Higher intake can cause hypertension (100310). Also, both the highest and the lowest pre-pregnancy sodium quintile intakes are associated with an increased risk of hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, including gestational hypertension and pre-eclampsia, and the delivery of small for gestational age (SGA) infants when compared to the middle intake quintile (106264).
Below is general information about the interactions of the known ingredients contained in the product Coconut Mango Fruit & Nut Bar. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
Theoretically, taking coconut with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Details
Animal research suggests that coconut milk might increase insulin levels and/or decrease blood glucose levels (107671).
|
Theoretically, a high intake of dietary sodium might reduce the effectiveness of antihypertensive drugs.
Details
|
Concomitant use of mineralocorticoids and some glucocorticoids with sodium supplements might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Details
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 (4425).
|
Altering dietary intake of sodium might alter the levels and clinical effects of lithium.
Details
High sodium intake can reduce plasma concentrations of lithium by increasing lithium excretion (26225). Reducing sodium intake can significantly increase plasma concentrations of lithium and cause lithium toxicity in patients being treated with lithium carbonate (26224,26225). Stabilizing sodium intake is shown to reduce the percentage of patients with lithium level fluctuations above 0.8 mEq/L (112909). Patients taking lithium should avoid significant alterations in their dietary intake of sodium.
|
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.
Details
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 (100310). 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.
|
Theoretically, concomitant use of tolvaptan with sodium might increase the risk of hypernatremia.
Details
Tolvaptan is a vasopressin receptor 2 antagonist that is used to increase sodium levels in patients with hyponatremia (29406). Patients taking tolvaptan should use caution with the use of sodium salts such as sodium chloride.

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product Coconut Mango Fruit & Nut Bar. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
General ...Orally, brown rice is well tolerated when consumed as a food. No adverse effects have been reported when used in medicinal amounts; however, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
General
...Orally and topically, chia seems to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Flatulence and soft stools.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Anaphylaxis in sensitive individuals.
Cardiovascular ...Chia contains a high concentration of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). There is some concern that ALA might increase triglyceride levels more than other omega-3 fatty acids (12918); however, clinical research with a specific variety of chia called Salba shows that it does not significantly increase triglyceride levels (16124).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, chia might cause mild gastrointestinal adverse effects. Some patients consuming chia 40 grams daily for up to 6 months reported mild and transient gastrointestinal adverse effects such as flatulence and soft stools; however, the frequency of these adverse effects was similar to patients consuming an oat bran control (97940). Bloating and flatulence have been reported with a chia flour-based sports beverage (112385).
Immunologic ...Orally, chia might cause anaphylaxis in sensitive individuals. A single case of IgE-mediated anaphylactic reaction has been reported for a patient who consumed chia seeds. Symptoms, including pruritus in the mouth, urticaria, facial angioedema, shortness of breath, and dizziness, developed a few days after consuming chia seeds. The reaction was attributed to sensitivity to proteins in chia seeds (91517).
Oncologic ...Chia seeds contain a high concentration of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA). Epidemiologic research suggests that high dietary intake of ALA might increase risk for prostate cancer (1337,2558,7823,7147,12978). Other research suggests high intake or serum levels of ALA does not increase the overall risk of prostate cancer (12961,15736); however, it might increase the risk of advanced prostate cancer (12961). Association with prostate cancer appears to depend on the sources of ALA. Dairy and meat sources have been positively associated with prostate cancer, whereas plant sources, such as chia seed, don't seem to affect prostate cancer risk (12909). According to a clinical trial, intake of ALA does not appear to increase levels of prostate specific antigen (PSA) (91402).
General
...Orally, coconut is generally well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally and topically: Allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis and hives.
Dermatologic ...Orally or topically, coconut and coconut palm pollen may cause allergic skin reactions such as urticaria and hives (12359,26561,26572,95806).
Immunologic ...Although coconut is a stone fruit, in the US, coconut is grouped with tree nuts for allergen declaration purposes (107673). Orally or topically, coconut can cause allergic reactions ranging from hives to anaphylaxis in those with hypersensitivity to coconut or its pollen (12359,26561,95806,95807,95808,107673,107674). Based on a review of hospital records in the US, most reactions to coconut are due to oral exposure, including through breastfeeding, with about 50% of reactions associated with anaphylaxis (107673). In addition, there have been numerous case reports of anaphylaxis from coconut in the literature, with most cases presenting in infancy or early childhood (95808,107674). In one case report, a 12-year-old child with asthma and allergic rhinitis experienced anaphylaxis with difficulty breathing, wheezing and vomiting, from eating a piece of coconut for the first time (95808). In another case report, a 6-year-old child who had previously had urticaria and hives from applying coconut oil experienced throat swelling and anaphylaxis after eating food containing coconut (95806). Coconut may also play a role in cross-sensitization. In a case report, a 17-year-old male who experienced prickling in the mouth after ingesting coconut soon after experienced an anaphylactic reaction to buckwheat. The child was found to be sensitized to both coconut and buckwheat (95807).
General
...Orally, rectally, and topically, glycerol seems to be well tolerated.
Intravenously, glycerol may be unsafe.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Bloating, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, and headache.
Topically: Burning, irritation, and pruritus.
Intravenously: Hemolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke.
Dermatologic ...Topically, glycerol has been reported to cause burning, irritation, and pruritus (93754,93756). Rectally, the regular administration of glycerol 50% enemas has been reported to cause generalized urticaria in at least two patients; in both patients, symptoms resolved after discontinuation (110019,110025).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, glycerol can cause bloating, nausea, vomiting, thirst, and diarrhea (15,2475).
Hematologic ...Intravenously, glycerol has been reported to caused hemolysis in people treated for acute ischemic stroke (2480,2482).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, glycerol can cause mild headache and dizziness (15,2475).
General
...Orally, olive fruit is well tolerated when used in typical food amounts.
Olive leaf extract seems to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Headache and stomach discomfort.
Dermatologic ...Orally, one patient in one clinical trial reported bad skin and acne after using olive leaf extract (101860).
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, three patients in one clinical trial reported stomach ache after using olive leaf extract (101860).
Neurologic/CNS ...Orally, three patients in one clinical trial reported headache after using olive leaf extract (101860).
Psychiatric ...In one case report, a 67-year-old female experienced irritability, anger, a lack of control, and feelings of sadness and negativity after consuming a multi-ingredient product containing olive leaf extract 5 grams, horseradish root, and eyebright daily for 38 days. All psychiatric symptoms disappeared within days of stopping the combined product. It is hypothesized that the hydroxytyrosol component of olive leaf extract contributed to these symptoms due to its chemical similarity to dopamine; however, it is not clear if these symptoms were due to the olive leaf extract or to the other ingredients (96245).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Olive tree pollen can cause seasonal respiratory allergy (1543).
General ...Orally, quinoa seems to be well-tolerated. Rarely, quinoa can cause allergic reaction in some individuals, including anaphylaxis (99150,99151,96062).
Immunologic ...Orally, allergic reactions to quinoa have been reported (99150,96062). Anaphylaxis and pruritic reactions have occurred in at least two individuals, a 29-year-old female and a 52-year-old male. Quinoa allergy was confirmed in both patients via skin-prick testing with quinoa extract (99150,99151).
General
...Orally, sodium is well tolerated when used in moderation at intakes up to the Chronic Disease Risk Reduction (CDRR) intake level.
Topically, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Worsened cardiovascular disease, hypertension, kidney disease.
Cardiovascular
...Orally, intake of sodium above the CDRR intake level can exacerbate hypertension and hypertension-related cardiovascular disease (CVD) (26229,98176,100310,106263).
A meta-analysis of observational research has found a linear association between increased sodium intake and increased hypertension risk (109398). Observational research has also found an association between increased sodium salt intake and increased risk of CVD, mortality, and cardiovascular mortality (98177,98178,98181,98183,98184,109395,109396,109399). However, the existing research is unable to confirm a causal relationship between sodium intake and increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality; high-quality, prospective research is needed to clarify this relationship (100312). As there is no known benefit with increased salt intake that would outweigh the potential increased risk of CVD, advise patients to limit salt intake to no more than the CDRR intake level (100310).
A reduction in sodium intake can lower systolic blood pressure by a small amount in most individuals, and diastolic blood pressure in patients with hypertension (100310,100311,106261). However, post hoc analysis of a small crossover clinical study in White patients suggests that 24-hour blood pressure variability is not affected by high-salt intake compared with low-salt intake (112910). Additionally, the available research is insufficient to confirm that a further reduction in sodium intake below the CDRR intake level will lower the risk for chronic disease (100310,100311). A meta-analysis of clinical research shows that reducing sodium intake increases levels of total cholesterol and triglycerides, but not low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, by a small amount (106261).
It is unclear whether there are safety concerns when sodium is consumed in amounts lower than the adequate intake (AI) levels. Some observational research has found that the lowest levels of sodium intake might be associated with increased risk of death and cardiovascular events (98181,98183). However, this finding has been criticized because some of the studies used inaccurate measures of sodium intake, such as the Kawasaki formula (98177,98178,101259). Some observational research has found that sodium intake based on a single 24-hour urinary measurement is inversely correlated with all-cause mortality (106260). The National Academies Consensus Study Report states that there is insufficient evidence from observational studies to conclude that there are harmful effects from low sodium intake (100310).
Endocrine ...Orally, a meta-analysis of observational research has found that higher sodium intake is associated with an average increase in body mass index (BMI) of 1. 24 kg/m2 and an approximate 5 cm increase in waist circumference (98182). It has been hypothesized that the increase in BMI is related to an increased thirst, resulting in an increased intake of sugary beverages and/or consumption of foods that are high in salt and also high in fat and energy (98182). One large observational study has found that the highest sodium intake is not associated with overweight or obesity when compared to the lowest intake in adolescents aged 12-19 years when intake of energy and sugar-sweetened beverages are considered (106265). However, in children aged 6-11 years, usual sodium intake is positively associated with increased weight and central obesity independently of the intake of energy and/or sugar-sweetened beverages (106265).
Gastrointestinal ...In one case report, severe gastritis and a deep antral ulcer occurred in a patient who consumed 16 grams of sodium chloride in one sitting (25759). Chronic use of high to moderately high amounts of sodium chloride has been associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer (29405).
Musculoskeletal
...Observational research has found that low sodium levels can increase the risk for osteoporosis.
One study has found that low plasma sodium levels are associated with an increased risk for osteoporosis. Low levels, which are typically caused by certain disease states or chronic medications, are associated with a more than 2-fold increased odds for osteoporosis and bone fractures (101260).
Conversely, in healthy males on forced bed rest, a high intake of sodium chloride (7.7 mEq/kg daily) seems to exacerbate disuse-induced bone and muscle loss (25760,25761).
Oncologic ...Population research has found that high or moderately high intake of sodium chloride is associated with an increased risk of gastric cancer when compared with low sodium chloride intake (29405). Other population research in patients with gastric cancer has found that a high intake of sodium is associated with an approximate 65% increased risk of gastric cancer mortality when compared with a low intake. When zinc intake is taken into consideration, the increased risk of mortality only occurred in those with low zinc intake, but the risk was increased to approximately 2-fold in this sub-population (109400).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...In patients with hypertension, population research has found that sodium excretion is modestly and positively associated with having moderate or severe obstructive sleep apnea. This association was not found in normotensive patients (106262).
Renal ...Increased sodium intake has been associated with impaired kidney function in healthy adults. This effect seems to be independent of blood pressure. Observational research has found that a high salt intake over approximately 5 years is associated with a 29% increased risk of developing impaired kidney function when compared with a lower salt intake. In this study, high salt intake was about 2-fold higher than low salt intake (101261).
