HelloPharmacist Scorecard of BROQ by Superhuman Health

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

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Oct 1, 2026

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.

BROQ contains one active ingredient: sulforaphane, a compound found naturally in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and Brussels sprouts. The capsules also hold inactive ingredients — maltodextrin, cellulose, acacia gum, magnesium stearate, and copper chlorophyllin — which serve as fillers and binders to hold the capsule together.

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 Sulforaphane's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

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

The evidence for sulforaphane is mixed. It's rated possibly effective for prostate cancer, meaning there's some promise but more research is needed.

For hay fever (allergic rhinitis) and asthma, the evidence isn't established enough to say either way. For cancer overall and for H. pylori infection, we either don't have enough reliable data or the evidence leans toward it not working.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Sulforaphane

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.

Sulforaphane from food is well tolerated, but concentrated supplements like this one are less studied for long-term use, so caution is warranted. The most common side effects reported are bowel discomfort, heartburn, stomach upset, and vomiting.

A small number of trial participants have also reported headache, insomnia, irritability, and increased weight gain — one study showed an average gain of 4 pounds over 18 weeks. There are also rare reports of seizures in males with autism, including in patients whose seizures had previously been well controlled.

Concentrated supplements have not been proven safe in pregnancy, so you should avoid them and stick to sulforaphane from normal food amounts instead. There isn't enough information on supplement-level doses while breastfeeding — use caution and prefer dietary amounts.

If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a personal or family history of seizures, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product.

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 — Sulforaphane.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 723 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 you take BROQ, double-check any medications you're on that are broken down by the CYP3A4, CYP1A2, or CYP2E1 enzymes in your liver — sulforaphane may change how well they work. Your doctor or pharmacist can tell you if any of your prescriptions fall into these groups.

These interactions have not been studied in humans, but the potential exists based on lab research.

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.

BROQ may be worth considering if you're interested in prostate health support, though the evidence is still preliminary. However, because sulforaphane may alter how your body processes many common medications, you need to check your prescriptions against the interaction tool before you start.

If you have a history of seizures, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or experience any stomach upset, talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist first.

Sulforaphane3 drug types · 722 drugs

Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, sulforaphane might alter the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
Animal and in vitro research shows that sulforaphane inhibits CYP1A2 enzyme activity. However, its precursor glucoraphanin also appears to increase the expression of the CYP1A2 enzyme, which could lead to increased metabolism of CYP1A2 substrates. These effects have not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2E1 (Cyp2E1) Substrates

Theoretically, sulforaphane might increase the levels and effects of CYP2E1 substrates.
In vitro evidence shows that sulforaphane inhibits CYP2E1 enzymes. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, sulforaphane might increase the levels and effects of CYP3A4 substrates.
Animal and in vitro research shows that sulforaphane inhibits CYP3A4 enzyme activity and downregulates its expression. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

BROQ by Superhuman Health: Common Questions

Does BROQ by Superhuman Health interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, BROQ has a known interaction with 722 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
BROQ 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.
What is sulforaphane and where does it come from?
Sulforaphane is a compound naturally found in cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and Brussels sprouts. BROQ provides it in a concentrated supplement form. Food amounts are considered safe, but long-term use of concentrated supplements is less well studied.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Concentrated supplements like this have not been proven safe in pregnancy, so you should avoid them and get your sulforaphane from food instead. For breastfeeding, there isn't enough data on supplement-level doses — talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether dietary amounts or waiting is the better choice for you.
Does this supplement actually work?
The evidence is mixed. Sulforaphane is rated possibly effective for prostate cancer, meaning there's some promise but more study is needed. For hay fever, asthma, and cancer in general, we don't have enough reliable evidence to say whether it works.
What side effects should I watch for?
Most commonly, bowel discomfort, heartburn, stomach upset, and vomiting. Less often, headache, insomnia, irritability, and weight gain have been reported. There are also rare reports of seizures, particularly in males with autism — if you or a close relative has a seizure history, check with your doctor first.
Why do I need to check my medications before taking this?
Sulforaphane can potentially alter how your liver breaks down many common drugs, which might make those drugs stronger or weaker than intended. The interaction hasn't been proven in humans yet, but the risk is real enough that your doctor or pharmacist needs to review your specific prescriptions.
