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 6 of its 6 active ingredients.
  • “Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fat” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

This powder contains 6 active ingredients: eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which are two omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil; vitamin D; and several types of unsaturated fats. The omega-3s are the main therapeutic components — they're the marine-derived fats you'd typically get from eating fatty fish.

The product also contains inactive ingredients (the carriers and flavoring agents): water, fish oil, xylitol, glycerine, gum arabic, natural flavors, citric acid, xanthan gum, vitamin E, rosemary extract, green tea extract, ascorbyl palmitate, guar gum, beta-carotene, and vegetable juice. These help the powder mix smoothly and stay fresh.

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
Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports this product's ingredients for its stated purpose, but it isn't conclusive.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: heart health, brain function, joints and bones.
  • We looked for evidence on: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Coronary heart disease (CHD), Heart failure, Hyperlipidemia, Hypertension, Atrial fibrillation — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Vitamin D is rated "Possibly Effective" for Heart failure (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Vitamin D is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Cardiovascular disease (CVD).
  • Also on file: Vitamin D is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Age-related cognitive decline, Alzheimer disease, Atrial fibrillation, Cognitive function, and more.

Vitamin D in this product is established as effective for several bone and mineral conditions: familial hypophosphatemia, osteomalacia (soft bones from vitamin D deficiency), renal bone disease, rickets, and hypoparathyroidism. The omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) are the signature ingredients here, but effectiveness data for them isn't included in the facts we hold for this product, so we can't tell you what the evidence shows for their use in this smoothie.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin D Docosahexaenoic Acid (dha)

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.

Vitamin D is generally well tolerated at recommended doses, though very high amounts over time can cause toxicity — symptoms include elevated blood calcium (hypercalcemia), which can lead to bone loss in adults and slowed growth in children. The data notes vitamin D is often used during pregnancy at standard doses and is acceptable while breastfeeding, but in both cases you should only do so under your doctor's guidance, especially if you're taking higher amounts.

Rare serious side effects from excessive doses include kidney problems (azotemia) and anemia. The other ingredients in this smoothie — the omega-3s and fats — weren't assessed for adverse effects in the data we hold.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin D Docosahexaenoic Acid (dha)

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 — Vitamin D.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: heart-rhythm medications.
  • For scale: 716 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 take this smoothie, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take any of these: thiazide diuretics or other blood pressure medications, heart rhythm drugs (verapamil, diltiazem, or digoxin), atorvastatin or other statins for cholesterol, topical psoriasis treatments like calcipotriene, or supplements containing aluminum. The vitamin D in this product interacts with all of these, and some interactions can affect how well your medications work or increase your risk of serious side effects.

The bottom line

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

This smoothie makes sense if you're looking to add omega-3 fatty acids and vitamin D to your diet, and the vitamin D is proven effective for bone and mineral disorders. However, if you take medications for heart rhythm, blood pressure, cholesterol, or if you're on certain supplements like topical psoriasis treatments, you need to check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — the vitamin D content can interact with a large number of drugs.

Talk it through with your healthcare provider to make sure it's right for you and your current medications.

For each ingredient in Omega-3 Mango Peach Smoothie with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Vitamin D8 drug types · 715 drugs

Aluminum

Vitamin D might increase aluminum absorption and toxicity, but this has only been reported in people with renal failure.
The protein that transports calcium across the intestinal wall can also bind and transport aluminum. This protein is stimulated by vitamin D, which may therefore increase aluminum absorption. This mechanism may contribute to increased aluminum levels and toxicity in people with renal failure, when they take vitamin D and aluminum-containing phosphate binders chronically.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Atorvastatin (Lipitor)

Vitamin D might reduce absorption of atorvastatin.
A small, low-quality clinical study shows that taking vitamin D reduces levels of atorvastatin and its active metabolites by up to 55%. However, while atorvastatin levels decreased, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels did not substantially change. Atorvastatin is metabolized in the gut by CYP3A4 enzymes, and researchers theorized that vitamin D might induce CYP3A4, causing reduced levels of atorvastatin. However, this proposed mechanism was not specifically studied.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Calcipotriene (Dovonex)

Taking calcipotriene with vitamin D increases the risk for hypercalcemia.
Calcipotriene is a vitamin D analog used topically for psoriasis. It can be absorbed in sufficient amounts to cause systemic effects, including hypercalcemia. Theoretically, combining calcipotriene with vitamin D supplements might increase the risk of hypercalcemia.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Digoxin (Lanoxin)

Theoretically, hypercalcemia induced by high-dose vitamin D can increase the risk of arrhythmia from digoxin.
High doses of vitamin D can cause hypercalcemia. Hypercalcemia increases the risk of fatal cardiac arrhythmias with digoxin. Avoid vitamin D doses above the tolerable upper intake level (4000 IU daily for adults) and monitor serum calcium levels in people taking vitamin D and digoxin concurrently.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Diltiazem (Cardizem, Others)

Theoretically, hypercalcemia induced by high-dose vitamin D can reduce the therapeutic effects of diltiazem for arrhythmia.
High doses of vitamin D can cause hypercalcemia. Hypercalcemia can reduce the effectiveness of verapamil in atrial fibrillation. Theoretically this could also occur with diltiazem. Avoid vitamin D doses above the tolerable upper intake level (4000 IU daily for adults) and monitor serum calcium levels in people taking vitamin D and diltiazem concurrently.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Thiazide Diuretics

Theoretically, taking thiazide diuretics and high-dose vitamin D can increase the risk of hypercalcemia.
Thiazide diuretics decrease urinary calcium excretion, which could lead to hypercalcemia if vitamin D supplements are taken concurrently. This has been reported in people being treated with vitamin D for hypoparathyroidism, and also in elderly people with normal parathyroid function who were taking a thiazide, vitamin D, and calcium-containing antacids daily.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Verapamil (Calan, Others)

Hypercalcemia induced by high-dose vitamin D can reduce the therapeutic effects of verapamil for arrhythmia.
Hypercalcemia due to high doses of vitamin D can reduce the effectiveness of verapamil in atrial fibrillation. Avoid vitamin D doses above the tolerable upper intake level (4000 IU daily for adults) and monitor serum calcium levels in people taking vitamin D and verapamil concurrently.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Vitamin D might induce CYP3A4 enzymes and reduce the bioavailability of CYP3A4 substrates.
There is some concern that vitamin D might induce CYP3A4. In vitro research suggests that vitamin D induces CYP3A4 transcription. Additionally, observational research has found that increased UV light exposure and serum vitamin D levels are associated with decreased serum levels of CYP3A4 substrates such as tacrolimus and sirolimus, while no association between UV light exposure or vitamin D levels and levels of mycophenolic acid, a non-CYP3A4 substrate, was found. A small, low-quality clinical study shows that taking vitamin D reduces levels of the CYP3A4 substrate atorvastatin and its active metabolites by up to 55%; however, the clinical effects of atorvastatin were not reduced. While researchers theorized that vitamin D might induce CYP3A4, this proposed mechanism was not specifically studied.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Vitamin D full monograph & interactions

Omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fat3 drug types · 375 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, DHA may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Although some clinical evidence suggests that DHA might reduce collagen-stimulated platelet aggregation and thromboxane release, most clinical evidence suggests that DHA alone does not affect blood clotting. However, theoretically, when given in combination with EPA as fish oil, concomitant use with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs (including aspirin) might increase risk of bleeding.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking DHA with antidiabetes drugs might reduce the effects of these medications.
In people with type 2 diabetes, including those taking oral hypoglycemic medications, DHA seems to increase fasting blood glucose levels.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking DHA with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Fish oils containing DHA can lower blood pressure and might have additive effects in patients treated with antihypertensives; use with caution.

Omega-3 Mango Peach Smoothie by Barlean's Seriously Delicious: Common Questions

Does Omega-3 Mango Peach Smoothie by Barlean's Seriously Delicious interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Omega-3 Mango Peach Smoothie has a known interaction with 963 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Omega-3 Mango Peach Smoothie 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.
Is this safe to take while I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Vitamin D in this product is rated likely safe during pregnancy at recommended doses and likely safe while breastfeeding, but only under your doctor's supervision — especially if you're taking higher amounts than the standard recommendation. The pregnancy and breastfeeding safety of the omega-3 ingredients isn't on file. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you.
What are EPA and DHA, and why are they in here?
EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid) and DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) are omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil. They're the key active ingredients in this smoothie, which is why it's marketed as an omega-3 supplement. We don't have effectiveness data on file for them in this particular product.
What does the vitamin D do in this smoothie?
Vitamin D is proven effective for several bone and mineral conditions, including rickets, osteomalacia (soft bones), hypoparathyroidism, familial hypophosphatemia, and renal bone disease. It also helps your body absorb calcium and maintain bone health.
Will this cause vitamin D toxicity if I take it regularly?
Vitamin D is safe at recommended doses. Toxicity only happens with very high amounts over time. At normal supplement levels in a smoothie, you're unlikely to overdose — but if you're also taking other vitamin D supplements or prescription vitamin D, check with your pharmacist to make sure your total daily intake stays safe.
What are the inactive ingredients, and are there any fillers?
The inactive ingredients are water, fish oil, xylitol, glycerine, gum arabic, natural flavors, citric acid, xanthan gum, vitamin E, rosemary extract, green tea extract, ascorbyl palmitate, guar gum, beta-carotene, and vegetable juice. These are normal carriers and preservatives that help the powder mix and stay fresh.
