HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Mac-o-Power Plus by North American Herb & Spice

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

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 3 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

Mac-o-Power Plus contains three active ingredients: Purple Maca Root Extract, Purple Corn Extract (Raw), and Yacon Root Extract (Raw). The product is formulated as a liquid and contains no inactive ingredients listed.

Does it work?

Not established
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
Not established

The graded evidence we hold for these ingredients covers different conditions than the ones this product is marketed for, so there's no established rating for its stated use.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: supports healthy hormone system and energy response.
  • We looked for evidence on: Age-related testosterone deficiency, Postmenopausal conditions, Sexual desire, Fatigue, Athletic performance, hormonal balance — and 1 related terms.
  • The closest evidence on file: Corn Silk is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Fatigue (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Maca is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Athletic performance, Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), Fatigue, Postmenopausal conditions, and more.

The evidence supporting these ingredients isn't established in the data we hold. Purple Maca Root Extract has been studied for amenorrhea (missed periods), sexual dysfunction linked to antidepressants, athletic performance, anemia, and osteoporosis — but the research is too limited or unreliable to rate it as effective for any of these uses.

We have no effectiveness data on file for Purple Corn Extract, Raw or Yacon Root Extract, Raw.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Maca Corn Silk

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 2 of the 2 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 2 of 2.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 2 of 2.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Purple Maca Root Extract is generally well tolerated as a food, though long-term safety in supplement amounts hasn't been studied. Fresh, uncooked maca may cause stomach pain in some people.

The safety data advises against using this product during pregnancy or while breastfeeding — there isn't enough reliable information. We hold no safety data for Purple Corn Extract, Raw or Yacon Root Extract, Raw.
