HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Organic Carrot Powder by Sunny Green

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

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: organic carrot powder. Carrots are a whole-food source of beta-carotene and other nutrients.

The inactive ingredients are organic guar gum and silica, which help with texture and flow in the powder 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: Vitamin A and antioxidant nutrition from beta-carotene.
  • We looked for evidence on: Vitamin A deficiency, Eye health, Vision support, Antioxidant status.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Carrot is rated "Possibly Effective" for Vitamin A deficiency (Natural Medicines).

Carrot powder is rated possibly effective for vitamin A deficiency. For breast cancer, colorectal cancer, fibromyalgia, and prostate cancer, the evidence we hold is insufficient to rate whether it helps or doesn't.

That doesn't mean it's ineffective—just that solid clinical data isn't established yet.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Black Psyllium Carrot

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.

Carrot as a food is well tolerated by most people, and the powder form is generally well tolerated too. Some people are allergic to carrot; allergic reactions can range from hives and swelling to respiratory symptoms like asthma or trouble swallowing, and in rare cases anaphylaxis.

Gastrointestinal reactions like diarrhea have also been reported. During pregnancy and breastfeeding, eating carrots as food is fine, but the safety data advises against high-dose supplements, seed oil, or concentrated extracts—the data on those forms during these periods isn't solid enough yet.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Black Psyllium Carrot

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 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Black Psyllium.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: heart-rhythm medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 2,026 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.

No interactions are documented for the ingredients we could check. Still, confirm with your own pharmacist or doctor that it's okay to add this to your routine alongside any medications you take.

Ingredients driving the most interactions

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Organic Carrot Powder with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

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.

Does Organic Carrot Powder by Sunny Green interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Organic Carrot Powder has a known interaction with 2,025 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Organic Carrot Powder contains 4 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 during pregnancy?
Eating whole carrots as food is fine during pregnancy. However, the safety data advises against high-dose carrot supplements, seed oil, or concentrated extracts during pregnancy—there just isn't enough study of those forms to know they're safe. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this powder is right for you.
What about while breastfeeding?
Carrots as food are safe while breastfeeding. Concentrated carrot supplements or seed products, though, haven't been well studied in breastfeeding, so the data advises caution. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product while nursing.
Can I be allergic to carrot powder?
Yes. Some people are allergic to carrot. Allergic reactions can include hives, swelling, respiratory symptoms like asthma or throat swelling, or gastrointestinal symptoms like diarrhea. If you know you're allergic to carrots, don't use this product.
Does this really help with vitamin A deficiency?
Carrot powder is rated possibly effective for vitamin A deficiency, meaning there's some evidence it helps. If you suspect a deficiency, though, talk with your doctor—they can test you and recommend the right dose or form for your situation.
What are the inactive ingredients?
The powder contains organic guar gum and silica as inactive ingredients. These help keep the powder flowing smoothly and hold it together.
