HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Daikon Radish Seed 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: Daikon Radish Seed Glycerite Liquid Extract. Daikon radish is a root vegetable used in traditional medicine, particularly for digestive and liver-related concerns.

The extract is prepared in glycerin, a sweetening agent that also helps preserve the liquid form.

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 Radish product and its label doesn't state a use — see Radish'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 data we hold shows insufficient evidence to rate daikon radish for either biliary disorders (gallbladder and bile duct issues) or diabetes. While animal studies suggest radish may lower blood glucose, we don't have enough reliable human trial data to confirm it works for diabetes in people, and there's no established evidence for its use in biliary conditions.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Radish

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.

Radish is widely eaten as food and is generally well tolerated in normal dietary amounts. However, concentrated supplements are less well studied than the food form — safety data is limited.

Large amounts of radish may irritate the stomach lining and cause mild indigestion. A rare case of allergy has been reported, with symptoms including throat tightness and a skin rash.

Unwashed raw sprouts should be avoided. There isn't enough data on file to know whether this product is safe in pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance if you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding.

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 — Radish.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 86 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.

If you take any antidiabetes drug — insulin, metformin, sulfonylureas, or any other blood-sugar–lowering medication — check with your doctor or pharmacist before adding this product. The Moderate-severity interaction means your blood sugar could drop too low if you combine them.

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.

Daikon radish supplement is worth considering if you're interested in traditional digestive or liver support, but the evidence to prove it works isn't solid yet. The main caution is if you take diabetes medication — this product may lower your blood sugar further, so clear it with your doctor or pharmacist first.

Stick to normal food amounts rather than concentrated supplements if safety concerns you, and talk it over with your own healthcare provider before starting.

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, radish might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research shows that radish extract, juice, and sprouts can reduce glucose levels. Animal research also shows that radish root juice 300 mg/kg reduces fasting and postprandial blood glucose in a rat model of diabetes, with effects similar to glibenclamide.

Daikon Radish Seed by TerraVita: Common Questions

Does Daikon Radish Seed by TerraVita interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Daikon Radish Seed has a known interaction with 86 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Daikon Radish Seed 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 daikon radish actually help with diabetes or liver problems?
The evidence isn't established yet. Animal research hints that radish may lower blood glucose, but we don't have enough reliable human studies to confirm it works for diabetes or for biliary disorders in people.
What are the side effects of taking this supplement?
Most people tolerate it well at normal food amounts. Large amounts may irritate the stomach and cause mild indigestion. A rare case of allergy has been reported, with throat tightness and a skin rash. If you notice stomach upset or any unusual symptoms, stop and talk to your pharmacist.
Is it safe to take during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
There isn't enough data to know either way. If you're pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice before taking this product.
Why does the label warn against unwashed raw sprouts?
Raw sprouts — whether daikon or any other kind — can harbor bacteria like E. coli or salmonella. Washing helps reduce that risk, and cooking kills it outright. This product is a processed extract, so that concern doesn't apply to it.
Is this the same as eating daikon radish in salad?
Not quite. A salad is a food amount of whole radish; this is a concentrated liquid extract. Concentrated supplements are less well studied for safety than the food form, so the caution level is higher.
