HelloPharmacist Scorecard of 10 Vegetable Multi-Plex by Nutrition Warehouse

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

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 has 2 active ingredients: freeze-dried vegetable concentrate and copper. The vegetable concentrate is a concentrated powder made from whole vegetables; we don't have specific breakdown data on which ones.

Copper is an essential mineral your body needs in small amounts for various functions, including nerve and immune health. The product also contains vegetable cellulose and dicalcium phosphate as inactive ingredients (binders and fillers).

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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Copper's overall clinical evidence instead.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports Copper for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Copper deficiency — rated "Likely Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Copper is likely effective for treating copper deficiency, which is rare but can happen with certain conditions or medications. For other uses — including Alzheimer's disease, acne, chemotherapy-related anemia, and brain tumors — the evidence we hold is either insufficient to rate or suggests it's possibly ineffective (in the case of Alzheimer's).

We have no effectiveness data on file for the freeze-dried vegetable concentrate.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Copper

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 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Copper in food and standard supplement amounts is safe, but excess copper can build up and become toxic. The safety data advises caution with high-dose copper supplements — stick to recommended amounts unless a doctor tells you otherwise.

A very small number of people have reported contact dermatitis (skin rashes) from copper, usually from direct contact with copper-containing materials. Observational studies show that people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes tend to have higher blood copper levels than those without diabetes, though it's unclear whether elevated copper contributes to diabetes development or worsening.

During pregnancy, copper is needed, but stay within recommended amounts and avoid high-dose supplements without medical guidance. Recommended amounts are considered acceptable during lactation.

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?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Copper.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 31 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.

Penicillamine (Cuprimine, Depen) — a Moderate interaction requiring at least 2 hours between doses. Birth control pills — a Minor interaction that may raise copper levels.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Copper2 drug types · 31 drugs

Penicillamine (Cuprimine, Depen)

Theoretically, taking copper with penicillamine might decrease the absorption of penicillamine; separate dosing by at least 2 hours.
Copper chelates penicillamine, which decreases its absorption and may reduce its clinical effects.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Contraceptive Drugs

Theoretically, taking copper with contraceptive drugs might increase the levels and toxic effects of copper.
A meta-analysis of clinical studies suggests that chronic use of oral contraceptives increases serum copper levels by a mean of 57 mcg/dL. In most people, this resulted in levels above the normal reference range for copper.

Does 10 Vegetable Multi-Plex by Nutrition Warehouse interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, 10 Vegetable Multi-Plex has a known interaction with 31 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
10 Vegetable Multi-Plex contains 2 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is copper safe during pregnancy?
Copper is needed during pregnancy and recommended amounts are considered likely safe. The safety data does flag a possibly unsafe concern, so stay within recommended amounts and avoid high-dose supplements unless your doctor advises it. Talk with your pharmacist or doctor about what's right for you.
Can I take this if I'm breastfeeding?
Recommended amounts of copper are considered likely safe while breastfeeding. As always, check with your pharmacist or doctor about whether this product's copper dose fits your situation.
What does copper actually do in my body?
Copper is an essential mineral — your body uses it for nerve function, immune health, and other processes. It's found naturally in foods like nuts, seeds, shellfish, and whole grains, so most people get some from diet alone.
Does the vegetable concentrate in this product have any proven benefits?
We don't have effectiveness data on file for the freeze-dried vegetable concentrate in this product. Its role is mainly as a source of phytochemicals and nutrients from vegetables, but we can't claim specific health benefits based on our data.
What side effects should I watch for?
Contact dermatitis (itchy, inflamed skin) from copper is very rare and usually follows direct skin contact with copper materials. Observational studies link higher copper levels to diabetes, but it's not clear whether elevated copper causes or worsens it. If you have concerns, talk to your pharmacist.
