HelloPharmacist Scorecard of GTF Chromium by MegaFood
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
Low disclosure
This tablet contains 7 ingredients total: organic broccoli, organic parsley, organic beet, organic carrot, S. cerevisiae (brewer's yeast), chromium, and a nourishing food blend. The active ingredients work to provide chromium — a mineral that helps with blood sugar regulation — alongside whole-food sources.
The inactive ingredients are cellulose, silica, and stearic acid.
Does it work?
Moderate evidence
Chromium itself is likely effective for chromium deficiency and possibly effective for type 2 diabetes. Broccoli is possibly effective for colorectal cancer but has insufficient evidence for other cancers and fibromyalgia.
Beet is possibly effective for athletic performance and exercise-induced muscle soreness, but possibly ineffective for COPD. Brewer's yeast is possibly effective for irritable bowel syndrome.
Carrot is possibly effective for vitamin A deficiency. The evidence for parsley across urinary tract infections, melasma, osteoarthritis, and skin cancer is insufficient to rate.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Broccoli, beet, and carrot are generally well tolerated as foods; concentrated supplements lack robust safety data. Brewer's yeast is generally well tolerated short-term but can cause flatulence, migraine, and rarely serious effects like anaphylaxis in sensitive individuals or fungemia in people with weakened immunity.
Chromium is usually well tolerated at typical doses but at high or long-term doses may cause gastrointestinal irritation, headaches, insomnia, mood changes, and rarely kidney or liver damage. Parsley as a food is fine, but concentrated extracts and seeds should be avoided in large amounts — very high doses (200 grams of parsley oil or 10+ grams of its toxic constituents) can cause hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and kidney or liver damage.
Parsley should not be used in medicinal or concentrated amounts during pregnancy, as it may stimulate the uterus.
Meds to double-check
Major interaction found
Check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this if you use monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) — this is Major-severity. Also double-check if you take diabetes medications, insulin, thyroid medication (levothyroxine), blood thinners (anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs like warfarin), water pills (diuretics), the sedative pentobarbital, the transplant drug sirolimus, or NSAIDs or aspirin.
Use the medication checker on this page for your exact drugs.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence for its stated purpose. Major medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product brings together whole-food sources of chromium and other minerals aimed at blood sugar support. It's worth considering if you're looking for chromium and don't have blood sugar issues, thyroid medication, or take an MAOI.
If you take diabetes drugs, insulin, a thyroid medication, blood thinners, or any older antidepressants, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — the interactions are real and may need dosage adjustments or timing changes.

GTF Chromium by MegaFood Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
MegaFood GTF Chromium interacts with medications through its broccoli, parsley, beet, S. cerevisiae (brewer's yeast), and chromium content.
The most serious interaction is between brewer's yeast and monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) — a class of older antidepressants — where the tyramine in brewer's yeast can trigger a dangerous spike in blood pressure (hypertensive crisis).
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Parsley poses Moderate-severity interactions with blood thinners (anticoagulants and antiplatelet drugs), diabetes medications, water pills (diuretics), warfarin specifically, the sedative pentobarbital, and the transplant medication sirolimus. Broccoli and beet each theoretically affect how your liver processes certain drug classes — broccoli speeds up breakdown of some medications, while beet may slow it.
Chromium interacts with diabetes drugs and insulin (raising the risk of low blood sugar), levothyroxine (thyroid medication), and to a minor degree with aspirin and NSAIDs.
Parsley also carries a Minor interaction with aspirin in people with a known parsley allergy. Altogether, these interactions span 1,095 individual medications.

For each ingredient in GTF Chromium with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
organic Beet
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates
Theoretically, beet might increase the levels of CYP3A4 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that betanin, the major pigment in beet, competitively inhibits CYP3A4 in a dose-dependent manner similarly to strong CYP3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Beet and beetroot contain nitrates, which can cause vasodilation, potentially leading to lower blood pressure. However, a study published in the European Journal of Clinical Nutrition using concentrated beetroot juice found no significant impact on blood pressure or heart rate in different age groups. Other small clinical studies suggest that while beet consumption might transiently lower blood pressure due to vessel dilation, there's no consistent evidence of a lasting effect. Overall, the theoretical risk of reduced blood pressure due to beet's nitrate content exists, but studies generally indicate a low and temporary impact rather than a sustained decrease.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, beet might decrease the levels and clinical effects of CYP1A2 substrates.
In vitro research suggests that beet induces CYP1A2 enzymes.
organic Parsley
Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs
Theoretically, parsley might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Animal research suggests that parsley has antiplatelet effects.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, parsley might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research suggests that parsley might decrease blood glucose. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary.
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates
Theoretically, parsley might increase serum levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
Laboratory research suggests that parsley can inhibit CYP1A2.
Diuretic Drugs
Theoretically, parsley might enhance or interfere with the effects of diuretic drugs.
Animal research suggests that parsley seed extract increases urine elimination. Parsley leaf and root might also interfere with diuretic therapy due their purported aquaretic effects.
Pentobarbital (Nembutal)
Theoretically, parsley might increase the duration of pentobarbital effects.
Animal research suggests that parsley juice prolongs the action of pentobarbital, perhaps by decreasing cytochrome P450 levels. It is not known if this occurs in humans or if this applies to other barbiturates or sedatives.
Sirolimus (Rapamune)
Theoretically, large quantities of parsley might increase sirolimus levels.
In one case report, an adult female with a history of kidney transplant presented with elevated blood sirolimus levels, approximately 4-7 times greater than previous measures, after daily consumption of a juice containing approximately 30 grams of parsley for 7 days. Sirolimus levels returned to normal a week after the parsley juice was discontinued.
Warfarin (Coumadin)
Theoretically, large amounts of parsley leaf and root might decrease the effects of warfarin.
Parlsey contains vitamin K.
Aspirin
Theoretically, aspirin might increase the severity of allergic reactions to parsley.
In one case, severe urticaria and swelling were reported after taking aspirin with parsley in an individual with a known mild parsley allergy.
organic Broccoli
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.
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.
Chromium
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, chromium may have additive effects with antidiabetic agents and increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Some research shows that taking chromium might lower blood glucose levels, especially in patients with poorly controlled type 2 diabetes.
Insulin
Theoretically, concomitant use of chromium and insulin might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
In clinical research, chromium has been shown to increase insulin sensitivity,
Levothyroxine (Synthroid, Others)
Chromium might bind levothyroxine in the intestinal tract and decrease levothyroxine absorption.
Clinical research in healthy volunteers shows that taking chromium picolinate 1000 mcg with levothyroxine 1 mg decreases serum levels of levothyroxine by 17% when compared to taking levothyroxine alone. Advise patients to take levothyroxine at least 30 minutes before or 3-4 hours after taking chromium.
Aspirin
Theoretically, aspirin might increase chromium absorption.
Animal research suggests that aspirin may increase chromium absorption and chromium levels in the blood.
Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (Nsaids)
NSAIDs might increase chromium levels in the body.
Drugs that are prostaglandin inhibitors, such as NSAIDs, seem to increase chromium absorption and retention.
S. cerevisiae
Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (Maois)
Theoretically, taking brewer's yeast with MAOIs might increase the risk of hypertension.
Brewer's yeast contains tyramine. Taking brewer's yeast with MAOIs might increase the risk for hypertensive crisis.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Taking brewer's yeast with antidiabetes drugs might increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Clinical research shows that taking chromium-containing brewer's yeast can decrease levels of blood glucose in diabetic patients being treated with antidiabetes drugs.
Lithium
Theoretically, taking brewer's yeast with lithium might cause additive effects and side effects.
Some brewer's yeast products contains lithium.
Antifungals
Theoretically, taking antifungals with some brewer's yeast products might decrease the effectiveness of brewer's yeast.
Some brewer's yeast products contain live yeast. Therefore, simultaneously taking antifungals might kill a significant number of the organisms.
