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.

Vital Test contains 4 active ingredients. The product includes DIM (diindolylmethane), a compound derived from cruciferous vegetables; Gymnema sylvestre, an herbal extract traditionally used in traditional medicine; White Button Mushroom Extract; and DAA (D-aspartic acid).

The product also contains inactive ingredients—rice flour, magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide—which serve as fillers and binders in the capsule.

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: increase natural testosterone production and muscle.
  • We looked for evidence on: Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), Prostate cancer, testosterone deficiency, hypogonadism, muscle wasting, athletic performance.
  • The closest evidence on file: Diindolylmethane is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Diindolylmethane is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Prostate cancer.

The evidence for DIM is not yet established in our data for benign prostate enlargement, breast cancer, colorectal cancer, cervical dysplasia, or breast pain (mastalgia)—all are rated insufficient reliable evidence to rate. Similarly, Gymnema's effectiveness for diabetes, obesity, prediabetes, and metabolic syndrome shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate in our database.

We hold no effectiveness data for White Button Mushroom Extract or DAA.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Diindolylmethane Gymnema

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.

DIM is generally well tolerated short-term, though long-term safety isn't well established. Common side effects include diarrhea, gas, headache, nausea, rash, and vomiting.

A rare serious reaction called DRESS (drug rash with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms) has been reported. Gymnema is generally well tolerated in short-term use but can lower blood sugar; quality varies between products.

One case of hepatitis has been reported in a patient who consumed gymnema tea heavily. DIM is rated likely safe in pregnancy, but Gymnema has insufficient safety data and should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Diindolylmethane Gymnema

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?
  • 2 of the 2 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Gymnema, Diindolylmethane.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 920 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 Vital Test, double-check these medication types with your pharmacist: estrogen-containing drugs or hormone replacement therapy (Moderate risk from DIM), diabetes medications (Moderate risk from Gymnema—risk of low blood sugar), and drugs metabolized by CYP1A2, CYP2C9, and CYP3A4 enzymes (Moderate to Minor risk from both ingredients). Additionally, phenacetin and tolbutamide require specific attention if you take them.

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.

Vital Test may be worth considering if you're interested in its ingredients, but the evidence for what it does is not yet established. If you take estrogen-containing medications, diabetes drugs, or medications processed by your liver (CYP1A2, CYP2C9, or CYP3A4), talk with your pharmacist before starting—this product could affect how those drugs work.

Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should check with their doctor or pharmacist first.

For each ingredient in Vital Test 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.

Gymnema sylvestre6 drug types · 851 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, taking gymnema with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Gymnema reduces blood glucose levels in some human and animal research. In human studies, it has been shown to enhance the blood glucose lowering effects of hypoglycemic drugs. However, other research in adults with prediabetes or metabolic syndrome suggests that gymnema does not reduce fasting levels of blood glucose. Until more is known, monitor blood glucose levels closely.

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

Theoretically, gymnema might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
Animal and in vitro research shows that gymnema can inhibit the CYP1A2 enzyme. In one animal study, oral administration of gymnema for 7 days increased the plasma concentrations of phenacetin, a CYP1A2 substrate, by about 1.4-fold and reduced the clearance of phenacetin by about 29%.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, gymnema might increase or decrease levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.
Animal research shows that gymnema can induce the CYP2C9 enzyme. In one animal study, gymnema caused a 2.4-fold increase in the clearance of tolbutamide, a CYP2C9 substrate, in rats. In vitro research also shows that gymnema can inhibit CYP2C9.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenacetin

Theoretically, taking gymnema with phenacetin might increase the levels of phenacetin.
Animal research shows that gymnema, administered orally for 7 days, decreases the clearance of phenacetin in a dose-dependent manner by about 21% to 29% and increases plasma levels about 1.3- to 1.4-fold when compared to control.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Tolbutamide (Orinase)

Theoretically, taking gymnema with tolbutamide might the decrease levels of tolbutamide.
Animal research shows that gymnema, administered orally for 7 days, increases the clearance of tolbutamide by 2.4-fold when compared to control.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, gymnema might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
One in vitro study using rat liver microsomes shows that gymnema can modestly inhibit the CYP3A4 enzyme. However, other in vitro research using human liver microsomes shows that gymnema does not affect CYP3A4 activity. Animal research also shows that gymnema does not alter the function of CYP3A4. In one study in rats, oral administration of gymnema for 7 days did not alter the clearance of amlodipine, a CYP3A4 substrate.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Gymnema sylvestre full monograph & interactions

DIM3 drug types · 269 drugs

Diuretic Drugs

Theoretically, diindolylmethane might increase the risk of hyponatremia if used with sodium-depleting diuretics.
Large doses of diindolylmethane (600 mg daily) have been associated with two cases of asymptomatic hyponatremia in clinical research.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Estrogens

Theoretically, diindolylmethane might increase or decrease the effects of estrogens.
Diindolylmethane might have mild estrogenic or antiestrogenic effects. Theoretically, large amounts of diindolylmethane might interfere with hormone replacement therapy.

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

Theoretically, diindolylmethane might lower serum levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro evidence suggests that diindolylmethane can induce CYP1A2. Theoretically, it might increase metabolism of CYP1A2 substrates and lower serum concentrations. This interaction has not been reported in humans.
