HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Make Mom Proud Power Shake by Herb Stop

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

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 11 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

Make Mom Proud Power Shake is a powder with 11 ingredients. The active ingredients are leafy greens and vegetables: a proprietary blend (whose components are listed individually), leek, carrot, cauliflower, spinach, kale, watercress, black radish, green pea, celery, tomato, and brussel sprout.

There are no inactive fillers or other ingredients listed.

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: Vitamin A deficiency — rated "Possibly Effective" (Carrot) (Natural Medicines).

The evidence for what this shake can do is mixed and mostly limited. Carrot is possibly effective for vitamin A deficiency, though most other health claims around it—breast cancer, colorectal cancer, fibromyalgia, and prostate cancer—don't have enough reliable evidence yet.

Spinach, kale, watercress, celery, tomato, and the other vegetables have insufficient evidence to rate for their purported benefits: claims about brain function, muscle strength, blood sugar control, heart health, and various cancers haven't been proven in the data we hold. Concentrated food powders like this one are less studied than the whole vegetables themselves, so the evidence gap is even wider.

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 6 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.

As a food-based powder, Make Mom Proud Power Shake is generally well tolerated. Carrot, spinach, kale, and tomato are all considered safe when eaten as foods, including in pregnancy and while breastfeeding.

However, some cautions apply to certain ingredients when taken as concentrated supplements rather than whole foods. Watercress is rated likely unsafe in pregnancy and should be avoided during that time.

Celery seed is also rated likely unsafe in pregnancy and should not be taken as a supplement while breastfeeding. Carrot supplements (not the food itself) should be avoided in pregnancy and are not well studied while breastfeeding.

A small number of people have allergic reactions to carrot, celery, watercress, radish, or tomato—symptoms can range from oral itching and hives to, rarely, anaphylaxis. Infants fed excessive carrot juice have developed tooth decay, and raw watercress can carry parasitic contamination if not properly sourced.

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?
  • 5 of the 8 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Watercress, Spinach, Radish, Celery, Cauliflower.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; diabetes medications; lithium.
  • For scale: 727 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 this product, double-check with your doctor or pharmacist if you take warfarin or another blood thinner (anticoagulant), diabetes medications, lithium, the thyroid drug levothyroxine (Synthroid), the antidepressant venlafaxine (Effexor), blood pressure medications, the muscle relaxer chlorzoxazone, or any drugs metabolized by the liver enzyme CYP1A2. The interactions are moderate in severity and may affect how well your medications work.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with some supporting evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This vegetable-based shake may appeal to you if you're looking for whole-food nutrition, though the evidence for specific health benefits is limited. If you take warfarin, a diabetes medication, lithium, a thyroid medication, blood pressure drugs, venlafaxine, or muscle relaxers, you'll need to talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting it—the interactions are real and may require dose adjustments or closer monitoring.

If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your healthcare provider about this product first, especially if it contains concentrated forms of celery or watercress. Run your full medication list through the interaction checker on this page and review any hits with your own pharmacist.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

For each ingredient in Make Mom Proud Power Shake with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.

Celery8 drug types · 651 drugs

Anticoagulant/Antiplatelet Drugs

Theoretically, celery root might increase the risk of bleeding when taken with anticoagulant/antiplatelet drugs.
Celery root contains the constituents falcarinol and falcarindiol. Laboratory research suggests that these constituents can inhibit platelet aggregation. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, celery seed extract might have additive effects with antihypertensive drugs.
Clinical research suggests that taking celery seed extract may reduce daytime systolic blood pressure by about 12 mmHg compared to less than 1 mmHg with placebo.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Theoretically, celery might increase levels of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2.
In vitro and animal research suggests that constituents of celery can inhibit CYP1A2. This effect has not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Levothyroxine (Synthroid, Others)

Theoretically, celery seed might decrease the effects of levothyroxine.
Several cases of hypothyroidism with low T4 levels have been reported in people who were previously stabilized on levothyroxine and then started taking celery seed tablets. They presented with symptoms such as lethargy, bloating, and dry skin, and recovered when celery seed was stopped. However, celery stem and leaf has been associated with case reports of hyperthyroidism in patients with no pre-existing thyroid disorders.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Lithium

Theoretically, celery might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium due to potential diuretic effects.
Celery is thought to have diuretic properties. However, this effect has not been confirmed in humans.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Venlafaxine (Effexor)

Theoretically, celery root extract might increase blood levels of venlafaxine.
There is one case report of a patient who experienced medication-induced bipolar disorder after beginning to take celery root extract 1000 mg daily along with venlafaxine 75 mg and St. John's wort 600 mg daily. Symptoms included confusion, speech abnormalities, manic affect, and visual hallucinations. The plasma level of venlafaxine was 476.8 ng/mL (normal range 195-400 ng/mL). It is theorized that celery root increased venlafaxine levels by inhibiting cytochrome P450 2D6.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Acetaminophen (Tylenol, Others)

Theoretically, celery juice might increase the effects and side effects of acetaminophen.
Animal research suggests that concomitant use of celery juice plus acetaminophen prolongs the effects of acetaminophen. This effect has been attributed to a decrease in hepatic cytochrome P450 activity. However, other animal research shows that pretreatment with celery root extract protects against acetaminophen-induced acute liver failure. These effects have not been reported in humans.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Photosensitizing Drugs

Theoretically, celery might increase the risk of photosensitivity reactions when taken with photosensitizing drugs.
Laboratory research shows that celery contains photosensitizing agents such as phenols and psoralens.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Cauliflower1 drug type · 186 drugs

Cytochrome P450 1A2 (Cyp1A2) Substrates

Preliminary clinical evidence suggests that eating cruciferous vegetables, including broccoli, cauliflower, daikon radish sprouts, and cabbage, can increase cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) activity by 14% to 27%. Theoretically, cauliflower might increase the clearance and decrease the effects of drugs metabolized by CYP1A2. Some drugs metabolized by CYP1A2 include clozapine (Clozaril), cyclobenzaprine (Flexeril), fluvoxamine (Luvox), haloperidol (Haldol), imipramine (Tofranil), mexiletine (Mexitil), olanzapine (Zyprexa), pentazocine (Talwin), propranolol (Inderal), tacrine (Cognex), theophylline, zileuton (Zyflo), zolmitriptan (Zomig), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B

Spinach2 drug types · 88 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

There are claims that spinach leaves have hypoglycemic effects. Evidence from clinical research suggests that consumption of a spinach-rich meal reduces post-meal blood glucose levels. Theoretically, spinach might have additive effects with antidiabetes drugs and increase the risk of hypoglycemia. Monitor blood glucose levels closely. Dose adjustments might be necessary. Some antidiabetes drugs include glimepiride (Amaryl), glyburide (DiaBeta, Glynase PresTab, Micronase), insulin, pioglitazone (Actos), rosiglitazone (Avandia), and others.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Spinach contains vitamin K, which can interfere with the activity of warfarin.
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. Individuals using anticoagulants should consume a consistent daily amount of spinach to maintain the effect of anticoagulant therapy.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Black Radish1 drug type · 86 drugs

Antidiabetes Drugs

Theoretically, radish might increase the risk of hypoglycemia when taken with antidiabetes drugs.
Animal research shows that radish extract, juice, and sprouts can reduce glucose levels. Animal research also shows that radish root juice 300 mg/kg reduces fasting and postprandial blood glucose in a rat model of diabetes, with effects similar to glibenclamide.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D

Watercress3 drug types · 6 drugs

Chlorzoxazone (Parafon Forte, Paraflex)

Watercress might reduce the metabolism of chlorzoxazone and increase its effects and side effects. Clinical research in healthy volunteers shows that a single ingestion of watercress 50 grams increases the chlorzoxazone plasma concentration-time curve by about 56% and increases its half-life by about 53%.

Likelihood Probable Evidence B
Lithium

Watercress is thought to have diuretic properties. Theoretically, due to these potential diuretic effects, watercress might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.

Likelihood Probable Evidence D
Warfarin (Coumadin)

Watercress contains vitamin K. Consuming large amounts of watercress might antagonize the anticoagulant effects of warfarin.

Make Mom Proud Power Shake by Herb Stop: Common Questions

Does Make Mom Proud Power Shake by Herb Stop interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Make Mom Proud Power Shake has a known interaction with 727 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Make Mom Proud Power Shake contains 11 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 shake if I'm pregnant?
Some ingredients raise safety concerns in pregnancy. Watercress and celery seed are rated likely unsafe when taken as concentrated supplements in pregnancy, and high-dose carrot supplements should also be avoided—though eating these vegetables as whole foods is fine. Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this powder is safe for you personally.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
Celery supplement safety is not well studied while breastfeeding, so it's best avoided in concentrated form. Carrot and tomato supplements while breastfeeding are also less studied than the foods themselves. Ask your doctor or pharmacist whether this product is appropriate for you.
Can I take this if I'm allergic to vegetables?
Some people have allergic reactions to celery, carrot, watercress, radish, or tomato—symptoms can include oral itching, hives, swelling, and rarely anaphylaxis. If you have any food allergies, check the ingredient list carefully and talk to your doctor before trying this product.
Does this shake actually help with [health condition]?
The evidence isn't strong. Most of the vegetables in this shake—spinach, celery, watercress, kale, and tomato—don't have reliable evidence yet for benefits like blood sugar control, heart health, or cancer prevention. Carrot may help with vitamin A deficiency, but that's about it. Whole vegetables are nutritious, but don't expect proven cure-alls from this powder.
Is there a risk of tooth decay from this product?
Concentrated carrot products fed to infants in bottles have caused tooth damage, so this isn't for young babies. For older children and adults eating carrot as part of a balanced product, the risk is low, but good dental hygiene always matters.
What's actually in this shake?
It's a powder blend of 11 vegetables: spinach, kale, watercress, celery, carrot, tomato, cauliflower, black radish, green pea, leek, and brussel sprout, with no fillers or other inactive ingredients listed. One ingredient is in a proprietary blend, so the exact amount of each vegetable isn't disclosed.
