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 7 of its 7 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

Live Cell contains 7 active ingredients: pomegranate, larch arabinogalactan, parsley, broccoli, kale, onion, and okra. These are whole-food plant ingredients; the product also contains inactive ingredients—cellulose, rice extract, and silicon dioxide—which serve as capsule material and flow agents.

Most of these ingredients are common vegetables or plant compounds traditionally used in herbal and nutritional practice. Pomegranate, broccoli, kale, and onion are recognizable foods; parsley and okra are culinary plants; and larch arabinogalactan is a fiber derived from larch tree wood.

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
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: antioxidant support and healthy cell metabolism.
  • We looked for evidence on: cellular detoxification, cellular health, metabolic support.
  • The closest evidence on file: Pomegranate is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Metabolic syndrome (Natural Medicines).

Evidence for Live Cell's ingredients varies widely. Pomegranate is rated possibly effective for high blood pressure but possibly ineffective for high cholesterol and diabetes.

Broccoli is rated possibly effective for colorectal cancer prevention. For the other ingredients—larch arabinogalactan, parsley, kale, onion, and okra—the data we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence to rate their effectiveness for the conditions they've been studied for.

Overall, the evidence supporting this product's specific health claims is limited.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Pomegranate Larch Arabinogalactan Parsley Broccoli Kale Onion Ambrette

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 6 of the 7 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 7 of 7.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 7 of 7.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Pomegranate fruit and juice are generally well tolerated, though concentrated extracts warrant caution due to limited data. Mild gastrointestinal upset (diarrhea, flatulence, nausea) occurred in a small number of people taking high-dose extracts.

Larch arabinogalactan is generally well tolerated as a fiber but may cause bloating and flatulence; long-term safety data are limited. Broccoli as a food is safe; concentrated extracts may cause loose stools or abdominal discomfort at high doses.

Kale is considered safe as a food. Onion is well tolerated in normal amounts but can cause heartburn or abdominal pain; rare allergic reactions including anaphylaxis have been reported.

Parsley in food amounts is safe, but the product contains multiple ingredients, and parsley safety data on supplements are limited. For pregnancy: pomegranate is rated possibly safe, broccoli and kale are likely safe, but parsley is rated likely unsafe and okra is rated possibly unsafe.

For breastfeeding: pomegranate, broccoli, and kale have sufficient safety data (kale likely safe); data for the others are insufficient or advise caution. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.

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?
  • 6 of the 7 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Ambrette, Pomegranate, Onion, Parsley, Larch Arabinogalactan, among others.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; immunosuppressants / transplant drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 1,194 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 Live Cell, double-check with your own doctor or pharmacist if you take any of the following: immunosuppressants (used after organ transplant), blood pressure medications or ACE inhibitors, blood thinners including warfarin or antiplatelet drugs, diabetes medications, water pills (diuretics), cholesterol drugs like rosuvastatin, liver-metabolized drugs (particularly those processed by CYP1A2, CYP2A6, or CYP2D6 enzymes), or any barbiturate sedatives. These are the medication types with documented interactions; the list is not exhaustive.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Live Cell is a multi-ingredient supplement with a mix of common vegetables and plant compounds. If you take blood pressure medication, diabetes drugs, blood thinners, or immunosuppressants, you'll want to check with your own doctor or pharmacist before using it—the interactions are real and warrant review of your specific regimen.

The effectiveness evidence for most of its ingredients is thin or absent. Talk it over with your healthcare provider to decide if it fits your health goals.

For each ingredient in Live Cell 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.

Pomegranate9 drug types · 922 drugs

Ace Inhibitors (Aceis)

Theoretically, taking pomegranate with ACEIs might increase the risk of adverse effects.
Pomegranate juice is thought to have ACE inhibitor-like effects.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking pomegranate with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Consuming pomegranate juice can modestly lower blood pressure.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 2D6 (Cyp2D6) Substrates

Theoretically, pomegranate might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2D6.
In vitro, pomegranate juice inhibits CYP2D6. However, the clinical significance of this potential interaction in humans is not known.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Rosuvastatin (Crestor)

Theoretically, taking pomegranate with rosuvastatin might increase the risk of adverse effects.
In one case, a patient taking rosuvastatin 5 mg every other day in combination with ezetimibe 10 mg daily developed rhabdomyolysis after drinking pomegranate juice 200 mL twice weekly for 3 weeks. This patient had a history of elevated creatine kinase levels while not receiving any statin treatment. This suggests a possible underlying myopathy and predisposition to rhabdomyolysis.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, pomegranate might increase warfarin levels and increase the risk of bleeding. Also, discontinuing regular consumption of pomegranate juice might decrease warfarin levels.
In one case report, a patient had a stable, therapeutic bleeding time, as measured by international normalized ratio (INR), while taking warfarin in combination with pomegranate juice 2-3 times per week. The patient became subtherapeutic within about 10 days after discontinuing pomegranate juice, which required a warfarin dose increase. In another case report, a patient with a stable INR for over one year presented with an INR of 14. The patient noted no changes to medications or diet but did report consuming around 3 liters of pomegranate juice over the previous week. The patient's INR stabilized upon moderation of pomegranate juice consumption. The mechanism of this potential interaction is unclear.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Carbamazepine (Tegretol)

Theoretically, taking pomegranate with carbamazepine might increase the risk of adverse effects, although research suggests this interaction is unlikely to be clinically significant.
Animal research shows that pomegranate juice may inhibit cytochrome P450 3A4 (CYP3A4) metabolism of carbamazepine and increase levels of carbamazepine by 1.5 times without prolonging the elimination half-life. This suggests that pomegranate juice inhibits intestinal CYP3A4, but might not inhibit hepatic CYP3A4. However, some human research suggests that pomegranate does not significantly inhibit CYP3A4 drug metabolism in humans.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 2C9 (Cyp2C9) Substrates

Theoretically, pomegranate might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C9.
Some animal and in vitro research shows that pomegranate juice inhibits intestinal, but not hepatic, CYP2C9 isoenzyme activity. However, clinical research shows that neither pomegranate juice nor pomegranate extract have a significant effect on CYP2C9 activity in humans.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, pomegranate might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4, but most research suggests this interaction is unlikely to be clinically significant.
Pomegranate contains several polyphenols that have individually been shown to inhibit CYP3A4. However, there is contradictory evidence about the effect of whole pomegranate juice on CYP3A4 activity. In vitro, pomegranate juice significantly inhibits the CYP3A4 enzyme, with comparable inhibition to grapefruit juice. In an animal model, pomegranate juice inhibits CYP3A4 metabolism of carbamazepine and increases levels of carbamazepine by 1.5 times; however, in human volunteers, drinking a single glass of pomegranate juice 240 mL or taking 200 mL daily for 2 weeks does not significantly affect levels of the CYP3A4 substrate midazolam after oral or intravenous administration. Another study in healthy volunteers shows that consuming pomegranate juice 300 mL three times daily for three days also does not significantly affect levels of simvastatin, a CYP3A4 substrate This suggests that pomegranate is unlikely to significantly affect levels of CYP3A4 substrates in humans.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence B
Tolbutamide (Orinase)

Theoretically, pomegranate might increase levels of tolbutamide, although research suggests this interaction is unlikely to be clinically significant.
Animal research shows that pomegranate juice inhibits the cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9) metabolism of tolbutamide. Pomegranate juice increased tolbutamide levels by 1.2 times without prolonging the elimination half-life. This suggests that pomegranate juice inhibits intestinal CYP2C9, but might not inhibit hepatic CYP2C9. Despite this evidence, clinical research shows that neither pomegranate juice nor pomegranate extract have a significant effect on CYP2C9 activity in humans. This interaction does not appear to be clinically significant in humans.

Pomegranate full monograph & interactions

Parsley8 drug types · 443 drugs

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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, parsley might increase serum levels of CYP1A2 substrates.
Laboratory research suggests that parsley can inhibit CYP1A2.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, large amounts of parsley leaf and root might decrease the effects of warfarin.
Parlsey contains vitamin K.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
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.

Likelihood Unlikely Evidence D
Parsley full monograph & interactions

Onion5 drug types · 275 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, concomitant use of anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs with onion might increase the risk of bleeding.
In vitro research shows that onion inhibits platelet aggregation.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antidiabetes Drugs

Concomitant use of antidiabetes drugs with onion may increase the risk of hypoglycemia.
Animal research and clinical research shows that taking onion can lower blood glucose levels. Monitor blood glucose levels closely.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Aspirin

Concomitant use of aspirin with onion may worsen onion allergy.
In one case report, a patient with a mild onion allergy reported worsening allergy, including swelling and severe urticaria, after taking aspirin.

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

Theoretically, taking onion might increase the levels and clinical effects of drugs metabolized by CYP2E1.
Animal research shows that taking onion powder inhibits CYP2E1. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Lithium

Onion is thought to have diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to these potential diuretic effects, onion might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium. The dose of lithium might need to be decreased.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Onion full monograph & interactions

Broccoli2 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.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Broccoli full monograph & interactions

Larch Arabinogalactan1 drug type · 121 drugs

Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, larch arabinogalactan might interfere with immunosuppression therapy due to immunostimulant effects. Immunosuppressant drugs include azathioprine (Imuran), basiliximab (Simulect), cyclosporine (Neoral, Sandimmune), daclizumab (Zenapax), muromonab-CD3 (OKT3, Orthoclone OKT3), mycophenolate (CellCept), tacrolimus (FK506, Prograf), sirolimus (Rapamune), prednisone (Deltasone, Orasone), corticosteroids (glucocorticoids), and other drugs.

Live Cell by D'Adamo Personalized Nutrition: Common Questions

Does Live Cell by D'Adamo Personalized Nutrition interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Live Cell has a known interaction with 1,193 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Live Cell contains 7 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is 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.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant?
The data are mixed. Pomegranate is rated possibly safe, and broccoli and kale are likely safe in pregnancy. However, parsley is rated likely unsafe and okra is rated possibly unsafe. Because this product contains multiple ingredients with varying safety ratings in pregnancy, talk with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it.
Does this product really work for high cholesterol or diabetes?
The evidence is weak. Pomegranate is rated possibly ineffective for high cholesterol. For diabetes, most of the ingredients we have data on show insufficient evidence to know whether they help. If you're managing cholesterol or blood sugar, rely on your doctor's recommended treatment rather than this supplement alone.
What are the most common side effects?
Mild gastrointestinal upset is the most common—diarrhea, flatulence, heartburn, or abdominal discomfort—particularly if you take higher doses or have a sensitive stomach. Bloating from the larch arabinogalactan fiber is also possible. Most people tolerate the ingredients as food without problems.
Is this safe if I'm breastfeeding?
Broccoli and kale are considered safe while breastfeeding. For the other ingredients—pomegranate, parsley, larch arabinogalactan, onion, and okra—the safety data during lactation are insufficient or advise caution. Check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting it.
What is larch arabinogalactan and why is it in this?
Larch arabinogalactan is a fiber extracted from larch tree wood. It's included for its potential prebiotic and immune-support properties, though the evidence is not well established. It's generally well tolerated but may cause bloating or gas as your body adjusts to increased fiber.
Will this interact with my blood thinner?
Possibly. Pomegranate, parsley, and onion all have documented interactions with blood thinners including warfarin. Parsley also contains vitamin K, which can reduce warfarin's effectiveness. Check with your own doctor or pharmacist before taking this product if you're on any blood thinner.
