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 powder contains 2 active ingredients: sodium and potassium. Sodium is an essential mineral that helps regulate fluid balance and nerve function; potassium does the same and supports heart rhythm.

The inactive ingredients are organic beef bone broth protein and organic turmeric root powder, which serve as the base and flavoring.

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

We hold no graded evidence for this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Joint, gut, and immune health support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Joint health, Gut health, Immune function.
  • Our graded evidence for these ingredients doesn't cover that particular purpose.

Our data does not include effectiveness ratings for sodium or potassium as ingredients in a bone broth supplement product. The effectiveness ratings on file for sodium relate to its use in treating specific medical conditions (like cystic fibrosis or bipolar disorder), not to bone broth protein powders for general wellness.

Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product meets your personal health goals.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Sodium Potassium

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.

Sodium is generally well tolerated at normal dietary amounts, but excess intake is linked to high blood pressure, heart strain, and kidney disease—especially if you have existing heart or kidney conditions. Potassium from food is generally safe, but supplements can raise blood levels dangerously in people with kidney disease.

Both minerals have rare serious adverse effects at very high levels. The safety data advises caution: normal dietary amounts are fine, but avoid adding large supplemental amounts without medical guidance.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Organic Bone Broth Protein Turmeric 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.

Sodium7 drug types · 205 drugs

Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, a high intake of dietary sodium might reduce the effectiveness of antihypertensive drugs.
High intake of dietary sodium can increase systolic and diastolic blood pressure. Also, high intake of sodium may necessitate increased use of antihypertensive medications to achieve blood pressure control in some patients, such as those with chronic kidney disease.

Likelihood Probable Evidence A
Corticosteroids

Concomitant use of mineralocorticoids and some glucocorticoids with sodium supplements might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Mineralocorticoids and some glucocorticoids (corticosteroids) cause sodium retention. This effect is dose-related and depends on mineralocorticoid potency. It is most common with hydrocortisone, cortisone, and fludrocortisone, followed by prednisone and prednisolone.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Didanosine (Videx)

Concomitant use of didanosine with additional sodium from dietary or supplemental sources may increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Didanosine formulations contain a significant amount of sodium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence C
Lithium

Altering dietary intake of sodium might alter the levels and clinical effects of lithium.
High sodium intake can reduce plasma concentrations of lithium by increasing lithium excretion. Reducing sodium intake can significantly increase plasma concentrations of lithium and cause lithium toxicity in patients being treated with lithium carbonate. Stabilizing sodium intake is shown to reduce the percentage of patients with lithium level fluctuations above 0.8 mEq/L. Patients taking lithium should avoid significant alterations in their dietary intake of sodium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Sodium Phosphates

Theoretically, concomitant use of sodium phosphate with sodium supplements might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Use of high doses (> 45 mL in 24 hours) of sodium phosphate, such as those used for bowel cleansing before surgery, can lead to serious electrolyte disturbances, including hypernatremia. The risk of hypernatremia is highest in the elderly and people with other risk factors for electrolyte disturbances.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Sodium-Containing Drugs

Concomitant use of sodium-containing drugs with additional sodium from dietary or supplemental sources may increase the risk of hypernatremia and long-term sodium-related complications.
The Chronic Disease Risk Reduction (CDRR) intake level of 2.3 grams of sodium daily indicates the intake at which it is believed that chronic disease risk increases for the apparently healthy population. Some medications contain high quantities of sodium. When used in conjunction with sodium supplements or high-sodium diets, the CDRR may be exceeded. Additionally, concomitant use may increase the risk for hypernatremia; this risk is highest in the elderly and people with other risk factors for electrolyte disturbances.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Tolvaptan (Samsca)

Theoretically, concomitant use of tolvaptan with sodium might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Tolvaptan is a vasopressin receptor 2 antagonist that is used to increase sodium levels in patients with hyponatremia. Patients taking tolvaptan should use caution with the use of sodium salts such as sodium chloride.

Likelihood Probable Evidence C
Sodium full monograph & interactions

Potassium3 drug types · 62 drugs

Ace Inhibitors (Aceis)

Using ACEIs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
ACEIs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion. Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia. However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels.

Likelihood Likely Evidence C
Angiotensin Receptor Blockers (Arbs)

Using ARBs with high doses of potassium increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
ARBs block the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and reduce potassium excretion. Concomitant use of these drugs with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia. However, concomitant use of these drugs with moderate dietary potassium intake (about 3775-5200 mg daily) does not increase serum potassium levels.

Likelihood Likely Evidence C
Potassium-Sparing Diuretics

Concomitant use increases the risk of hyperkalemia.
Using potassium-sparing diuretics with potassium supplements increases the risk of hyperkalemia.

Organic Bone Broth Protein Turmeric by Natural Force: Common Questions

Does Organic Bone Broth Protein Turmeric by Natural Force interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Organic Bone Broth Protein Turmeric has a known interaction with 220 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Organic Bone Broth Protein Turmeric contains 3 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 while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Sodium is rated likely safe in pregnancy but possibly unsafe in breastfeeding. Potassium is rated likely safe in both. Because the ratings differ and personalized advice matters here, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product fits your situation.
What are the most common side effects?
Potassium can cause stomach upset—abdominal pain, belching, diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, and vomiting. Sodium is generally well tolerated in normal amounts. Serious side effects from either mineral are rare but can include heart rhythm problems and very high blood pressure if levels get too high.
Is the turmeric in this product going to interact with my medications?
We don't have interaction data on file for turmeric root powder in this product. Your doctor or pharmacist can advise whether turmeric is safe with your specific medications.
Can I take this if I have kidney disease?
Both sodium and potassium can be risky with kidney disease because your kidneys help regulate these minerals. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you have kidney problems.
Why does the product contain sodium and potassium if they interact with so many drugs?
Both minerals come naturally in bone broth and are essential for your body. The amounts in normal food are fine for most people; the interactions mainly apply when you're taking additional supplements or when you have certain medications or conditions that make these minerals risky.
