HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Mixed Vegetables by NaturesPlus

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

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 4 of its 4 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This tablet contains 4 active vegetable ingredients: carrot, spinach, broccoli, and cabbage. Carrot provides beta-carotene, a form of vitamin A.

Spinach and broccoli are nutrient-dense greens, and cabbage is a cruciferous vegetable — all three are sources of vitamins, minerals, and compounds like vitamin K and glucosinolates. The product also contains inactive ingredients (dicalcium phosphate, microcrystalline cellulose, stearic acid, silica, cellulose, magnesium stearate, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, and pharmaceutical glaze) that act as fillers, binders, and capsule materials.

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 its ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports its ingredients 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 ingredients' overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Breast engorgement — rated "Possibly Effective" (Cabbage) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Colorectal cancer — rated "Possibly Effective" (Broccoli) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Vitamin A deficiency — rated "Possibly Effective" (Carrot) (Natural Medicines).

Evidence for effectiveness is limited and mixed. Carrot is possibly effective for vitamin A deficiency, but for conditions like breast cancer, colorectal cancer, fibromyalgia, and prostate cancer, the evidence is insufficient to rate it.

Broccoli is possibly effective for colorectal cancer, but evidence for other cancers and other conditions is insufficient. Cabbage is possibly effective for breast engorgement, but evidence for cancers and other uses is insufficient.

For spinach, spinach is possibly effective for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, cognitive function, muscle strength, obesity, and polycystic ovary syndrome — the evidence we have is insufficient to rate. In short, while these vegetables are nutritious, claims about their therapeutic benefits for specific diseases lack strong evidence in the data we hold.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Carrot Spinach Broccoli Cabbage

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 4 of the 4 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 4 of 4.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 4 of 4.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

All four ingredients — carrot, spinach, broccoli, and cabbage — are rated likely safe in pregnancy and lactation when eaten as whole foods. However, the safety profile changes with concentrated supplements: carrot seed oil and high-dose extracts should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Broccoli and cabbage concentrated supplements lack well-established safety data in pregnancy and lactation, so talk with your doctor or pharmacist if you're pregnant or nursing and considering this product. As foods, all are well tolerated; as supplements, allergic reactions (including hives, swelling, asthma, and gastrointestinal upset) are possible in sensitive people.

Broccoli seed and sprout extracts may cause loose stools, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and cramping, especially at high doses.

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?
  • 3 of the 4 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Cabbage, Spinach, Broccoli.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 326 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 blood thinners (especially warfarin/Coumadin), antidiabetes drugs, acetaminophen (Tylenol), oxazepam (Serax), or any medication metabolized by your liver — particularly through the CYP1A2 and CYP2A6 pathways or glucuronide conjugation. Spinach's vitamin K and broccoli's and cabbage's enzyme-inducing compounds can reduce how well these drugs work or require dose adjustments.

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 mixed-vegetable supplement may be useful if you're looking to add nutrients from whole foods in tablet form, but evidence for treating specific health conditions is weak or absent. If you take a blood thinner, diabetes medication, or any drug your liver processes heavily, you need to check your exact medications with your doctor or pharmacist before starting — the interaction potential is real and dose-significant.

Talk it over with your healthcare provider, especially if you're pregnant, nursing, or taking any prescription drugs.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Mixed Vegetables 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.

Cabbage6 drug types · 325 drugs

Acetaminophen (Tylenol, Others)

Cabbage might increase clearance and reduce the effects of acetaminophen.
A small clinical study shows that daily consumption of cabbage and Brussels sprout decreases acetaminophen levels by as much as 16%, with some evidence suggesting that this effect is due to increased elimination through glucuronide conjugation.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, cabbage might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal and in vivo research suggests that cabbage might have hypoglycemic effects.

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

Theoretically, cabbage might decrease levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
Some animal research suggests that cabbage or its constituent indole-3-carbinol might increase drug metabolism and elimination by stimulating CYP1A2 activity.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Glucuronidated Drugs

Theoretically, cabbage might increase clearance and decrease the effects of drugs metabolized through glucuronide conjugation.
A small clinical study shows that daily consumption of cabbage and Brussels sprout decreases levels of some drugs metabolized through glucuronide conjugation.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Oxazepam (Serax)

Cabbage might increase clearance and reduce the effects of oxazepam.
A small clinical study shows that daily consumption of cabbage and brussels sprout decreases oxazepam levels by as much as 17%, with some evidence suggesting that this effect is due to increased elimination through glucuronide conjugation.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Theoretically, cabbage might decrease the anticoagulant effects of warfarin.
Cabbage contains vitamin K. If consumed in large quantities, cabbage might decrease the anticoagulant effects of warfarin.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

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

Spinach2 drug types · 88 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

There are claims that spinach leaves have hypoglycemic effects. Evidence from clinical research suggests that consumption of a spinach-rich meal reduces post-meal blood glucose levels. Theoretically, spinach might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs and increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary. Some antidiabetes drugs include glimepiride (Amaryl), glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase PresTab, Micronase), insulin, pioglitazone (Actos), rosiglitazone (Avandia), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Spinach contains vitamin K, which can interfere with the activity of warfarin.
In human research, although eating spinach with one meal does not result in coagulation test results outside the therapeutic range, daily consumption for one week necessitates dose adjustment of warfarin. Individuals using anticoagulants should consume a consistent daily amount of spinach to maintain the effect of anticoagulant therapy.

Mixed Vegetables by NaturesPlus: Common Questions

Does Mixed Vegetables by NaturesPlus interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Mixed Vegetables has a known interaction with 326 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Mixed Vegetables contains 4 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.
Does this product actually have any proven health benefits?
The strongest evidence is for carrot in treating vitamin A deficiency, and broccoli for colorectal cancer prevention — but even that is "possibly effective", not proven. For other conditions listed, the evidence is insufficient to rate, meaning there isn't enough reliable data to say whether it works. These are real vegetables with real nutrients, but marketed therapeutic claims aren't well established.
Is it safe to take this while pregnant or breastfeeding?
These vegetables are safe to eat as whole foods during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, this is a concentrated supplement form, and for carrot, broccoli, and cabbage concentrates, safety in pregnancy and lactation isn't well studied. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting if you're pregnant or nursing — they know your individual situation.
What's the main risk if I'm on warfarin?
Spinach in this product contains vitamin K, which interferes with warfarin's blood-thinning effect. Eating spinach with one meal usually isn't a problem, but daily use of this product for a week or longer may require a warfarin dose adjustment. Your doctor or pharmacist needs to monitor you.
Can this product affect my diabetes medication?
Yes. Both spinach and cabbage may lower blood sugar, and taking this product with antidiabetes drugs could increase the risk of low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Monitor your blood glucose closely and talk with your doctor about whether this supplement is right for you.
Are there any common side effects from this supplement?
When these vegetables are eaten as whole foods, side effects are rare. As a supplement, allergic reactions (hives, swelling, asthma, diarrhea) can occur in sensitive people. Broccoli extract at high doses may cause loose stools, diarrhea, or stomach pain. Most people tolerate it well.
Why does the interaction count show 326 medications?
Broccoli and cabbage can speed up how your liver processes a large number of drugs, and spinach affects how your body handles blood thinners and blood-sugar drugs. One ingredient can interact with dozens of medications; across all four vegetables in this product, the total adds up to 326 individual drugs documented in the research. That's why checking your specific medications is important.
