Nopalea
I’ve been asked this question several time: “Are there any side effects and/or any known conflicts with prescription medication?”
Not being a healthcare professional, or a medical doctor, I cannot answer that question. However, from my research, I have yet to find a person suffering any side effects from drinking Sonoran Bloom Nopalea. I have also found that since Nopalea is an all natural product, there are no currently known side effects, on its own, and/or with prescription drugs.
DISCLAIMER: I an NOT a medical doctor or healthcare professional, nor to I portray myself as such. ALWAYS check with your family doctor or healthcare professional before taking any nutritional supplement.
In a recent TriVita Weekly Wellness Report newsletter, Brazos Minshew, TriVita’s Chief Science Officer, answered the question, “Is it safe to take Nopalea with my medications?” this way:
“There are no known conflicts between Nopalea and medications. Nopalea contains natural ingredients and its main ingredient is derived from the fruit of the Nopal cactus (Opuntia ficus indica) from the Sonora Desert. It is low calorie and low carbohydrate, so it must be calculated as any other food in your total dietary intake of these macronutrients.”
“Some of the older blood thinners are more easily adjusted if a person is not eating vegetables or fruit or drinking juices during the ‘calibration’ phase. Your doctor or pharmacist will give you specific instructions if this pertains to you.”
“Always ask your health care team if you are in doubt or have questions. However, TriVita’s Medical Advisory Board has examined Nopalea closely. In general, there are no known conflicts between Nopalea and medications.”

There have been “no known” side-effects from drinking Nopalea, since it is an all natural product. However, it’s always best to check with your medical professional, or doctor. With regards to usage: After the loading phase (3-6 oz. per day until results have been achieved) has been completed, it all depends on your condition, and your body as to the recommended daily usage. For example, some people will take 1 oz. per day and some may take 3-6 ounces per day.
