HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Kiwi Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection

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 is straight kiwi powder — one active ingredient. There are no other inactive ingredients listed.

What you're getting is concentrated kiwi in powdered form, so the dose is more concentrated than eating fresh kiwi fruit.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
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

This is a single-ingredient Kiwi product and its label doesn't state a use — see Kiwi's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for kiwi powder in asthma, constipation, high blood pressure, and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is not established in the data we hold — each condition shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate. That doesn't mean it won't help, just that we can't claim it based on what the studies show so far.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Kiwi

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.

Kiwi as a food is generally well tolerated. However, kiwi powder is a concentrated supplement form, and concentrated kiwi supplements haven't been well studied — that's why you should talk to your doctor before using this product.

Some people have hypersensitivity reactions to kiwi, including swelling of the lips, mouth, tongue, and throat; itching; skin reactions; difficulty swallowing; nausea; diarrhea; and in rare cases, severe allergic reactions like anaphylaxis or asthma flare-ups. If you've ever had any reaction to kiwi fruit, steer clear.

For pregnancy and breastfeeding, kiwi is rated likely safe — but that safety rating comes from eating kiwi as a food, not from supplement-strength powder. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this concentrated form is right for you during pregnancy or lactation.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Kiwi

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
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 — Kiwi.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs.
  • For scale: 289 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.

Check before you start if you take blood thinners (antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs) — aspirin, warfarin, clopidogrel, enoxaparin, and others — or blood pressure medications like ACE inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor blockers. Both carry a moderate interaction risk.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Kiwi powder is a single-ingredient supplement that's generally well tolerated as a food, but the concentrated form hasn't been well studied. If you take blood thinners or blood pressure medications, this is not a good fit without clearing it with your doctor first.

Anyone with a history of kiwi allergy should avoid it entirely. Check with your own pharmacist or doctor before starting, especially if you're on any prescription drugs.

Kiwi, Powder2 drug types · 289 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Clinical research suggests that kiwi inhibits platelet aggregation. Theoretically, kiwi might increase the risk of bleeding when used with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs. Some anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs include aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix), dalteparin (Fragmin), enoxaparin (Lovenox), heparin, ticlopidine (Ticlid), warfarin (Coumadin), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Clinical research suggests that consuming kiwi reduces systolic and diastolic blood pressure in hypertensive individuals. Theoretically, concomitant use of kiwi and antihypertensive drugs may increase the risk of hypotension when used in combination with drugs that lower blood pressure. These include captopril (Capoten), enalapril (Vasotec), losartan (Cozaar), valsartan (Diovan), diltiazem (Cardizem), amlodipine (Norvasc), hydrochlorothiazide (HydroDiuril), furosemide (Lasix), and many others.

Kiwi Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection: Common Questions

Does Kiwi Powder by TerraVita Premium Collection interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Kiwi Powder has a known interaction with 289 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Kiwi Powder contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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.
Does kiwi powder actually help with high blood pressure, constipation, or asthma?
The evidence isn't established in the data we hold. While kiwi may lower blood pressure in theory, we don't have reliable studies showing it works for high blood pressure, constipation, asthma, or IBS — so we can't make that claim.
Is kiwi powder safe if I don't have allergies?
Kiwi as a food is generally well tolerated in people without allergies. But this is a concentrated supplement form, and concentrated kiwi supplements haven't been well studied. The safety data we have applies mainly to eating fresh kiwi fruit, not the powder. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using it.
What are the signs of a kiwi allergy?
Reactions can range from mild swelling of the lips, mouth, tongue, or throat to itching, skin rashes, difficulty swallowing, nausea, or diarrhea. In rare cases, severe allergic reactions including anaphylaxis or asthma flare-ups have been reported. If you've had any reaction to kiwi fruit before, don't use this product.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Kiwi is rated likely safe in pregnancy and breastfeeding — but that's based on eating kiwi as food, not on concentrated supplement powder. The concentrated form hasn't been well studied during pregnancy or lactation. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Why is kiwi powder a concern if I take a blood thinner like warfarin?
Kiwi inhibits platelet aggregation — essentially, it works a bit like a blood thinner itself. Combined with warfarin or similar drugs, it may increase your bleeding risk. Your doctor or pharmacist needs to know if you want to use this product.
