HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Tulsi Moringa by Organic India

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.

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 5 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Organic Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (2 Gram(s)) without saying how much of each component you get.

This tea contains 5 ingredients: lemongrass, moringa, holy basil (also called tulsi or East Indian basil), and two proprietary blends listed as ingredients. The active components are the herbs themselves.

There are no inactive ingredients listed. Lemongrass is an herb traditionally used in teas and cooking.

Moringa is a leafy plant rich in nutrients. Holy basil—the main ingredient in the tulsi blend—is a traditional herb in Ayurvedic medicine.

Each brings its own compound profile to the blend.

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: Stress relief and nourishment.
  • We looked for evidence on: Stress, Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), Malnutrition, Fatigue, Adaptogenic support, Wellness tonification.
  • The closest evidence on file: Lemongrass is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Fatigue (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Holy Basil is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), Stress.
  • Also on file: Moringa is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Malnutrition.

The evidence we hold does not establish that any of these ingredients work reliably for their traditional uses. Lemongrass, moringa, and holy basil have all been studied for conditions like headache, diabetes, cough, asthma, and anxiety, but the data we have rates all of them as having insufficient reliable evidence to rate their effectiveness for these purposes.

This doesn't mean they don't work—it means the clinical evidence isn't strong enough to say either way.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Lemongrass Moringa Holy Basil

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 3 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 3 of 3.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 3 of 3.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Lemongrass is likely safe in food amounts, but medicinal or concentrated doses should be avoided due to limited safety data and traditional concerns. Moringa leaf generally seems well tolerated as food, though a small number of trial participants experienced transient diarrhea (about 1 in 4 in one study), and rare cases of serious allergic reactions including anaphylaxis have been reported.

Roots and bark of moringa may be unsafe and should be avoided. Holy basil is generally well tolerated short-term in adults, but long-term safety data are limited.

A small number of trial participants reported nausea or loose stools. The safety data advise against moringa during pregnancy (though it's rated possibly safe) and against holy basil during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient human data.

For lemongrass, pregnancy safety is rated likely unsafe, and breastfeeding safety is not rated in our data—talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized guidance if you're pregnant or 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?
  • 3 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Lemongrass, Holy Basil, Moringa.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 964 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 this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you use blood thinners (anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs) or barbiturate sedatives like pentobarbital, as holy basil and lemongrass may increase bleeding risk or sedative effects. Also flag diabetes medications (the product may lower blood sugar further), thyroid medication (moringa may interfere), and any drug your liver processes heavily, since these ingredients may raise or lower drug levels in unpredictable ways.

If you take any of these, run your exact medications through the checker on this page.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This is a traditional herbal tea blend, but the active ingredients haven't been proven effective for specific health claims in our data. More importantly, if you take medications for blood clotting, diabetes, thyroid disease, or any drug your liver processes, you need to check your exact prescriptions against the interactions listed here before starting it.

Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should talk with their doctor or pharmacist first. For anyone else using it occasionally as a food-form tea, it's generally tolerated—but if you're using medicinal amounts, the safety information is too limited to recommend that.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Tulsi Moringa 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.

Moringa6 drug types · 869 drugs

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, moringa might increase or decrease levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
Some in vitro research suggests that moringa inhibits cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). However, other in vitro research suggests that moringa extract induces CYP3A4 enzymes. A pharmacokinetic study in patients with HIV shows no change in the pharmacokinetics of nevirapine, which is partially metabolized by CYP3A4, when administered concomitantly with moringa leaf powder 1.85 grams daily for 14 days.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Levothyroxine (Synthroid, Others)

Theoretically, moringa leaf can antagonize the effects of levothyroxine.
Animal research suggests that moringa aqueous leaf extract might reduce serum triiodothyronine (T3) concentrations by inhibiting the peripheral conversion of thyroxine (T4) to T3.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
P-Glycoprotein Substrates

Theoretically, moringa leaf extract might increase the levels and clinical effects of P-glycoprotein substrates.
In vitro research shows that moringa leaf extract inhibits renal P-glycoprotein transport activity. So far, this reaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, moringa might have additive effects when used with antidiabetes drugs; however, research is conflicting.
Animal research shows that moringa can lower blood glucose levels. However, research in humans has not shown consistent blood glucose lowering effects.

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

Theoretically, moringa might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research shows that moringa extract induces CYP1A2 enzymes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Nevirapine (Viramune)

Moringa leaf is unlikely to have a clinically significant interaction with nevirapine.
Nevirapine is partially metabolized by cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4). In vitro evidence suggests that moringa inhibits CYP3A4. However, a pharmacokinetic study in patients with HIV shows no change in nevirapine pharmacokinetics when administered concomitantly with moringa leaf powder 1.85 grams daily for 14 days.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Moringa full monograph & interactions

Lemongrass3 drug types · 708 drugs

Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, lemongrass might decrease the metabolism of CYP3A4 substrates.
Animal research shows that lemongrass and its constituent citral inhibit CYP3A4.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Glucuronidated Drugs

Theoretically, lemongrass might increase the clearance and decrease the levels of glucuronidated drugs.
Animal research shows that lemongrass and its constituent citral induce uridine diphosphoglucuronosyl transferase (UGT), the major phase 2 enzyme that is responsible for glucuronidation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Pentobarbital (Nembutal)

Theoretically, lemongrass might increase the effects and adverse effects of pentobarbital.
Animal research shows that high doses of lemongrass essential oil increases sleep time and decreases time to fall asleep in animals administered pentobarbital.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lemongrass full monograph & interactions

Holy Basil3 drug types · 212 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, holy basil seed oil might increase the risk of bleeding when used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal research shows that holy basil seed oil can prolong bleeding time, possibly due to inhibition of platelet aggregation. However, it is not known if this occurs in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, holy basil might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Small clinical studies show that taking holy basil can decrease fasting blood glucose and other measures of glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Pentobarbital (Nembutal)

Theoretically, holy basil seed oil might increase the sedative effects of pentobarbital.
Animal research shows that holy basil seed oil increases pentobarbitone-induced sleeping time. However, it is not known if this occurs in humans or if this applies to other barbiturates or sedatives.

Tulsi Moringa by Organic India: Common Questions

Does Tulsi Moringa by Organic India interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Tulsi Moringa has a known interaction with 963 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Tulsi Moringa contains 5 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 it safe to drink if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
No, not reliably. Lemongrass is rated likely unsafe in pregnancy. Moringa is possibly safe in pregnancy but possibly unsafe—the data are mixed. Holy basil is rated possibly unsafe in both pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient human safety data and animal concerns. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using this product if you're pregnant or nursing.
What's actually in this tea, and do any of the ingredients have no interactions?
It contains lemongrass, moringa, holy basil (tulsi), and two proprietary blends. All three checked active ingredients have documented interactions with medications—none of them are interaction-free.
Can this help with diabetes or blood sugar?
The evidence we hold rates moringa and holy basil as having insufficient reliable evidence for diabetes. Animal research and small human studies suggest holy basil may lower blood sugar, but if you take diabetes medication, that could be a problem—it might add to the blood-sugar-lowering effect and cause low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before combining it with diabetes drugs.
What side effects might I have?
The most common are loose stools and nausea, reported by a small number of people in studies of moringa and holy basil. Moringa can also cause transient diarrhea. Rare but serious allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported with moringa.
Is this safe to use long-term?
Short-term use of holy basil and moringa leaf seems generally well tolerated, but high-quality long-term safety data are limited. Lemongrass safety data in medicinal amounts are also limited, and concentrated forms should be avoided. If you're thinking about daily or long-term use, talk with your doctor or pharmacist first.
Does it actually work for what the brand claims?
The evidence we hold doesn't establish that these ingredients reliably work for anxiety, asthma, headache, diabetes, or respiratory infections. The clinical evidence for all of them is rated insufficient to say either way.
