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.

ZHOU Tart Cherry contains two active ingredients: celery and tart cherry extract. Celery is included in this formula, though its role isn't specified on the label.

Tart cherry extract—a concentrated form of the fruit—is the main active component; research suggests it may support athletic performance and recovery from exercise-induced muscle soreness, though the evidence for other uses listed (ADHD, cognitive function, fibromyalgia) is insufficient at this time. The capsule also contains inactive ingredients: vegetable cellulose (the capsule itself), maltodextrin (a filler), and silica (a flow agent).

Does it work?

Not established
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 established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Antioxidant support for uric acid cleanse and joint comfort.
  • We looked for evidence on: Gout, Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Exercise-induced muscle soreness, Aromatase inhibitor-induced arthralgia, Joint inflammation — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Sour Cherry is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Exercise-induced muscle soreness (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Sour Cherry is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Osteoarthritis, Gout, Aromatase inhibitor-induced arthralgia.
  • Also on file: Celery is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Osteoarthritis, Rheumatoid arthritis (RA), Gout.

The evidence for tart cherry extract is strongest for athletic performance, where it's possibly effective. For other conditions on the label—ADHD, cognitive function, exercise-induced muscle soreness, respiratory infections, and fibromyalgia—the evidence is insufficient to rate it either way.

Celery's effectiveness for the conditions listed on this product (sexual dysfunction, anxiety, headache, depression, diabetes, indigestion) all lack enough reliable evidence to rate. So while tart cherry may help athletic recovery, we don't have solid data supporting this product for the other claims.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Celery Sour Cherry

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.

Tart cherry extract is generally well tolerated as whole fruit and juice, though concentrated supplements are less studied. Some people taking high doses have reported abdominal pain, loose stools, and general gastrointestinal upset—about 29% of children taking a daily concentrate reported belly pain in one trial.

A rare case of skin reaction possibly linked to cherry allergy has been reported. Celery is safe as a food but concentrated supplements warrant caution.

Most people tolerate it well, but allergic reactions are possible—ranging from oral itching and throat burning (oral allergy syndrome) to laryngeal swelling and, rarely, anaphylactic shock. Sun sensitivity (photosensitivity) is the most common side effect.

Celery seed shouldn't be taken in medicinal amounts during pregnancy because it may affect the uterus, though food amounts are likely fine. There's not enough data on breastfeeding safety with supplements, so it's best avoided while nursing.

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 — Celery.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; lithium.
  • For scale: 651 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 taking ZHOU Tart Cherry, double-check with your pharmacist if you take blood thinners (anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs like warfarin or aspirin), thyroid medication (levothyroxine/Synthroid), antidepressants (particularly venlafaxine/Effexor), blood pressure drugs, lithium, or acetaminophen regularly. Also mention any drugs that make you sun-sensitive or are metabolized by your liver's CYP1A2 enzyme.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This product may be worth considering if you're interested in tart cherry for athletic recovery, though the research isn't definitive. If you take any prescription medications—especially blood thinners, thyroid drugs, antidepressants, blood pressure medications, or lithium—talk with your pharmacist before starting, because celery interacts with several common drugs.

Anyone with a celery or cherry allergy should skip this. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, check with your doctor or pharmacist first.

Celery8 drug types · 651 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, celery root might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
Celery root contains the constituents falcarinol and falcarindiol. Laboratory research suggests that these constituents can inhibit platelet aggregation. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, celery seed extract might have additive effects with antihypertensive drugs.
Clinical research suggests that taking celery seed extract may reduce daytime systolic blood pressure by about 12 mmHg compared to less than 1 mmHg with placebo.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, celery might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro and animal research suggests that constituents of celery can inhibit CYP1A2. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Levothyroxine (Synthroid, Others)

Theoretically, celery seed might decrease the effects of levothyroxine.
Several cases of hypothyroidism with low T4 levels have been reported in people who were previously stabilized on levothyroxine and then started taking celery seed tablets. They presented with symptoms such as lethargy, bloating, and dry skin, and recovered when celery seed was stopped. However, celery stem and leaf has been associated with case reports of hyperthyroidism in patients with no pre-existing thyroid disorders.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, celery might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium due to potential diuretic effects.
Celery is thought to have diuretic properties. However, this effect has not been confirmed in humans.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Venlafaxine (Effexor)

Theoretically, celery root extract might increase blood levels of venlafaxine.
There is one case report of a patient who experienced medication-induced bipolar disorder after beginning to take celery root extract 1000 mg daily along with venlafaxine 75 mg and St. John's wort 600 mg daily. Symptoms included confusion, speech abnormalities, manic affect, and visual hallucinations. The plasma level of venlafaxine was 476.8 ng/mL (normal range 195-400 ng/mL). It is theorized that celery root increased venlafaxine levels by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2D6.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Acetaminophen (Tylenol, Others)

Theoretically, celery juice might increase the effects and side effects of acetaminophen.
Animal research suggests that concomitant use of celery juice plus acetaminophen prolongs the effects of acetaminophen. This effect has been attributed to a decrease in hepatic cytochrome P450 activity. However, other animal research shows that pretreatment with celery root extract protects against acetaminophen-induced acute liver failure. These effects have not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Photosensitizing Drugs

Theoretically, celery might increase the risk of photosensitivity reactions when taken with photosensitizing drugs.
Laboratory research shows that celery contains photosensitizing agents such as phenols and psoralens.

Tart Cherry by ZHOU: Common Questions

Does Tart Cherry by ZHOU interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Tart Cherry has a known interaction with 651 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Tart Cherry 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Tart cherry is likely safe in pregnancy at food amounts, but we don't have enough safety data for concentrated supplements. Celery seed in medicinal doses may affect the uterus, so avoid it in pregnancy; food amounts are probably okay. There's not enough data on breastfeeding safety with celery supplements, so it's best avoided while nursing. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about what's right for you.
Does tart cherry actually work for sore muscles after exercise?
Research suggests tart cherry extract is possibly effective for athletic performance and exercise recovery. That's the strongest evidence we have for this product. For other conditions on the label—ADHD, cognitive function, fibromyalgia—the evidence isn't established in our data.
What are the most common side effects?
Tart cherry may cause abdominal pain, loose stools, or general stomach upset, especially at higher doses—about 29% of children in one study reported belly pain. Celery's most common side effect is sun sensitivity. Allergic reactions to celery are possible, from mild mouth itching to severe swelling or anaphylactic shock in sensitive people.
Is celery in this product safe if I have a celery allergy?
No. Raw celery, cooked celery, celery juice, and celery supplements can all trigger allergic reactions in sensitive people. If you have a celery allergy, skip this product entirely.
What does the celery do in this formula?
The label doesn't specify a role for celery in this tart cherry supplement, so we don't know why it's included. That said, celery does have interactions with several medications, so it's important to check your prescriptions before taking this.
