HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Norwegian Beta 1,3/1,6 Glucan by Flora

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 Jul 11, 2026

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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: beta-glucan derived from a Nordic source. Beta-glucan is a type of soluble fiber found naturally in foods like oats and mushrooms.

The capsule also contains several inactive ingredients — gelatin, sucrose fatty acid ester, silicon dioxide, and water — that help deliver the beta-glucan.

Does it work?

Strong 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.

Strong

Strong 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: Constipation — rated "Effective" (Black Psyllium) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Coronary heart disease (CHD) — rated "Likely Effective" (Black Psyllium) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Dyslipidemia — rated "Likely Effective" (Beta-glucans) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence supports beta-glucan for managing cholesterol levels (dyslipidemia) and supporting heart health. It's rated Likely Effective for both lowering cholesterol and reducing the risk of coronary heart disease.

The research behind these ratings is solid enough that if heart health or cholesterol control is your goal, this ingredient has real science behind it.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Black Psyllium Beta-glucans

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 2 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.

Beta-glucans from food sources are generally well tolerated by most people. However, concentrated supplements like this one lack the long-term safety data we have for food amounts, so caution is advised with regular use.

During breastfeeding, there isn't enough research on supplement doses to know either way, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice. When taken orally, adverse effects are rare; topical formulations have occasionally caused mild, self-limiting skin reactions in a small number of trial participants.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Black Psyllium Beta-glucans

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Black Psyllium, Beta-glucans.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; heart-rhythm medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 2,103 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 you start, check whether you take any blood pressure medications (antihypertensives) or drugs that suppress your immune system (immunosuppressants). Beta-glucans may lower blood pressure further and could theoretically interfere with immune-suppressing therapy.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

If you're looking to support heart health or manage cholesterol, beta-glucan is backed by solid evidence. Just double-check with your pharmacist if you take blood pressure medication or any drug that suppresses your immune system — the product may amplify or interfere with how those work.

If you're breastfeeding, ask your doctor or pharmacist whether this supplement is right for you.

Dietary Fiber7 drug types · 2,025 drugs

Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Theoretically, black psyllium might reduce the effects of carbamazepine and increase the risk for convulsions.
Theoretically, black psyllium might reduce carbamazepine absorption. A preliminary study using blond psyllium reported decreased carbamazepine bioavailability due to binding of the drug to psyllium, as well as reduction of available fluid in the gut for dissolution of the drug. This interaction may also occur with black psyllium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as lithium might reduce lithium absorption.
The fiber in black psyllium might reduce lithium absorption and plasma levels. Some case reports describe a reduction in plasma lithium levels with concomitant administration of blond psyllium. This was reversed when psyllium was stopped. This interaction may also occur with black psyllium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Metformin (Glucophage)

Theoretically, black psyllium might increase the therapeutic and adverse effects of metformin.
Animal research shows that concurrent consumption of blond psyllium with metformin slows and increases the absorption of metformin. This interaction may also occur with black psyllium. To avoid changes in absorption, take psyllium 30-60 minutes after metformin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Olanzapine (Zyprexa)

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as olanzapine might reduce olanzapine absorption.
The fiber in black psyllium might decrease the absorption of olanzapine. A single case report describes a reduction in the effectiveness of olanzapine when it was concomitantly administered with an unspecified type of psyllium 3 grams orally twice daily. This effect was reversed when psyllium was stopped.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Digoxin (Lanoxin)

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as digoxin might reduce digoxin absorption and decrease digoxin levels.
Psyllium might bind digoxin in the gut. However, some clinical evidence suggests that psyllium does not impact digoxin absorption.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Ethinyl Estradiol

Theoretically, taking black psyllium at the same time as ethinyl estradiol might alter levels of estradiol.
Concurrent use of blond psyllium with ethinyl estradiol results in a slight increase in the extent of ethinyl estradiol absorption and a slower rate of absorption. This is unlikely to be clinically significant.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Oral Drugs

Theoretically, psyllium might increase, decrease, or have no effect on the absorption of oral drugs.
Psyllium seems to have variable effects on drug absorption. To avoid changes in absorption, take psyllium 30-60 minutes after oral medications. Animal research shows that blond psyllium delays and increases the absorption of metformin and ethinyl estradiol. Case reports and animal research suggest that blond psyllium might reduce absorption of lithium, digoxin, olanzapine, and carbamazepine. Finally, some pharmacokinetic studies show that psyllium does not affect the absorption of levothyroxine or warfarin. Although many of these studies evaluated blond psyllium, the fiber content in black psyllium may have similar effects.

Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking beta-glucans with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Clinical research shows that taking beta-glucans may reduce systolic and diastolic blood pressure in some hypertensive individuals.

Yes. Based on its ingredients, Norwegian Beta 1,3/1,6 Glucan has a known interaction with 2,102 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Norwegian Beta 1,3/1,6 Glucan contains 2 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 beta-glucan actually help with cholesterol and heart health?
Yes — the evidence rates it as Likely Effective for both lowering cholesterol (dyslipidemia) and supporting coronary heart disease prevention. That's solid scientific support, not just theory.
What are the side effects?
Taken by mouth, beta-glucans are generally well tolerated with few reported adverse effects. One child in a clinical trial developed temporary liver enzyme changes, but that was at a very high dose. Overall, it's a safe ingredient when used as directed.
Is it safe to take if I'm breastfeeding?
There isn't enough research on supplement doses during breastfeeding to say either way. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — they can give you personalized advice based on your situation.
What is beta-glucan, and where does it come from?
Beta-glucan is a type of soluble fiber naturally found in foods like oats, barley, and mushrooms. This product sources it from a Nordic origin, and it works by supporting your immune system and helping manage cholesterol.
Will this product interfere with my blood pressure medication?
Possibly. Beta-glucans can lower blood pressure on their own, so combining them with blood pressure drugs could theoretically drop your pressure too low. Check your exact medications with the tool on this page or ask your pharmacist before you start.
