HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Horseradish Root Mint Flavor by TerraVita

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

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 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: horseradish root glycerite liquid extract. Horseradish is a pungent root vegetable used traditionally for respiratory and urinary tract support, though the evidence for these uses isn't well established yet.

The product also contains glycerin and mint flavor as inactive ingredients.

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: respiratory and urinary tract health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Respiratory tract infections, Urinary tract infections (UTIs), sinus congestion, sinusitis.
  • The closest evidence on file: Horseradish is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Respiratory tract infections (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Horseradish is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Urinary tract infections (UTIs).

The evidence we hold on horseradish for respiratory tract infections, intestinal parasite infection, urinary tract infections, and gout is currently insufficient to establish whether it works for these purposes. If you're considering this product for one of those reasons, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether the evidence supports its use for your situation.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Horseradish

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.

Horseradish in food amounts is generally well tolerated, but concentrated supplements like this one can irritate your digestive tract and mucous membranes. In large amounts, it may cause gastrointestinal upset, diarrhea, bloody vomiting, or — very rarely — a sudden drop in heart rate and blood pressure (vasovagal syncope).

During pregnancy, medicinal amounts of horseradish are not recommended because safety hasn't been established. During breastfeeding, the safety data shows conflicting ratings (one entry says likely safe, another says likely unsafe), so the picture isn't clear — talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice before using medicinal amounts while nursing.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Horseradish.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 16 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.

The bottom line

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

If you take thyroid hormone medication, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product. For other uses, the evidence on whether horseradish actually works is still unclear.

Keep doses in the food range rather than medicinal amounts to avoid stomach irritation. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, discuss this product with your healthcare provider first.

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 on thyroid medication?

Will this irritate my stomach?
In food amounts, horseradish is generally well tolerated. But this is a concentrated supplement, so larger doses can cause gastrointestinal upset, diarrhea, or bloody vomiting. Start small and see how you tolerate it.
Can I use this while pregnant?

Is it safe to breastfeed while using this?
The data is mixed on this one. There isn't enough clarity in the research to say yes or no. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether medicinal amounts are safe for you while nursing.
What does horseradish actually do?
Traditionally it's been used for respiratory and urinary tract infections, but we don't have reliable evidence yet that it works for those purposes. If you're considering it for a specific health concern, check with your doctor to see whether the evidence supports it.
