LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally in food amounts (14145). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of broccoli when used in medicinal amounts.
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally in food amounts (14145).
There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of broccoli when used in medicinal amounts during pregnancy and lactation; avoid using.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally in amounts commonly found in foods.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately in medicinal amounts (18). ...when used topically and appropriately, short-term. Topical application of cabbage leaves has been general well-tolerated in short-term studies (6781,6782,6783,6784,93671,110558). However, pain, itching, and burning with topical use of cabbage leaves have been reported in some patients leaving cabbage leaf wraps in place for 2-4 hours (93671,93675).
PREGNANCY:
There is insufficient reliable information available about using cabbage in medicinal amounts during pregnancy; avoid using.
LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when used topically and appropriately, short-term.
Significant adverse effects have not been reported in short-term studies (6781,6782,6783,6784,93673,93677). There is insufficient reliable information available about using cabbage orally in medicinal amounts during lactation; avoid using.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used in amounts commonly found in foods.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately in medicinal amounts. Spinach has been used with apparent safety at a dose of 5 grams daily for up to 12 weeks (96856).
CHILDREN: LIKELY SAFE
when consumed in the amounts commonly found in foods by children older than 4 months of age (18).
CHILDREN: LIKELY UNSAFE
when used orally in infants under 4 months old; the high nitrate content of spinach can cause methemoglobinemia (18).
There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of spinach in children when used in medicinal amounts.
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE

Theoretically, broccoli might reduce the levels and effects of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
Details
|
Theoretically, broccoli might reduce the levels and effects of drugs metabolized by CYP2A6.
Details
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 (19608).
|
Cabbage might increase clearance and reduce the effects of acetaminophen.
Details
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 (3952).
|
Theoretically, cabbage might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Details
Animal and in vivo research suggests that cabbage might have hypoglycemic effects (25424).
|
Theoretically, cabbage might decrease levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
Details
|
Theoretically, cabbage might increase clearance and decrease the effects of drugs metabolized through glucuronide conjugation.
Details
A small clinical study shows that daily consumption of cabbage and Brussels sprout decreases levels of some drugs metabolized through glucuronide conjugation (3952).
|
Cabbage might increase clearance and reduce the effects of oxazepam.
Details
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 (3952).
|
Theoretically, cabbage might decrease the anticoagulant effects of warfarin.
Details
Cabbage contains vitamin K. If consumed in large quantities, cabbage might decrease the anticoagulant effects of warfarin (19).
|
Spinach contains vitamin K, which can interfere with the activity of warfarin.
Details
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 (19600). Individuals using anticoagulants should consume a consistent daily amount of spinach to maintain the effect of anticoagulant therapy (19).

Below is general information about the adverse effects of the known ingredients contained in the product Mixed Vegetables. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
General ...Broccoli is well tolerated when consumed as food. A thorough evaluation of safety outcomes when broccoli is taken as medicine has not been conducted.
Dermatologic ...Topically, allergic reactions to broccoli have caused contact dermatitis (14158).
Hepatic ...In one case report, a 56-year-old adult developed elevated transaminases, with alanine aminotransferase (ALT) 5. 8 times above normal, aspartate aminotransferase (AST) 2.4 times above normal, and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) 5.1 times above normal. This was thought to be related to the consumption of 800 mL of broccoli juice daily over a 4-week period. Values returned to normal 15 days after cessation of juice consumption (96191).
Immunologic ...Topically, allergic reactions to broccoli have caused contact dermatitis (14158).
General ...Topically, cabbage leaf seems to be well-tolerated.
Dermatologic ...Some preliminary clinical research shows that application of cabbage leaf wraps to knee joints for at least 2 hours daily for 4 weeks is generally well-tolerated. Of the 27 patients using cabbage leaf wraps in this study, one patient reported an itching and burning sensation during the application. This patient was later found to have shingles, which may explain the adverse event (93671). However, in another case, a patient applying fresh Savoy cabbage leaves on his knee to reduce joint pain reported pain and burning after 4 hours of use. Skin patch and prick tests did not indicate an allergic reaction, and the patient's lesion improved with wet dressings, topical antibiotics, and oral antibiotics (93675).
Immunologic ...Topically, cabbage may cause contact dermatitis (93675). Allergic reactions to cabbage-related vegetables are rare. However, anaphylactic reactions to broccoli and cauliflower have been reported. Because the surface proteins believed to cause allergic reactions to brocolli are also found in cabbage, some patients allergic to brocolli or other vegetables in the Brassicaceae family may also be allergic to cabbage (92516).
Other ...Topical application of cabbage leaves to the breasts has been reported to stain clothes and put off an unpleasant smell (6781,6782).
General
...Orally, spinach is well tolerated when consumed as a food.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: In infants under 4 months of age, methemoglobinemia has been reported.
All routes of administration: Allergies in sensitive individuals.
Dermatologic ...Topically, contact dermatitis has been reported from spinach in a 54-year-old female farmer (41757).
Gastrointestinal ...Bagged spinach has been linked to Escherichia coli outbreaks, sometimes causing severe gastrointestinal symptoms and even death (75846,75847,75849,75851,96858).
Hematologic ...Orally, spinach ingestion by infants under 4 months of age can cause methemoglobinemia, due to its high nitrate content (75802,75858,75860,75861,75862).
Immunologic ...Orally, topically, and via inhalation, spinach has been reported to cause allergic reactions in sensitive individuals (75870,96859).
Pulmonary/Respiratory ...Lung inflammation associated with allergic alveolitis has been reported after inhalation of spinach powder (75871). The powder has also been reported to induce occupational asthma in a spinach factory worker (75833).
