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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains two active ingredients: stevia leaf extract and vitamin K. Vitamin K is essential for blood clotting and bone health.

Stevia leaf extract is a sweetening agent derived from the stevia plant. The product also contains several inactive ingredients — lactose, calcium phosphate, and acacia gum — which serve as fillers and binders in the tablet.

Does it work?

Strong 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
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Bone health and cardiovascular support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Cardiovascular disease (CVD), Osteoporosis, Warfarin anticoagulation, Vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency (VKCFD), Hemorrhagic disease, Hypoprothrombinemia — and 3 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Vitamin K is rated "Effective" for Hemorrhagic disease (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Vitamin K is rated "Effective" for Hypoprothrombinemia, Warfarin anticoagulation, Vitamin K-dependent clotting factors deficiency (VKCFD).
  • Also on file: Vitamin K is rated "Possibly Effective" for Osteoporosis.

Vitamin K is effective for treating blood clotting disorders, including vitamin K deficiency and the bleeding disease associated with low clotting factors. It's also possibly effective for osteoporosis.

Stevia has insufficient evidence in our data to rate its effectiveness for diabetes control, blood pressure management, or weight loss.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Stevia Vitamin K

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.

Vitamin K taken by mouth is generally well tolerated in most people. The most common side effects are mild — nausea, diarrhea, and stomach upset — and they're rare.

Stevia in purified food amounts is recognized as safe, but high-dose supplements like this one lack robust safety data, so use caution. Minor side effects from stevia (bloating, dizziness, headache, muscle pain, nausea, numbness) may happen but usually resolve within a week.

Rare allergic reactions have been reported. Both ingredients are likely safe in pregnancy, but the stevia entry in our data offers no pregnancy information, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Major.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 261 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 you take this, double-check if you're on warfarin or any blood thinner — vitamin K is a Major concern. Check next if you take blood pressure medications, diabetes medications, or lithium.

Altogether, these interactions span 258 individual medications.

The bottom line

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

If you take warfarin or a blood thinner, you need to check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this — vitamin K directly interferes with those drugs. If you're on blood pressure or diabetes medication, or if you take lithium, run this product through the checker first.

For everyone else with no medications or the ones we've checked, it's generally well tolerated.

Stevia leaf extract3 drug types · 259 drugs

Lithium

Theoretically, stevia might decrease clearance and increase levels of lithium.
Animal research suggests that stevia extracts might have diuretic activity. Theoretically, increased reabsorption of lithium along with sodium might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, stevia might increase the risk for hypoglycemia when combined with antidiabetes drugs.
Preliminary clinical research in patients with type 2 diabetes suggests that taking a single dose of stevia extract 1000 mg reduces postprandial blood glucose levels when taken with a meal. However, other clinical research in patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes suggests that taking stevioside 250 mg three times daily does not significantly affect blood glucose levels or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) after three months of treatment.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, combining stevia or stevia constituents with antihypertensive agents might increase the risk of hypotension.
Stevia extract and stevioside might lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension. However, other clinical research suggests that stevioside does not significantly lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Vitamin K1 drug type · 2 drugs

Warfarin (Coumadin)

Vitamin K can antagonize and reverse the therapeutic effects of warfarin.
Vitamin K antagonizes the effects of warfarin. Excessive vitamin K intake, either from supplements or from changes in the diet, can reduce the anticoagulant effect of warfarin.
