HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Natura 301 by AN American Nutriceuticals

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Aug 27, 2026

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.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (250 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

Natura 301 contains 9 ingredients total, most in a proprietary blend. The named active ingredients include poria mushroom (Fu Ling), horny goat weed (Yin Yang Huo), ba ji tian (Ba Ji), and lychee seed (Li Zhi He), along with five traditional Chinese herbs we could not evaluate: Lu Xian Cao, Nu Zhen Zi, Huang Jing, Bai Jiang Cao, and Shi Wei.

The capsule also contains vegetable cellulose as an inactive ingredient.

Does it work?

Moderate 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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Depression — rated "Possibly Effective" (Ba Ji Tian) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for Natura 301's ingredients is limited. Poria mushroom has insufficient evidence for cancer, chronic fatigue, dementia, diabetes, kidney disease from diabetes, or diarrhea.

Horny goat weed similarly lacks reliable evidence for bronchitis, sexual function, osteoporosis, or heart disease. Ba ji tian is rated possibly effective for depression, though human data are sparse.

The other ingredients — Lu Xian Cao, Nu Zhen Zi, Huang Jing, Bai Jiang Cao, Shi Wei, and lychee seed — have no effectiveness ratings in our data. Overall, this product lacks strong clinical evidence to support its use for any specific condition.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Poria Mushroom Horny Goat Weed Ba Ji Tian Lychee

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 3 of the 4 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 4 of 4.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 4 of 4.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Poria mushroom and ba ji tian are generally well tolerated in traditional use, but human safety data are limited. Horny goat weed appears tolerated short-term, though quality varies between products.

The most common side effects from horny goat weed are dizziness, dry mouth, nosebleed, thirst, and vomiting; rarely, respiratory arrest has been reported, and one case of abnormal heart rhythm was noted after 2 weeks of use. Lychee can cause allergic reactions including hives, rash, tongue and lip swelling, shortness of breath, and rarely anaphylaxis.

Lychee has also been linked to a dangerous drop in blood sugar (hypoglycemic encephalopathy) in some children, particularly those who were malnourished. Regarding pregnancy: poria mushroom, ba ji tian, and horny goat weed all lack sufficient safety data and should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Lychee as food is likely fine, but concentrated extracts in pregnancy and breastfeeding are not well studied — talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.

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?
  • 4 of the 4 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Poria Mushroom, Horny Goat Weed, Ba Ji Tian, Lychee.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 1,343 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 Natura 301, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take drugs metabolized by the liver enzyme CYP3A4 (a very common pathway), blood-pressure-lowering medications, blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, hormone therapies, sedatives, diabetes medications, anticholinergic drugs, cholinergic drugs, or immunosuppressants. These interactions are mostly Moderate in severity and are based on laboratory or animal data that has not been confirmed in humans.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Natura 301 is a blend of traditional herbs with limited clinical evidence and a significant interaction profile affecting over 1,300 individual medications. If you take blood-pressure medications, blood thinners, hormone therapy, diabetes drugs, sedatives, or drugs metabolized by your liver's CYP enzymes, this product warrants a careful check before use.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it's appropriate for you and to review your full medication list against it.

Natura 301 by AN American Nutriceuticals: Common Questions

Does Natura 301 by AN American Nutriceuticals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Natura 301 has a known interaction with 1,342 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Natura 301 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.
Does horny goat weed really boost testosterone or sexual function?
The evidence isn't established in our data. Horny goat weed is rated having insufficient evidence for sexual dysfunction, so we don't have reliable clinical proof it works for that purpose. If this is something you're interested in, ask your doctor or pharmacist.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Not based on the safety data we hold. Poria mushroom, horny goat weed, and ba ji tian all lack enough safety information and should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Lychee as a food is likely fine, but concentrated extracts haven't been studied in pregnancy or breastfeeding. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you are pregnant or nursing.
What side effects might I notice?
Horny goat weed commonly causes dizziness, dry mouth, nosebleed, thirst, and vomiting, especially with longer use. Lychee can trigger allergic reactions ranging from hives and rash to swelling of the tongue and lips, shortness of breath, or rarely anaphylaxis. Poria mushroom and ba ji tian are generally well tolerated, though human safety data are limited.
Is this product safe for people with diabetes?
Both ba ji tian and lychee seed interact with diabetes medications and may lower blood sugar on their own. If you take diabetes drugs, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product, as your blood sugar levels and medication dose may need monitoring.
What are the inactive ingredients?
The capsule contains vegetable cellulose. Most of the active ingredients are combined in a proprietary blend, so you won't see their individual amounts on the label.
Why can't you check some of the ingredients?
Lu Xian Cao, Nu Zhen Zi, Huang Jing, Bai Jiang Cao, and Shi Wei are traditional Chinese herbs we hold no interaction or safety data for in our system. That doesn't mean they're unsafe — it means we haven't been able to evaluate them. Your pharmacist may have additional resources if you want more information on these herbs.
