plant used in Chinese medicine.

Cordyceps is a fungus that's been studied for potential energy and immune effects. The product also includes a Herbal Activating System, though we hold no interaction data for that ingredient.

The capsule itself contains inactive ingredients — hypromellose (the capsule shell), magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide — which are fillers and binders with no active role.

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.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Energy, stamina, and immune system support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Athletic performance, Fatigue, Chemotherapy-related fatigue, Post-stroke fatigue, Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI), Endurance — and 2 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Cordyceps is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Athletic performance (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Cordyceps is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Fatigue.
  • Also on file: Astragalus is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Chemotherapy-related fatigue, Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI), Post-stroke fatigue.

The evidence for what astragalus can do is incomplete: we have insufficient data to say whether it works for allergic rhinitis, amenorrhea, aplastic anemia, angina, asthma, or beta-thalassemia. Cordyceps shows a different picture — it appears ineffective for athletic performance, and we lack enough evidence to know if it helps sexual dysfunction, arrhythmias, asthma, lung cancer, or COPD.

Because the effectiveness ratings in our data don't establish clear benefit for any of these uses, you'll want to talk with your doctor about whether this product fits what you're trying to do.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Astragalus Cordyceps

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Astragalus is generally well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, but solid human safety data is limited. Cordyceps is also generally well tolerated when used for up to a year, though quality varies widely between products and evidence overall is thin.

The most common side effects from cordyceps are mild — abdominal discomfort, constipation, or diarrhea — and can sometimes be reduced by taking it with food. One case report linked a cordyceps-containing product to liver inflammation (hepatitis), though it's unclear whether cordyceps itself was to blame or if a contaminant caused it.

Both astragalus and cordyceps should be avoided during pregnancy and while breastfeeding — there isn't enough safety data either way to know they're okay in those situations. If you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or nursing, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product.

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Cordyceps, Astragalus.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 336 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 you take Cordastra, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take immunosuppressants (used after transplant or for autoimmune diseases) — astragalus may reduce how well they work. Also confirm your use if you're on blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs like warfarin or aspirin, diabetes medications, or lithium.

Astragalus could worsen low blood sugar risk or increase lithium levels, and cordyceps might raise bleeding risk. The Herbal Activating System ingredient has no interaction data we could check, so run your complete medication list through the tool below.

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.

Cordastra is worth a closer look if you're interested in immune support or energy, but the evidence for what it actually does is weak or absent. The bigger question is whether it will interfere with medications you take — especially if you're on blood thinners, diabetes drugs, immunosuppressants, or lithium.

Check your exact medications with the tool on this page, and talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist before you start, particularly if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or managing a chronic condition.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Cordastra with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Cordyceps3 drug types · 249 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, cordyceps may increase the risk of bleeding when used with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs.
In vitro and animal research suggests that cordyceps extract inhibits platelet aggregation and function. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, concurrent use of cordyceps might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
Animal and in vitro research suggests that cordyceps stimulates the immune system. However, limited clinical research suggests that taking cordyceps may lower the necessary therapeutic dose of the immunosuppressant cyclosporine, which suggests that cordyceps may have an immunosuppressive effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Testosterone

Theoretically, concurrent use of cordyceps and testosterone might have additive effects.
Animal research suggests that cordyceps can increase testosterone levels. The clinical significance of this finding is unclear.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cordyceps full monograph & interactions

Astragalus4 drug types · 208 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking astragalus with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research in humans shows that astragalus might have hypoglycemic effects. Theoretically, taking astragalus, especially in combination with other hypoglycemic agents, might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.

Likelihood Probable Evidence A
Cyclophosphamide

Theoretically, astragalus might interfere with cyclophosphamide therapy.
Evidence regarding the effect of astragalus on immunosuppression caused by cyclophosphamide is conflicting. Some animal research suggests that astragalus reverses cyclophosphamide-induced immunosuppression. However, other animal research shows no effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, astragalus might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
Astragalus seems to stimulate immune function. Theoretically, taking astragalus might decrease the effects of immunosuppressive therapy.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, astragalus might increase levels and adverse effects of lithium.
Animal research suggests that astragalus has diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to this diuretic effect, astragalus might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Cordastra by Beachbody Nutritionals: Common Questions

Does Cordastra by Beachbody Nutritionals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Cordastra has a known interaction with 336 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Cordastra contains 3 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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 Cordastra if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No — not enough safety data exists for either astragalus or cordyceps during pregnancy or breastfeeding. The safety data advises against it in both cases. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before you take this product if you're pregnant, planning pregnancy, or nursing.
What are the most common side effects?
Cordyceps may cause mild stomach issues — abdominal discomfort, constipation, or diarrhea. These are uncommon and sometimes improve if you take cordyceps with food. Astragalus side effects are less well documented, but dizziness has been reported in studies, though it may not have been caused by the ingredient itself.
Is Cordastra proven to work?
The evidence isn't strong. For astragalus, we don't have enough reliable data to say it works for the conditions listed. Cordyceps appears ineffective for athletic performance and lacks solid evidence for other uses. Talk with your doctor about whether this product makes sense for what you're trying to achieve.
How long can I safely take Cordastra?
Cordyceps appears well tolerated for up to a year in research. Astragalus is considered generally well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, but long-term safety data is limited. If you plan to use this regularly, check with your pharmacist or doctor.
What does each ingredient do?
Astragalus is a traditional plant used in Chinese medicine. Cordyceps is a fungus studied for potential effects on energy and immune function. The Herbal Activating System is included in the formula, but we have no interaction or effectiveness data on file for it.
