Hem Healer® Product Side Effects & Safety Information

At Hem Healer®, we prioritize transparency and customer safety. While our products are formulated with high-quality, natural ingredients, it’s essential to be aware of potential side effects. Below is a breakdown of possible reactions for each of our products.

💡 Important Note: Side effects are generally rare and mild, but individual responses may vary. Always consult with your doctor before starting any new supplement, especially if you have pre-existing conditions, are taking medications, or are pregnant or nursing.


Hem Hero® Extra Strength

Key Ingredients: Diosmin, Hesperidin, Horse Chestnut Extract

Potential Side Effects:

Gastrointestinal Issues – Some users may experience mild stomach discomfort, nausea, diarrhea, or indigestion. Taking the supplement with food can help minimize these effects.
✔ Headache or Dizziness – Rare, but some individuals may feel lightheaded, especially when first starting the supplement.
Allergic Reactions – Though uncommon, some people may be sensitive to certain plant-based compounds, leading to rash, itching, or swelling. Discontinue use if this occurs.
✔ Mild Fatigue – A small number of users report feeling more tired than usual. This may be temporary as the body adjusts.
Blood Pressure Effects – Horse Chestnut Extract may lower blood pressure slightly, so individuals on blood pressure medications should monitor their levels closely.

🔹 Who Should Avoid It?

  • Individuals with bleeding disorders or those taking anticoagulants (e.g., Warfarin) should consult a doctor, as some ingredients may affect blood clotting.
  • Those with liver disease should use caution, as Horse Chestnut may impact liver function.

Easy Flow Fiber®

Key Ingredients: Oat Fiber, Cayenne Pepper (in small amounts)

Potential Side Effects:

Increased Bowel Movements – Fiber supplements promote regularity, which may lead to an increase in bowel movements or mild bloating as the body adjusts.
✔ Temporary Gas and Bloating – Oat fiber can cause excess gas in some individuals, especially when first starting.
✔ Mild Stomach Cramps – A common reaction when introducing more fiber to the diet.
Heartburn or Mild Irritation – Cayenne Pepper, though in small amounts, may cause slight irritation in individuals sensitive to spicy foods.

🔹 Who Should Avoid It?

  • People with severe digestive disorders (e.g., IBS, Crohn’s disease) should introduce fiber gradually to assess tolerance.
  • Those with acid reflux or ulcers may experience slight discomfort from the Cayenne Pepper content.
  • Anyone on medications that require timed absorption (like thyroid medication) should take fiber separately to prevent absorption interference.

General Safety Tips for All Hem Healer® Products:

✔ Always Take with Food – This helps reduce the likelihood of nausea and digestive discomfort.
✔ Drink Plenty of Water – Staying hydrated supports digestion and prevents bloating with fiber supplements.
✔ Start with a Lower Dose if Sensitive – If you’re prone to side effects, begin with half the recommended dose and gradually increase.
✔ Monitor for Allergies – If you experience itching, swelling, or difficulty breathing, discontinue use and seek medical attention immediately.
Consult a Doctor if You Have Underlying Conditions – Particularly if you take medications for blood pressure, blood clotting, liver function, or digestive health.
