HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Acai 100 by GT Genesis Today

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 5 of its 7 active ingredients.
  • “Genesis Today's Organic Acai Liquid Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (30 Gram(s)) without saying how much of each component you get.

Organic Acai 100 contains 7 active ingredients. The main components are omega fatty acids—omega-3 (as DHA), omega-6, omega-7, and omega-9—along with vitamin A, citric acid, and an organic acai berry juice blend.

These work together to deliver a mix of essential fatty acids and antioxidants from the acai fruit. The product has no inactive ingredients listed, so what you're getting is just the active components in liquid form.

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: supports healthy appearance.
  • We looked for evidence on: Acne, Aging skin, Atopic dermatitis (eczema), skin vitality, dermatological health.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Vitamin A is rated "Possibly Effective" for Aging skin (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Docosahexaenoic Acid (dha) is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Atopic dermatitis (eczema).
  • Also on file: Vitamin A is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Acne, Atopic dermatitis (eczema).

The evidence for most uses in this product is incomplete or absent. Omega-3 (DHA) is possibly effective for high cholesterol and preterm labor prevention, but it's possibly ineffective for ADHD and cognitive function.

Vitamin A shows promise for vitamin A deficiency (where it's effective) and possibly helps with oral leukoplakia, aging skin, measles, ulcerative colitis, and bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Omega-6 has insufficient evidence for the conditions we've reviewed.

Citric acid and acai both lack reliable evidence for their listed uses—the data doesn't establish whether they work for aging skin, erectile dysfunction, high cholesterol, obesity, or other claims sometimes made about them. If you're considering this for a specific health goal, talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist to see what the current evidence supports.

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 4 of the 5 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 5 of 5.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 5 of 5.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Omega-3 (DHA) is generally well tolerated up to 3 grams daily; most side effects are mild—belching, fishy aftertaste, loose stools, nausea. Vitamin A is generally well tolerated at recommended amounts but builds up in the body and can become toxic at high doses, causing headaches, liver damage, skin problems, and in severe cases, pressure inside the skull.

Omega-6 from food is fine, but supplement safety isn't well established. Citric acid at the small amounts in this product is generally recognized as safe.

Acai as a food is well tolerated, though high-dose supplement effects aren't well studied. For pregnancy, vitamin A carries a mixed rating—it's likely safe at normal amounts but possibly unsafe at high doses because excess retinol can cause birth defects.

DHA and omega-6 are rated likely safe in pregnancy but also possibly unsafe; the data isn't clear-cut, so discuss dosing and source with your doctor. Acai hasn't been studied in pregnancy or breastfeeding, so caution is advised.

If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, run this by your doctor or pharmacist before starting.

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?
  • 3 of the 5 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Docosahexaenoic Acid (dha), Vitamin A, Acai.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 720 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 with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you use retinoid drugs (like isotretinoin or tretinoin), blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs, antihypertensive medications, diabetes drugs, tetracycline antibiotics, or medications that can harm the liver. No interactions are documented for omega-6 or citric acid in our data.

The bottom line

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

This product is built on omega fatty acids and vitamin A—ingredients with real science behind some uses (like DHA for high cholesterol) but also real potential for interactions with common medications. If you take blood thinners, diabetes drugs, high blood pressure medication, tetracycline antibiotics, or liver-stressing drugs, check with your doctor or pharmacist before adding it.

It's not inherently unsafe, but it's not a one-size-fits-all either.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Organic Acai 100 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 A4 drug types · 387 drugs

Retinoids

Concomitant use of retinoids with vitamin A supplements might produce supratherapeutic vitamin A levels.
Retinoids, which are vitamin A derivatives, could have additive toxic effects when taken with vitamin A supplements.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Hepatotoxic Drugs

Theoretically, taking high doses of vitamin A in combination with other potentially hepatotoxic drugs might increase the risk of liver disease.
The tolerable upper intake level (UL) is the highest level of intake that is likely to pose no risk of adverse effects. Doses of vitamin A above the UL can cause hepatotoxicity, ranging from elevated liver enzymes to liver failure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence C
Tetracycline Antibiotics

Theoretically, taking tetracycline antibiotics with high doses of vitamin A can increase the risk of pseudotumor cerebri.
Benign intracranial hypertension (pseudotumor cerebri) can occur with tetracyclines and with acute or chronic vitamin A toxicity. Case reports suggest that taking tetracyclines and vitamin A concurrently can increase the risk of this condition. Avoid high doses of vitamin A in people taking tetracyclines chronically.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, high doses of vitamin A could increase the risk of bleeding with warfarin.
Vitamin A toxicity is associated with hemorrhage and hypoprothrombinemia, possibly due to vitamin K antagonism. Advise patients taking warfarin to avoid doses of vitamin A above the tolerable upper intake level of 10,000 IU/day for adults.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Vitamin A full monograph & interactions

Omega-3 Fatty Acids3 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.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B

Organic Acai 100 by GT Genesis Today: Common Questions

Does Organic Acai 100 by GT Genesis Today interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Organic Acai 100 has a known interaction with 719 medications, including 9 rated major. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Organic Acai 100 contains 7 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.
Can I take this if I'm on warfarin or another blood thinner?
Not without checking first. Omega-3 (DHA) in this product may increase bleeding risk, and vitamin A at high doses can work against warfarin. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist about your specific dose and blood thinner before starting.
Is this safe for someone with diabetes who's on medication?
The omega-3 and acai in this product may interfere with blood sugar control and reduce how well your diabetes medications work. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it.
What are the common side effects of DHA in this product?
Most people experience mild effects: belching, fishy aftertaste, loose stools, and nausea. These typically happen at higher doses and often settle down with time.
Can I take this while pregnant?
The safety data for these ingredients in pregnancy is mixed—some are likely safe at normal amounts, others possibly unsafe at high doses. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product and its dose are right for you in pregnancy.
Does this product have fillers or extra ingredients?
No inactive ingredients are listed, so you're getting the seven active components—the omega fatty acids, vitamin A, citric acid, and acai—with nothing else added.
What is acai actually in this product for?
Acai is an antioxidant-rich berry juice included in the blend, though the evidence that it works for the conditions it's often marketed for—like aging skin or high cholesterol—isn't established in our data.
