HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Broccoli Extract by BulkSupplements.com

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.

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 is pure broccoli extract — just one active ingredient in powder form. There are no inactive fillers listed.

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 data we hold shows broccoli extract is possibly effective for reducing colorectal cancer risk. For bladder cancer, breast cancer, fibromyalgia, and gastric cancer, the evidence isn't strong enough to rate it one way or another — we simply don't have reliable data to say whether it works for those uses.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Broccoli

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 safe for most people in normal amounts. However, concentrated supplements like this extract are much less studied, and the safety data advises caution — talk with your doctor before taking it unless they've approved it.

At high doses, the extract has been reported to cause loose stools, diarrhea, belly pain, and cramping. Topically, allergic skin reactions (contact dermatitis) to broccoli have been reported.

The safety data on concentrated extracts is not well established, so use caution.

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 — Broccoli.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 187 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.

Before taking this product, check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take any medications broken down by the liver enzymes CYP1A2 or CYP2A6 — particularly cancer drugs, certain antidepressants, and others. The extract may lower their levels and reduce their effectiveness.

Both interactions are rated Moderate.

The bottom line

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

Broccoli extract is possibly effective for colorectal cancer prevention, but it can speed up how your liver clears a large number of medications — potentially making them less effective. If you take any prescription drugs metabolized by your liver, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this supplement.

Stick with your regular broccoli at the dinner table unless your healthcare provider says the extract is right for you.

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 Extract by BulkSupplements.com: Common Questions

Does Broccoli Extract by BulkSupplements.com interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Broccoli Extract 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 Extract 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 while breastfeeding?
The safety data rates broccoli as likely safe during pregnancy and lactation. That said, because concentrated supplements are less studied than whole broccoli, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
What side effects have been reported with this supplement?
At high doses, broccoli extract has caused loose stools, diarrhea, belly pain, and cramping. Topical contact with broccoli can rarely trigger allergic skin reactions. Start with a lower dose and see how your body tolerates it.
Does broccoli extract work for cancer prevention?
The data shows broccoli extract is possibly effective for colorectal cancer. For bladder cancer, breast cancer, gastric cancer, and other conditions, the evidence isn't strong enough yet to say whether it helps — more research is needed.
Why do I need to check my medications with this supplement?
Broccoli extract can speed up how your liver breaks down and clears certain drugs, potentially making them less effective. If you take medications processed by your liver, your doctor or pharmacist should review them with this product before you start.
Is this just regular broccoli in powder form?
This is a concentrated extract of broccoli, not the same as powdered whole broccoli. Because it's more potent, the effects — including the interaction with medications — could be stronger than eating fresh broccoli.
