HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Grounding Green by Flower Essence Services

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 0 of its 9 active ingredients.
  • “infusions of flowers of” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.
  • “Essential Oils” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

Grounding Green contains nine botanical ingredients, primarily flower infusions and essential oils. The checked actives are Alchemilla vulgaris and Atlantic Cedar; we hold no checked data for Rosa chinensis viridiflora, Swertia radiata, Moluccella laevis, Platanthera sparsiflora, Nicotiana alata, Abies alba, and Picea sitka.

The product also contains water and brandy as inactive ingredients (the brandy acts as a preservative in the liquid formula).

Does it work?

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

The label doesn't state a purpose we can grade — see each ingredient's own graded uses on its monograph instead.

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 does not establish effectiveness for Alchemilla vulgaris in treating postoperative sore throat or canker sores — the evidence is insufficient to rate either use. Atlantic Cedar's potential role in alopecia areata (hair loss condition) also shows insufficient evidence to rate.

Because this is a traditional flower essence blend, the individual ingredients' active properties in supporting specific health outcomes remain unproven in our data.

How safe is it?

Some data gaps
Safety Information · database check
Some gaps

Safety data exists for these ingredients, but with some important gaps.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 0 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.

Alchemilla vulgaris is generally considered low-risk in small amounts, but human safety data are limited. The safety data advises against using Alchemilla during pregnancy and while breastfeeding due to insufficient information.

Atlantic Cedar is traditionally used topically in diluted form — the undiluted oil can irritate skin and should not be swallowed. Atlantic Cedar should also be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Because this product is a liquid blend, talk with your pharmacist about how much dilution, if any, it contains and whether it's appropriate for your situation.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Alchemilla Atlantic Cedar

Meds to double-check

Minor interactions only
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Minor only

Only Minor-severity interactions are documented for these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Alchemilla.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Minor.
  • For scale: 198 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 use any topical drugs or medications applied directly to skin or the mouth, let your pharmacist know before adding this product; Alchemilla may cause local irritation when used topically. For the seven other botanical ingredients in this blend, we hold no interaction data, so review your full medication list with your pharmacist to be sure.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no assessable stated purpose. Only minor medication interactions are documented, and some safety-information gaps remain.

Grounding Green is a traditional flower essence with limited established effectiveness and safety data for most of its ingredients. It carries a Minor interaction risk with topical drugs through Alchemilla, and both Alchemilla and Atlantic Cedar are not recommended in pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

If you're pregnant, nursing, using any medications — especially topical treatments — or have questions about whether this blend suits your health, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

Topical Drugs

While no side effects have been reported from orally using Alchemilla, a clinical study titled "Treatment of Aphthous Stomatitis with Topical Alchemilla vulgaris in Glycerine," published in Clinical Drug Investigation (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17163290/), found that local mouth irritation occurred after applying a commercial product containing 3% alchemilla extract and glycerol (Aphtarine, Laboratoires Biosphere). Aphtarine was non-irritating in 68.2% of cases within 2-3 days, in 18.8% of cases within 4-7 days, and in 13.6% of cases with moderate irritation. Theoretically, combining Alchemilla with other potentially irritating topical products could increase the risk of local irritation and discomfort. The drug in this drug interaction monograph is available in a topical dosage form. There is no interaction expected from the oral dosage form of the drug.

Grounding Green by Flower Essence Services: Common Questions

Does Grounding Green by Flower Essence Services interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Grounding Green has a known interaction with 198 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Grounding Green contains 9 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 Grounding Green safe to use while I'm pregnant?
No — two of the main ingredients, Alchemilla vulgaris and Atlantic Cedar, have insufficient safety data and should be avoided during pregnancy. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
The safety data advises against it. Both Alchemilla vulgaris and Atlantic Cedar should be avoided while breastfeeding because there isn't enough information to know it's safe. Check with your pharmacist or doctor first.
Does this product actually work for anything?
The evidence in our data does not establish effectiveness for either Alchemilla (for sore throat or canker sores) or Atlantic Cedar (for hair loss). This is a traditional flower essence blend, and its active benefits remain unproven.
What is Alchemilla vulgaris used for in this product?
Traditionally it's been used to support the mouth and throat, but we hold insufficient evidence to say it actually works for postoperative sore throat or canker sores. The ingredient is generally low-risk in small amounts, though human safety data are limited.
Can I use this if I'm applying topical medications to my skin or mouth?
Alchemilla in this product has a documented Minor interaction with topical drugs — a clinical study found local mouth irritation when a commercial Alchemilla product was applied directly to the mouth. Let your pharmacist review your specific topical medications before you start this blend.
