HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Gly-Sea-Max Proprietary Brown Seaweed And Potato Protein Extracts by Douglas Laboratories

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.
  • “Potato Protein extract” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (300 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains 3 active ingredients. The primary one is iodine, a mineral your body needs to make thyroid hormones and regulate metabolism.

The other actives are a proprietary blend called Gly-Sea-Max (made from brown seaweed and potato protein extracts) and proteinase inhibitors — enzymes that may have biological activity. We don't have detailed breakdown data on the proprietary blend or proteinase inhibitors themselves.

The capsules also contain inactive ingredients: cellulose, vegetable stearate, and silica — these are fillers and binders that help hold the supplement together.

Does it work?

Strong 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
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Iodine support for thyroid health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Iodine deficiency, Hyperthyroidism, Thyroid cancer, Thyroid storm, Radiation exposure, Thyroid function — and 1 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Iodine is rated "Likely Effective" for Radiation exposure (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Iodine is rated "Likely Effective" for Iodine deficiency.
  • Also on file: Iodine is rated "Possibly Effective" for Thyroid storm.

Iodine is likely effective for preventing radiation exposure and treating iodine deficiency — two well-established uses. It's also possibly effective for oral mucositis (mouth sores) and periodontitis (gum disease), though the evidence for those is less complete.

We don't have effectiveness data on file for the brown seaweed extract, potato protein extract, or proteinase inhibitors, so we can't tell you what the full product is intended to do beyond iodine's roles.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Iodine Potato

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.

Iodine is well tolerated when you take normal dietary amounts and stay under the tolerable upper limit. High doses can cause thyroid problems — too much iodine can trigger either high thyroid activity (hyperthyroidism) or low thyroid activity (hypothyroidism).

Common mild side effects include abdominal upset, diarrhea, nausea, metallic taste, and headache. Rare serious reactions include allergic responses like angioedema and anaphylaxis.

In pregnancy, you need adequate iodine, but only in the amount your doctor advises — avoid high-dose products. In breastfeeding, some iodine passes into breast milk, so follow your doctor's guidance.

The safety data shows iodine is likely safe in pregnancy but possibly unsafe if overused, so personalized medical advice is important.

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 — Iodine.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: lithium.
  • For scale: 7 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 doctor or pharmacist if you're on lithium, antithyroid drugs, or amiodarone (Cordarone). All three carry Moderate risk of thyroid dysfunction when combined with iodine and will need thyroid function monitoring.

The bottom line

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

Gly-Sea-Max is mainly an iodine supplement, useful if you're deficient or at risk of radiation exposure. If you take lithium, antithyroid drugs, or amiodarone, you need to talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting it — these combinations require thyroid monitoring.

Even if you don't take those medications, run this product through the search tool with your complete medication list to be sure.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Gly-Sea-Max Proprietary Brown Seaweed And Potato Protein Extracts 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.

Iodine3 drug types · 7 drugs

Amiodarone (Cordarone)

Combining iodine with amiodarone might cause excessively high iodine levels.
Amiodarone contains 37.3% iodine and can increase iodine levels. Concomitant use with iodine might increase the risk of having excessive iodine levels and adversely affecting thyroid function. Monitor thyroid function.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Antithyroid Drugs

Iodine might alter the effects of antithyroid drugs.
Iodine in high doses has been reported to cause both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, depending on the individual's past medical history. Taking iodine while using antithyroid drugs could alter the effects of the antithyroid drugs.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Lithium

Combining iodine with lithium might have additive hypothyroid effects.
Lithium can inhibit thyroid function. Several case reports suggest that concomitant use of lithium and potassium iodide can reduce thyroid function in otherwise healthy adults. Monitor thyroid function.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Iodine full monograph & interactions

Potato Protein extract2 drug types · 7 drugs

Succinylcholine

In humans, consuming potatoes prior to preoperative fasting prolongs the duration of the succinylcholine-induced neuromuscular block and slows recovery from anesthesia. This interaction is possibly related to inhibition of the butyrylcholinesterase enzyme by potato glycoalkaloids.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Thrombolytic Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of potato may enhance the effects of thrombolytic drugs. A carboxypeptidase inhibitor isolated from potato tubers may have inhibitory effects on thrombin-activatable thrombolysis inhibitor, and thereby enhance the activity of thrombolytic agents.
