HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Folate Gold 800 mcg DFE by NutriGold

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

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • “Organic Food Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (375 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Folate Gold contains three active ingredients. Folate is the B vitamin that helps your body make and repair DNA and support cell division.

You're also getting organic spinach and organic lemon extract, both common food sources with additional nutritional value. The capsule itself is vegan, and the product includes organic rice concentrate as an inactive ingredient to keep everything blended together.

Does it work?

Insufficient 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
Insufficient

There isn't enough reliable clinical evidence to rate this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: support healthy pregnancy and fetal development.
  • We looked for evidence on: Pre-eclampsia, Pregnancy-induced nausea and vomiting, Neural tube defects, Birth outcomes, Maternal health.
  • The closest evidence on file: Lemon is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Pregnancy-induced nausea and vomiting (Natural Medicines).

The evidence we hold doesn't establish that spinach or lemon extract work for the conditions they're sometimes marketed for — including fatty liver disease, cognitive function, muscle strength, weight loss, or PCOS. Effectiveness ratings for both are insufficient reliable evidence.

This product is primarily a folate supplement, and we don't have effectiveness data on file for that ingredient.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Organic Food Spinach Lemon

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.

Spinach as a food is safe for most people and is considered safe during pregnancy and while breastfeeding. It's well tolerated when eaten normally.

Lemon in food amounts is generally safe, though concentrated supplements or essential oils haven't been well studied and are best cleared with your doctor first. Side effects are rare at food doses.

With larger amounts of fresh lemon juice — like 60 mL twice daily — some people reported heartburn and stomach upset in clinical trials. Allergic reactions are possible in sensitive individuals, and infants under 4 months should avoid spinach due to a rare risk of methemoglobinemia.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Organic Food Spinach Lemon

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 — Spinach, Lemon.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 89 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 start, check with your own doctor or pharmacist if you take warfarin or any blood thinner — spinach's vitamin K content can reduce how well they work. Also flag any antidiabetes drugs, where spinach may increase low blood sugar risk.

If you take itraconazole (Sporanox) for a fungal infection, mention this supplement as well.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with insufficient evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This is a straightforward folate supplement with spinach and lemon added. If you take blood thinners like warfarin or diabetes medications, you'll want to check with your doctor or pharmacist first — spinach can interfere with both.

For anyone else without those concerns, folate Gold is generally well tolerated at food-based doses.

Folate Gold 800 mcg DFE by NutriGold: Common Questions

Does Folate Gold 800 mcg DFE by NutriGold interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Folate Gold 800 mcg DFE has a known interaction with 89 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Folate Gold 800 mcg DFE contains 2 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.
Is this safe to take during pregnancy?
Spinach as a food is considered safe during pregnancy and provides folate, which is important in pregnancy. We don't have specific pregnancy data on file for the folate, lemon extract, or the blend as a whole — talk with your doctor or midwife about whether this supplement is right for you individually.
Will this help with energy or brain fog?
We don't have evidence that the spinach or lemon extract in this product work for brain function or energy. Folate does play a role in energy metabolism, but we don't have effectiveness data on file for the folate itself in this supplement.
Can I take this if I'm on blood pressure medication?
We don't have documented interactions between this product and blood pressure drugs, but check with your pharmacist or doctor to confirm with your specific medications.
What's in the capsule itself?
It's a vegan capsule made from plant-based material, not gelatin. The product also contains organic rice concentrate as a binder and filler to keep the powder blended together.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
Spinach as a food is considered safe while breastfeeding. We don't have specific breastfeeding safety data on file for the folate or lemon extract in this supplement — ask your doctor or pharmacist to confirm it's okay for your situation.
Are there any side effects at normal doses?
Spinach and lemon are well tolerated as foods. Some people who consume large amounts of fresh lemon juice — much more than what's in a capsule — have reported heartburn and stomach upset. Allergic reactions are rare but possible in sensitive individuals.
