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 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: broccoli seed extract in dry form, which supplies concentrated compounds from broccoli seeds. The liquid form includes glycerin and water as inactive ingredients to deliver the extract.

Does it work?

Moderate 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 Broccoli's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Broccoli 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: Colorectal cancer — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for broccoli extract supports its use for colorectal cancer prevention as possibly effective. For bladder cancer, breast cancer, fibromyalgia, and gastric cancer, the evidence we hold is insufficient — meaning we don't yet have reliable data to say whether it works or doesn't.

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.

Broccoli as a food is well tolerated in normal amounts, but concentrated supplements like this extract are less studied. The safety notes advise caution with concentrated extracts unless your doctor approves.

Some people taking broccoli seed or sprout extracts — especially at higher doses — have reported loose stools, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and cramping. Allergic reactions causing contact dermatitis have been reported with topical broccoli, though this is less relevant to a liquid supplement you ingest.

Broccoli Seed Extract, Dry2 drug types · 187 drugs

Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, broccoli might reduce the levels and effects of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
Pharmacokinetic research in humans shows that eating 500 grams of fresh broccoli daily for 6-12 days can increase CYP1A2 activity by 10% to 200%. Induction of CYP1A2 activity by broccoli is attributed to its glucosinolate constituents.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2A6 (Cyp2A6) Substrates

Theoretically, broccoli might reduce the levels and effects of drugs metabolized by CYP2A6.
Pharmacokinetic research in humans shows that eating 500 grams of broccoli daily for 6 days increases CYP2A6 activity by 135% to 550%. Induction of CYP2A6 activity is attributed to its glucosinolate constituents.

Broccoli Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra: Common Questions

Does Broccoli Alcohol Free by Herbal Terra interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Broccoli Alcohol Free has a known interaction with 187 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Broccoli Alcohol Free contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism 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 broccoli extract safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
Broccoli is rated likely safe during pregnancy and lactation. That said, concentrated extracts are less studied than whole broccoli as food, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this supplement is right for you during this time.
What's actually in this liquid?
The active ingredient is broccoli seed extract (dry form). The liquid also contains glycerin and water to carry it.
Can this supplement cause stomach problems?
Yes — some people taking broccoli seed extracts report loose stools, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and cramping, especially at higher doses. If you have a sensitive stomach, start cautiously and mention it to your pharmacist.
Does it really work for cancer prevention?
Broccoli extract is possibly effective for colorectal cancer. For bladder cancer, breast cancer, and gastric cancer, we don't have enough reliable evidence to say whether it works.
Why do I need to check my medications with this?
Broccoli contains compounds that speed up how your liver breaks down certain drugs, which can make those medications less effective. Your pharmacist can search your specific prescriptions to see if this applies to you.
