HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Immuno Benefits by DaVinci Benefits Line

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

Partial disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Partial

Most active ingredients list an amount, but at least one is hidden in a blend or missing.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • “Colostrum” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (500 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.
  • “Wellmune” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (250 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Immuno Benefits contains 2 active ingredients: Colostrum and Immunoglobulin, plus Baker's Yeast (also called Brewer's Yeast) and Wellmune—a branded yeast beta-glucan ingredient meant to support immune function. The product also contains several inactive ingredients (fillers and capsule materials): Hypromellose, Microcrystalline Cellulose, and Leucine.

Does it work?

Not established
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 established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use — see Brewer's Yeast's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: support healthy immune function.
  • We looked for evidence on: Exercise-induced respiratory infections, Influenza, Lower respiratory tract infections, Upper respiratory tract infection (URTI), Wound healing, Critical illness (trauma) — and 4 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Brewer's Yeast is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Influenza (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Brewer's Yeast is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Clostridioides difficile infection.

The ingredient data we have shows that Baker's Yeast may be possibly effective for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). For other conditions like Clostridioides difficile infection, influenza, high cholesterol, and hay fever, the evidence available isn't strong enough yet to rate its usefulness.

We don't have effectiveness ratings for Colostrum or Immunoglobulin in our records.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Beta-glucans Brewer's Yeast

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.

Baker's Yeast is generally well tolerated in food amounts, though some people experience gas or headaches. In rare cases, sensitive individuals have had serious reactions like anaphylaxis.

People with weakened immune systems should be cautious. The safety of concentrated Baker's Yeast supplements during pregnancy and breastfeeding hasn't been well studied—food amounts are likely fine, but check with your provider about supplement doses.

We don't have safety data on file for Colostrum or Immunoglobulin during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.

Meds to double-check

Major interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Major identified

At least one ingredient has a documented Major-severity interaction. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Brewer's Yeast.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 136 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 pharmacist if you use MAOIs (older antidepressants), diabetes medications, lithium, or antifungal drugs. Baker's Yeast in this formula can interact with all of these—potentially raising blood pressure dangerously, lowering blood sugar too much, adding to lithium levels, or reducing the product's effectiveness.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glancePartially disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product may help some people with irritable bowel syndrome, but evidence for other immune-related uses isn't established in our data. If you take an MAOI antidepressant, diabetes medication, lithium, or antifungal drugs, run this product through the medication checker below first.

Talk with your pharmacist before starting, especially if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a weakened immune system.
