HelloPharmacist Scorecard of GlyphoDetox by ecoNugenics

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 2 of its 6 active ingredients.
  • “GlyphoDetox Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (1 Gram(s)) without saying how much of each component you get.

GlyphoDetox contains 6 active ingredients. Glycine is an amino acid; iodine supports thyroid function; citrus pectin is a soluble fiber from citrus fruit; fulvic acid is a compound derived from soil organic matter; organic Icelandic kelp (Ascophyllum nodosum) is a seaweed; and alginate (algin) is a thickener derived from brown algae.

The product also contains several inactive ingredients—hypromellose, water, silicon dioxide, stearic acid, and microcrystalline cellulose—which serve as capsule materials and stabilizers.

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: Glyphosate and pesticide detoxification support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Iodine deficiency, Diarrhea, Radiation exposure, Pesticide elimination, Heavy metal detoxification, Digestive support.
  • 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: Pectin is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diarrhea, Radiation exposure.

The evidence for most ingredients in this product is sparse. Glycine is possibly effective for schizophrenia, but the other conditions it's studied for lack reliable evidence.

Iodine is likely effective for radiation exposure and iodine deficiency, and possibly effective for oral mucositis and periodontitis. Citrus pectin is possibly effective for high cholesterol but lacks evidence for blood sugar control.

Fulvic acid, kelp, and alginate all lack established evidence for the conditions they're associated with in our data.

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 5 of the 6 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 5 of 6.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 6 of 6.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Glycine is generally well tolerated at typical doses, though long-term safety data are limited; rare side effects include mild sedation, soft stools, nausea, and headache. Iodine is safe in normal dietary amounts but high doses can cause thyroid problems, acnelike skin lesions (iododerma), or allergic reactions; adequate iodine matters in pregnancy, but avoid high-dose products.

Citrus pectin from food and typical supplement amounts is generally well tolerated, with rare side effects like gas and loose stools; allergic reactions are rare but possible. Fulvic acid appears well tolerated short-term but has limited human safety data; diarrhea, headache, and sore throat have been reported.

Kelp is generally used in foods but its iodine content and possible heavy metal contamination warrant caution. Alginate is generally well tolerated in food amounts.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in GlyphoDetox 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.

Algimate1 drug type · 2,022 drugs

Oral Drugs

Theoretically, algin can alter the absorption of oral drugs. Laboratory research shows that algin, when consumed as part of the diet or used as a thickening agent in infant formula, reduces the absorption of certain minerals. Also, algin has been used as a tablet binder and disintegrant to enhance drug bioavailability. To avoid changes in absorption, take algin 30-60 minutes after oral medications.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Fulvic Acid3 drug types · 257 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, taking fulvic acid may decrease the effectiveness of anticoagulant and antiplatelet drugs.
In vitro evidence shows that fulvic acid, formed from the oxidation and polymerization of protocatechuic acid, can shorten prothrombin time in human plasma, increasing the risk of clot formation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, taking fulvic acid might decrease the effects of immunosuppressive therapy.
Animal research shows that fulvic acid stimulates immune function.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Thyroid Hormone

Theoretically, taking fulvic acid with thyroid hormone therapy might interfere with the ability to normalize thyroid function.
Animal research shows that fulvic acid increases the plasma level of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and decreases the thyroxine (T4):triiodothyronine (T3) ratio.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Citrus Pectin3 drug types · 23 drugs

Digoxin (Lanoxin)

Theoretically, pectin might reduce the absorption of digoxin, potentially decreasing its effectiveness.
A small clinical study shows that taking digoxin with a kaolin-pectin suspension reduces the absorption of digoxin by about 62%. It is unclear if these effects are due to pectin, kaolin, or the combination.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Lovastatin (Mevacor)

Theoretically, pectin might reduce the absorption of lovastatin, potentially decreasing its effectiveness.
Case reports suggest that concomitant use of pectin and lovastatin might reduce the cholesterol-lowering effect of lovastatin, possibly due to reduced intestinal absorption of lovastatin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Tetracycline Antibiotics

Theoretically, pectin might reduce the absorption of tetracycline antibiotics, potentially decreasing their effectiveness.
A small clinical study shows that taking tetracycline with bismuth subsalicylate in a kaolin-pectin suspension reduces the absorption of tetracycline by about 34%. It is unclear if these effects are due to pectin, kaolin, bismuth subsalicylate, or the combination.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B

organic Icelandic Kelp3 drug types · 22 drugs

Amiodarone (Cordarone)

Theoretically, combining Ascophyllum nodosum with amiodarone might cause excessively high iodine levels.
Ascophyllum nodosum contains iodine, although the bioavailability of iodine from Ascophyllum nodosum is lower than that of potassium iodide. Amiodarone contains 37.3% iodine and can increase iodine levels. Concomitant use might increase the risk of having excessive iodine levels and adversely affecting thyroid function. Monitor thyroid function.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Antithyroid Drugs

Due to its iodine content, Ascophyllum nodosum might alter the effects of antithyroid drugs.
Ascophyllum nodosum contains iodine, although the bioavailability of iodine from Ascophyllum nodosum is lower than that of potassium iodide. Iodine in high doses has been reported to cause both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, depending on the individual's past medical history. Taking Ascophyllum nodosum while using antithyroid drugs could alter the effects of the antithyroid drugs.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Thyroid Hormone

Due to its iodine content, Ascophyllum nodosum might alter the effects of thyroid hormone.
Ascophyllum nodosum contains iodine, although the bioavailability of iodine from Ascophyllum nodosum is lower than that of potassium iodide. Iodine in high doses has been reported to cause both hyperthyroidism and hypothyroidism, depending on the individual's past medical history. Taking Ascophyllum nodosum while using thyroid hormone could alter the effects of thyroid hormone.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

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

Glycine1 drug type · 1 drug

Clozapine (Clozaril)

Theoretically, glycine might decrease the effectiveness of clozapine.
One small clinical study in patients with schizophrenia shows that adding glycine to clozapine therapy worsens symptoms of schizophrenia when compared with clozapine alone. The mechanism of this interaction is unclear.

GlyphoDetox by ecoNugenics: Common Questions

Does GlyphoDetox by ecoNugenics interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, GlyphoDetox has a known interaction with 2,120 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
GlyphoDetox contains 6 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 this if I'm pregnant?
Some ingredients have limited safety data in pregnancy. Iodine is likely safe at advised doses, and pectin is likely safe, but fulvic acid and kelp should be avoided due to insufficient safety information. Glycine and alginate don't have pregnancy data on file. Talk with your doctor before taking this product while pregnant.
Is this safe while breastfeeding?
Dietary amounts of iodine and pectin are likely fine, but concentrated supplements of pectin haven't been well studied. Fulvic acid and kelp should be avoided—iodine and other compounds can pass into breast milk. Check with your healthcare provider before use.
What side effects might I experience?
The most common reported side effects are gastrointestinal: diarrhea, gas, loose stools, nausea, and mild stomach discomfort. Headache and sore throat have been reported with fulvic acid. Rare allergic reactions are possible with pectin or iodine. Mild sedation is rare with glycine. Most side effects are mild and resolve quickly when you stop taking the product.
Does this product actually work for glyphosate detox?
The ingredients in this product don't have established evidence for detoxifying glyphosate or any herbicide. Fulvic acid, kelp, pectin, and the others are studied for other conditions—many without reliable evidence—but none are shown to remove glyphosate from your body.
Why does this product contain both iodine and kelp if kelp also has iodine?
Kelp contains iodine naturally, so adding separate iodine means this product delivers more iodine than kelp alone would. High iodine doses can cause thyroid problems, so this combination warrants extra caution if you're on thyroid medication or have thyroid conditions.
