HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Super Chlorella 1000 mg by Wonder Laboratories

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 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • “Chlorella” is listed as a grouped ingredient — the label gives one combined amount (1,000 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.

This product contains one active ingredient: chlorophyll, the green pigment found in plants. Chlorophyll is what's responsible for the supplement's intended effects.

The tablet also contains two inactive ingredients — vegetable cellulose and vegetable magnesium stearate — which are used as a binder and flow agent to hold the pill together.

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

This is a single-ingredient Chlorophyll product and its label doesn't state a use — see Chlorophyll's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

The evidence for chlorophyll doesn't yet support its use for genital herpes, wound healing, shingles, skin cancer, or pancreatitis. For all of these conditions, the data we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate whether it works.

That doesn't mean it's ineffective — it means well-designed studies haven't established whether it does or doesn't.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Chlorella Chlorophyll

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.

Chlorophyll is generally well tolerated when you take it short-term, though we don't have a lot of high-quality safety data on long-term use. The most common side effect is photosensitivity — your skin becomes more sensitive to sunlight.

In rare cases, people taking oral chlorophyll have developed pseudoporphyria, a condition that causes easily-bruised blisters on the hands. During pregnancy, there isn't enough reliable safety information, so the data advises against it.

During breastfeeding, safety is unknown — avoid it unless your own doctor tells you it's okay.

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 — Chlorophyll.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 337 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 if you use photosensitizing drugs (medications that increase sun sensitivity) or methotrexate. Both have Moderate interactions documented with chlorophyll.

No interactions are documented for the chlorella component we could check.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This is a single-ingredient supplement with a clear interaction profile. If you take methotrexate or photosensitizing drugs (like certain antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medications), you'll want to clear this with your doctor or pharmacist first.

For everyone else, the main caution is that it can make your skin light-sensitive, so sun protection matters if you take it. Talk it over with your pharmacist before starting, especially if you're on any prescription medications.

Chlorella2 drug types · 337 drugs

Photosensitizing Drugs

Theoretically, chlorella might have additive effects with photosensitizing drugs.
Chlorella has been reported to cause photosensitization. In five case reports, patients who had ingested chlorella exhibited swelling followed by erythematopurpuric lesions on sun-exposed areas of the body. Theoretically, concomitant use with photosensitizing drugs may exacerbate effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, chlorella might reduce the clinical effects of warfarin.
Chlorella contains significant amounts of vitamin K. There is at least one case report of warfarin therapy becoming sub-therapeutic after initiation of chlorella supplements.

Super Chlorella 1000 mg by Wonder Laboratories: Common Questions

Does Super Chlorella 1000 mg by Wonder Laboratories interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Super Chlorella 1000 mg has a known interaction with 339 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Super Chlorella 1000 mg 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 chlorophyll actually work for herpes or wound healing?
The evidence we have isn't strong enough to say yes or no. Chlorophyll hasn't been proven for genital herpes, shingles, wound healing, or the other conditions listed on this product — all of them show insufficient evidence. That doesn't mean it won't work for you, just that we don't have solid data yet.
What are the most common side effects?
The main one is photosensitization — your skin becomes more sensitive to sunlight, which can cause a rash or burning feeling when you're outside. In rare cases, oral chlorophyll has caused pseudoporphyria, a blistering condition on the hands. Most people don't report serious side effects, but thorough safety studies haven't been done.
Can I take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
During pregnancy, there isn't enough reliable safety data, so it's best avoided. During breastfeeding, safety is unknown — skip it unless your own doctor advises otherwise. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant or nursing and considering this supplement.
Why does this interact with methotrexate?
Chlorophyll may slow how quickly your body clears methotrexate, which could let the drug build up in your system. One case report showed this happened, and when the patient stopped chlorophyll two days before their methotrexate dose, clearance went back to normal. Timing may matter, so discuss it with your doctor.
What's the difference between chlorophyll and chlorella?
Chlorophyll is the green pigment found in plants — that's the active ingredient we checked for interactions. Chlorella is a type of algae that contains chlorophyll, and it's also in this product, but we couldn't fully assess its individual interactions. Both are in the supplement.
