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 9 of its 9 active ingredients.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains 9 active ingredients: apigenin, cat's claw bark extract, diindolylmethane (3,3'-diindolymethane), indole-3-carbinol (I3C), watercress whole herb extract, rosemary leaf extract, cabbage leaf extract, trans-resveratrol, and broccoli plant seed extract concentrate. Most are from cruciferous vegetables (broccoli, cabbage) or plant extracts chosen for their phytochemical content.

The inactive ingredients are cellulose, maltodextrin, vegetable stearate, and silica — standard capsule fillers and binders.

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: Memory — rated "Possibly Effective" (Rosemary) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Breast engorgement — rated "Possibly Effective" (Cabbage) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Allergic rhinitis (hay fever) — rated "Possibly Effective" (Resveratrol) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Obesity — rated "Possibly Effective" (Resveratrol) (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Colorectal cancer — rated "Possibly Effective" (Broccoli) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for this product's claimed uses is limited. Rosemary leaf extract is rated possibly effective for memory support.

Resveratrol carries a possibly effective rating for obesity and allergic rhinitis (hay fever), though it's rated possibly ineffective for cardiovascular disease and high cholesterol. Cabbage leaf extract is possibly effective for breast engorgement.

Broccoli is possibly effective for colorectal cancer prevention. For the other ingredients and most other uses — including cancer, Alzheimer's disease, asthma, and various hormone-related conditions — the evidence we hold is insufficient to rate their effectiveness.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Cat's Claw Diindolylmethane Indole-3-carbinol Watercress Rosemary Cabbage Resveratrol 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 8 of the 8 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 8 of 8.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 8 of 8.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Cat's claw is generally well tolerated short-term in healthy adults, but long-term safety isn't well studied. Serious adverse effects, though rare, have included anemia, low white blood cell counts, low platelets, and kidney injury in case reports.

Resveratrol, diindolylmethane, and broccoli are rated likely safe in pregnancy and lactation. However, cat's claw and indole-3-carbinol should be avoided during pregnancy due to traditional use as an abortifacient or insufficient safety data, and avoided while breastfeeding.

Watercress, rosemary, and cabbage carry insufficient data during pregnancy and lactation — discuss with your doctor. Most ingredients cause mild gastrointestinal upset (diarrhea, nausea, gas) at typical doses.

Indole-3-carbinol at higher doses has caused imbalance and tremor. Raw watercress can carry parasitic contamination if not properly sourced.

Cat's Claw Bark Extract6 drug types · 964 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, cat's claw may increase the risk of bleeding if used with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs.
Cat's claw contains rhynchophylline and isorhynchophylline. Animal research suggests that these alkaloids can inhibit platelet aggregation. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, taking cat's claw with antihypertensive drugs might increase the risk of hypotension.
Cat's claw contains rhynchophylline. In vitro and animal research suggests that rhynchophylline can lower blood pressure. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Calcium Channel Blockers

Theoretically, taking cat's claw with calcium channel blockers might increase the risk of hypotension.
Cat's claw contains various alkaloids, including rhynchophylline, isorhynchophylline, corynoxeine, and isocorynoxiene. Animal research suggests that these alkaloids can lower blood pressure by acting as calcium channel blockers. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Cytochrome P450 3A4 (Cyp3A4) Substrates

Theoretically, cat's claw might increase or decrease the levels and effects of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
Cat's claw may affect the clearance of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4. In vitro research shows that cat's claw can inhibit CYP3A4 enzymes. In one case report, a patient taking cat's claw (at an unspecified dose) experienced increased serum levels of atazanavir, ritonavir, and saquinavir, all of which are CYP3A4 substrates. Levels returned to normal 15 days after discontinuation of the cat's claw supplement, suggesting inhibition of CYP3A4 by cat's claw. In contrast, animal research suggests that rhynchophylline, an alkaloid contained in cat's claw, induces CYP3A expression and accelerates the metabolism of nirmatrelvir, the active component in the nirmatrelvir/ritonavir combination product.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Immunosuppressants

Theoretically, cat's claw might interfere with immunosuppressive therapy.
In human and laboratory research, cat's claw has been shown to have immunostimulating activity. It stimulates phagocytosis and increases respiratory cellular activity and the mobility of leukocytes. Theoretically, this could interfere with the activity of immunosuppressant medications.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir (Paxlovid)

Theoretically, cat's claw may decrease the levels of nirmatrelvir.
Cat's claw contains rhynchophylline. Animal research suggests that this alkaloid induces CYP3A expression, thereby accelerating the metabolism of nirmatrelvir, the active component in the nirmatrelvir/ritonavir combination product. This interaction has not been reported in humans.

Theoretically, resveratrol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2C19.
In vitro research shows that resveratrol can inhibit CYP2C19 enzymes. However, this interaction has not been reported in humans.

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

Resveratrol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP2E1.
In vitro research suggests that resveratrol inhibits CYP2E1 isoenzyme. Also, a pharmacokinetic study shows that taking resveratrol 500 mg daily for 10 days prior to taking a single dose of chlorzoxazone 250 mg increases the maximum concentration of chlorzoxazone by about 54%, the area under the curve of chlorzoxazone by about 72%, and the half-life of chlorzoxazone by about 35%. Chlorzoxazone is used as a probe drug for CYP2E1.

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

Theoretically, resveratrol might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP3A4.
In vitro research shows that resveratrol can inhibit the CYP3A4 enzyme. However, clinical research shows that taking resveratrol 3000 mg daily for 8 weeks does not necessitate dose adjustments to medications metabolized by CYP3A4.

Triple Action Cruciferous Vegetable Extract and Resveratrol by Life Extension: Common Questions

Does Triple Action Cruciferous Vegetable Extract and Resveratrol by Life Extension interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Triple Action Cruciferous Vegetable Extract and Resveratrol has a known interaction with 1,171 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Triple Action Cruciferous Vegetable Extract and Resveratrol contains 9 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.
Is this safe to take if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Not for all ingredients. Resveratrol and broccoli are rated likely safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, cat's claw and indole-3-carbinol should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient safety data or traditional concerns. For the others, safety data isn't on file. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking this during pregnancy or while breastfeeding — they can give you personalized advice based on your health.
What does resveratrol do in this product?
Resveratrol is a phytochemical from grapes and other plants that's included for its possible effects on obesity and allergic rhinitis (hay fever). It's rated possibly effective for these uses, though evidence is still limited. It may also have antioxidant properties, which is why it's added to many supplements.
Can I take this with my blood thinner?
Probably not without checking first. Several ingredients in this product — cat's claw, indole-3-carbinol, rosemary, resveratrol, watercress, and cabbage — can increase bleeding risk or reduce the effectiveness of blood thinners like warfarin. Use the medication checker on this page with your exact blood thinner, and then talk to your pharmacist before starting.
What side effects should I expect?
Most common are mild digestive issues: diarrhea, nausea, gas, and abdominal discomfort, especially from the indole-3-carbinol and broccoli components. Headache and fatigue have been reported with resveratrol. At higher doses, indole-3-carbinol has caused imbalance and tremor. If you develop rash, swelling, or severe symptoms, stop and contact your pharmacist.
Will this interact with my liver medications?
Possibly. Multiple ingredients — resveratrol, indole-3-carbinol, broccoli, cabbage, and rosemary — can affect how your liver breaks down certain drugs (CYP1A2, CYP2C19, CYP3A4, and CYP2E1 substrates), potentially raising or lowering drug levels. Check your medications with the tool on this page, and talk to your pharmacist about whether it's safe to combine them.
Is this product safe if I have kidney problems?
Cat's claw has been linked to kidney injury in case reports. If you have kidney disease or a history of kidney problems, talk to your pharmacist or doctor before taking this product, especially because of the cat's claw content.
