HelloPharmacist Scorecard of OncoPLEX ES by XYMOGEN

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

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.

OncoPLEX ES contains one active ingredient: TrueBroc, a broccoli extract. Broccoli is a cruciferous vegetable whose concentrated form is used in supplements for its bioactive compounds, particularly glucosinolates.

The product also contains several inactive ingredients (hypromellose, water, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, medium chain triglyceride oil, and silica) that serve as the capsule shell, binder, and flow agents.

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 evidence for broccoli in colorectal cancer prevention is rated possibly effective—meaning there's some promising research, but it's not yet definitive. For bladder cancer, breast cancer, fibromyalgia, and gastric cancer, the data we hold shows insufficient reliable evidence to make a rating one way or the other.

If you're considering this supplement for any of these conditions, talk with your doctor about what the current research supports for your situation.

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 generally well tolerated in normal amounts. However, concentrated broccoli supplements are less studied than whole broccoli, and the safety data available advises caution—your doctor should approve use of a concentrated extract before you start.

The most common side effects reported from broccoli seed and sprout extracts are loose stools, diarrhea, abdominal pain, and cramping, especially at higher doses. Topical contact with broccoli has occasionally caused allergic reactions and contact dermatitis in sensitive individuals.

The safety data shows this supplement is likely safe in pregnancy and lactation, though concentrated extracts remain less studied than whole food.

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.

Before taking OncoPLEX ES, check with your doctor or pharmacist about any medications processed through your liver—especially those metabolized by the CYP2A6 enzyme (the most serious concern) and CYP1A2 enzyme. Broccoli extract can significantly reduce the levels of drugs handled by these pathways, which may weaken their effects.

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.

OncoPLEX ES may be worth considering if you're interested in broccoli's potential role in colorectal cancer support and your doctor thinks it's appropriate for you. The main caution is that its concentrated form hasn't been as thoroughly studied as whole broccoli, and it can speed up how your liver clears certain medications—potentially making them less effective.

Before you start, talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether it fits your health picture and whether it could interfere with any of your current medications.

Formula

TrueBroc broccoli seed extract is obtained using a patented process to extract glucoraphanin (also known as sulforaphane glucosinolate or “sgs”) from its most concentrated cruciferous source—broccoli seeds. Glucoraphanin is enzymatically converted to the extensively researched isothiocyanate known as sulforaphane (SFN). Research suggests that SFN supports long-lasting antioxidant activity and the production of detoxification enzymes. It also extends support to the immune, nervous, and cardiovascular systems, addressing the maintenance of good health throughout adult life. OncoPLEX ES provides 100 mg of glucoraphanin per capsule.

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.

OncoPLEX ES by XYMOGEN: Common Questions

Does OncoPLEX ES by XYMOGEN interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, OncoPLEX ES 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?
OncoPLEX ES 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 TrueBroc?
TrueBroc is a concentrated broccoli extract, which means the active compounds from broccoli are extracted and concentrated into a supplement form. It contains glucosinolates, the compounds in broccoli that our body converts into other bioactive substances.
Does broccoli extract actually prevent cancer?
The research shows broccoli is possibly effective for colorectal cancer prevention, meaning there's some promising evidence but it's not yet proven. For other cancers—bladder, breast, and gastric—we don't yet have reliable enough evidence to say whether it helps. Talk with your doctor about whether broccoli supplementation makes sense as part of your overall approach.
What side effects might I notice?
The most common side effects from broccoli extracts are digestive issues: loose stools, diarrhea, stomach pain, or cramping—especially at higher doses. If you have sensitive skin, topical contact with broccoli can occasionally trigger allergic reactions.
Is it safe to take during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
The safety data rates broccoli as likely safe during pregnancy and lactation. However, because concentrated extracts are less studied than whole broccoli as a food, it's a good idea to confirm with your doctor before starting it while pregnant or nursing.
Why does the interaction checker show so many medications?
Broccoli speeds up two of your liver's major enzyme systems—CYP2A6 and CYP1A2—that break down many different medications. Even though broccoli's effect is real, whether it actually matters for your specific drugs depends on the dose, which medications you take, and your individual metabolism. That's why checking your exact list is important.
