HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vegan True Vegantein Complete by Source Naturals

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

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 4 of its 4 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Vegan True Vegantein Complete contains 4 active ingredients: sodium, pea seed protein concentrate, brown rice protein concentrate, and white rice protein concentrate. The three protein sources are plant-based options designed to provide amino acids — pea and brown rice are the ones we have data on.

The product has no inactive ingredients listed. This is a protein powder, so you're getting a blend of plant proteins plus a modest amount of dietary sodium from the formula.

Does it work?

Insufficient 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
Insufficient

There isn't enough reliable clinical evidence to rate this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: complete vegan protein for muscle and heart health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Exercise-induced muscle damage, Exercise-induced muscle soreness, Muscle strength, Obesity, Congestive heart failure, Hyperlipidemia — and 4 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Sodium is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Congestive heart failure (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Pea Protein is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Diabetes, Exercise-induced muscle soreness, Hyperlipidemia, Muscle strength, and more.

For the protein ingredients in this product, the evidence isn't established. Pea protein and brown rice protein both show insufficient evidence for diabetes, muscle soreness, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and other conditions listed.

Brown rice protein is possibly effective for food allergies — one of the few rated uses we have data on. The other ingredients' effectiveness for weight gain, muscle building, or general nutrition isn't addressed in our data.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Sodium Pea Protein Rice Protein

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 3 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.

Pea protein and brown rice protein are generally well tolerated as foods and concentrate supplements by most healthy adults. A small number of people with existing food allergies (especially to peanuts, tree nuts, or legumes) have had allergic reactions including anaphylaxis to pea protein, so if you have a known food allergy history, ask your pharmacist before using this product.

Sodium is essential in small amounts, but too much is linked to high blood pressure and heart strain. The amount in this product is moderate, but if you're watching your sodium intake — especially if you have high blood pressure, heart disease, or kidney disease — you should be cautious.

Normal dietary sodium is fine, but avoid sodium supplements or very high intake without medical advice. Pregnancy and breastfeeding data for the protein concentrates isn't established; there isn't enough information to know if they're safe, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.

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?
  • 2 of the 3 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Sodium, Rice Protein.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: lithium.
  • For scale: 205 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 before you start if you take blood pressure medications (ACE inhibitors or other antihypertensives) — sodium may reduce their effectiveness. Also double-check if you're on lithium, corticosteroids, didanosine (Videx), sodium phosphate bowel-prep solutions, tolvaptan (Samsca), or any other sodium-containing drugs.

We could not check white rice protein for interactions.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with insufficient evidence for its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This is a plant-based protein powder that works well for most people without food allergies. The main caution is sodium — if you take blood pressure medication, lithium, or corticosteroids, check your medications with the tool on this page first.

Pregnant or breastfeeding? Ask your pharmacist before you start.

For general muscle support and protein intake in healthy adults without those concerns, it's a straightforward option.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Vegan True Vegantein Complete 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

Brown Rice Protein concentrate1 drug type · 23 drugs

Ace Inhibitors (Aceis)

In laboratory research, hydrolyzed rice protein inhibits angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). In animal research, the inhibition of ACE is correlated with a reduction in systolic blood pressure. So far, this effect has not been shown in humans. Theoretically, concomitant use of rice protein and ACE inhibitors may increase the risk of blood pressure becoming too low. Use with caution. ACE inhibitors include benazepril (Lotensin), captopril (Capoten), enalapril (Vasotec), fosinopril (Monopril), lisinopril (Prinivil, Zestril), moexipril (Univasc), perindopril (Aceon), quinapril (Accupril), ramipril (Altace), and trandolapril (Mavik).

Vegan True Vegantein Complete by Source Naturals: Common Questions

Does Vegan True Vegantein Complete by Source Naturals interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Vegan True Vegantein Complete has a known interaction with 205 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Vegan True Vegantein Complete 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.
Will this help me build muscle?
The evidence for pea protein and brown rice protein on muscle strength and exercise-induced soreness isn't established in our data, so we can't say whether this product will help you build muscle or recover faster after exercise.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant?
The concentrated protein supplements in this powder haven't been well studied in pregnancy, so there isn't enough data to know if they're safe. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Is this safe if I have a food allergy?
It depends on your allergy. A small number of people with peanut, tree nut, or legume allergies have had serious allergic reactions (including anaphylaxis) to pea protein. If you have a known food allergy history, ask your pharmacist or doctor before using this product.
How much sodium is in each serving?
That information isn't in our data — check the nutrition label on the package for the exact sodium amount per serving.
Is pea protein a complete protein?
Our data doesn't cover whether pea protein has all the amino acids your body needs — check the product label or ask your pharmacist for details on amino acid profile.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
The concentrated protein supplements haven't been specifically studied during breastfeeding, so there isn't enough data to know if they're safe. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
