HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Find Strength by Nature's Sunshine Flower Essence Formula
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
Low disclosure
This liquid formula contains 8 ingredients, including vegetable glycerin as a base and an infusion of flower essences. The active botanical ingredients we can identify are centaury (a traditional digestive herb), yarrow (used historically for various wellness purposes), and California goldenrod.
The product also contains three other flower infusions we don't have detailed data for: Calochortus leichtlinii, Pinus sylvestris, Mimulus cardinalis, and Fuchsia magellanica.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The evidence on these botanicals is limited. Glycerol (the vegetable glycerin base) is rated likely effective for constipation and possibly effective for athletic performance, but that's not the main purpose of this formula.
For the flower essences themselves — centaury, yarrow, goldenrod, and the others — we don't hold effectiveness data in our records. The evidence for their wellness claims isn't established in the information available to us.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Glycerol is generally well tolerated in normal amounts, though large doses can cause bloating, nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, and headache. Yarrow, taken orally, seems well tolerated, but topical contact can cause allergic or irritant dermatitis, and handling the flowers has rarely triggered respiratory symptoms.
Yarrow should not be used in pregnancy because it may affect the uterus, and safety while breastfeeding isn't known. Centaury is traditionally used in small amounts as a digestive bitter, but high-quality safety data are limited; it should be avoided in pregnancy and while breastfeeding.
For the other flower ingredients, we have no specific safety data on file.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
If you take lithium, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using this product — yarrow may raise lithium levels and side effects, and your dose might need adjustment. We could not check the interaction potential of several of the flower ingredients in this blend, so run your complete medication list through our search tool before you start.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This is a flower essence blend that may appeal to you if you're drawn to traditional botanical formulas. If you take lithium or any other prescription medications, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — the yarrow content may affect lithium levels.
Avoid it in pregnancy and while breastfeeding, or talk with your healthcare provider about whether it's right for you.

Find Strength by Nature's Sunshine Flower Essence Formula Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Find Strength by Nature's Sunshine Flower Essence Formula contains yarrow, which interacts with one medication type.
The main concern is lithium (a mood stabilizer). Yarrow has diuretic activity that may theoretically reduce how your body clears lithium, raising its levels and side effects — and your dose might need adjusting.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
We could not check several of the flower ingredients in this formula: Calochortus leichtlinii, Pinus sylvestris, Mimulus cardinalis, and Fuchsia magellanica. Glycerol and centaury, which are also in the blend, show no interactions documented in our data, though that is not a guarantee none exist.
Altogether, these interactions span 1 individual medication. If you take lithium or any other prescription medication, run it through the search tool on this page before starting this product.
