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, at 1000 mg per capsule. It also includes inactive ingredients — microcrystalline cellulose, silicon dioxide, and magnesium stearate — which are the capsule and common fillers.

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 is possibly effective for colorectal cancer. For bladder cancer, breast cancer, fibromyalgia, and gastric cancer, the evidence isn't established enough to rate.

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 well tolerated in normal amounts. The safety data on concentrated sprout supplements, however, is less certain.

The facts note that concentrated extracts should be avoided unless your doctor approves. At high doses, broccoli sprout extracts have caused loose stools, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and cramping.

Allergic contact reactions are also possible if broccoli touches your skin.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Broccoli

Meds to double-check

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 — 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.

Check any medications broken down by your liver, especially those processed by CYP2A6 (Moderate severity) or CYP1A2 (Moderate severity) enzymes. Broccoli can speed up how your body clears these drugs, potentially lowering their effect.

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.

This product may interest people looking for colorectal cancer support, though evidence is modest. Anyone taking medications should check their exact drugs first, especially if they're metabolized by the liver.

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 Sprout 1000 mg by Biotech Nutritions: Common Questions

Does Broccoli Sprout 1000 mg by Biotech Nutritions interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Broccoli Sprout 1000 mg 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 Sprout 1000 mg 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 this safe to take if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
The safety data rates broccoli as likely safe in pregnancy and lactation. That said, the safety of concentrated sprout supplements is less studied than whole broccoli food. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist for personalized advice.
Will this cause stomach upset?
At high doses, broccoli sprout extracts have been reported to cause loose stools, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and cramping. Start with a lower dose if you're new to it and see how your body responds.
Does broccoli actually work for cancer?
For colorectal cancer, the evidence rates as possibly effective. For bladder, breast, and gastric cancers, the evidence we have isn't strong enough to say either way. It's not a replacement for medical treatment — talk to your oncologist.
Is this just whole broccoli in a capsule?
Yes, this is broccoli, but it's concentrated into a supplement form rather than fresh whole food. The safety data for concentrated extracts is less established than for eating broccoli as a food, which is why the facts recommend doctor approval before use.
Can I be allergic to this?
Allergic reactions to broccoli are possible. Topical contact can cause contact dermatitis; oral reactions at high doses may include stomach cramping and diarrhea. If you've had reactions to cruciferous vegetables before, mention it to your pharmacist.
