HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Purple Probiotic 300 mg by Eclectic Herb

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 Jul 11, 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 2 of its 2 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product has two active ingredients: fermented purple cabbage and fermented sunchoke, each contributing 150 mg per capsule. Purple cabbage is a cruciferous vegetable that's been studied for its potential effects on blood sugar and cholesterol levels, as well as for breast engorgement relief.

Sunchoke, also known as Jerusalem artichoke, is a tuber that contributes prebiotic fiber. The capsule itself contains hypromellose, a plant-based capsule material.

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 Cabbage's overall clinical evidence instead.

Moderate

Some clinical evidence supports Cabbage for:

Why this rating?
  • The label markets general wellness (“digestive health and wellness support”), not a specific health condition, so there is no single claim to grade against clinical-evidence data.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Breast engorgement — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Purple cabbage has been rated possibly effective for breast engorgement — applying chilled leaves to the breast may help, though you should talk with your doctor first. For other uses like reducing cancer risk or improving cholesterol levels, the evidence we hold is insufficient to rate.

We don't have effectiveness data on file for the fermented sunchoke ingredient in this product.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient 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 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.

Cabbage is safe for most people when eaten as a food, but concentrated supplements or medicinal amounts in larger doses haven't been well studied. Allergic reactions to cabbage are rare, though people with allergies to broccoli or other vegetables in the cabbage family (Brassicaceae) may also react to cabbage.

In one small study of people using cabbage leaf wraps on their knees, the treatment was generally well tolerated. If you apply cabbage topically, watch for contact dermatitis (skin irritation).

We don't have safety data on file for fermented sunchoke.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Cabbage

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 — Cabbage.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications.
  • For scale: 325 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.

Check before starting if you take blood thinners like warfarin, diabetes medications, acetaminophen (Tylenol), sedatives like oxazepam (Serax), or any drugs processed through your liver's CYP1A2 system or glucuronidation pathways. The fermented cabbage in this product may reduce how well these work.

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.

If you take blood thinners, diabetes medications, pain relievers, or sedatives, check with your pharmacist before starting this — fermented cabbage can interact with all of these. Cabbage as a food is safe, but medicinal amounts in supplements aren't well studied.

This is a reasonable choice for general digestive support if you're not on interacting medications, but it's worth a quick conversation with us first.

Purple Cabbage, Fermented6 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.

Purple Probiotic 300 mg by Eclectic Herb: Common Questions

Does Purple Probiotic 300 mg by Eclectic Herb interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Purple Probiotic 300 mg has a known interaction with 325 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Purple Probiotic 300 mg contains 2 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 allergic to broccoli or cauliflower?
Be careful. Because cabbage is in the same vegetable family (Brassicaceae) as broccoli and cauliflower, people allergic to those vegetables may also react to cabbage. If you have a known allergy to other cruciferous vegetables, talk to your doctor or pharmacist before starting.
Will this help with my blood sugar or cholesterol?
The evidence we hold on cabbage for cholesterol and blood sugar isn't strong enough to rate yet. We have some research suggesting it might help, but we can't say for sure. If you're interested in using it for those reasons, check with your pharmacist about whether it's right for you.
Is this safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
We don't have pregnancy or breastfeeding safety data on file for this product. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist — they can give you personalized advice based on your situation.
What does fermented sunchoke do in this product?
Sunchoke is a source of prebiotic fiber, which may support digestive health. We don't have detailed effectiveness or safety data on the fermented form, so check with your pharmacist about what to expect.
Is cabbage supplement safe if I eat a lot of cabbage anyway?
Cabbage as food is safe for most people, but this is a concentrated supplement. Large medicinal amounts haven't been well studied, so taking both a supplement and eating lots of cabbage could add up — especially if you take warfarin or diabetes medications. Talk to your pharmacist about how much is okay for you.
