HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Total CMO by Nutri-West

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

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.

Total CMO contains 2 active ingredients: molybdenum, a trace mineral, and cetyl myristoleate. Molybdenum is a cofactor for several enzymes involved in metabolism and detoxification.

The inactive ingredients are tricalcium phosphate, dicalcium phosphate, silicate, microcrystalline cellulose, rice extract, and rice bran extract.

Does it work?

Strong 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 Molybdenum's overall clinical evidence instead.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports Molybdenum 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 ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Molybdenum deficiency — rated "Likely Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Molybdenum is likely effective for treating molybdenum deficiency, which is rare in people eating a typical diet. For acne, iron deficiency anemia, asthma, osteoporosis, and esophageal cancer, the evidence for molybdenum is insufficient to rate.

We don't have effectiveness data on file for cetyl myristoleate.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Molybdenum

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.

Molybdenum is generally well tolerated when taken in amounts up to the safe upper limit of 2 mg per day. High-dose supplements are rarely necessary and may cause problems — stick to food sources and standard supplement doses unless your doctor advises otherwise.

One case report described severe neurological effects (psychosis, seizures, and brain damage) from very high doses taken over a short period, though this is extremely rare. For pregnancy, molybdenum from food and prenatal vitamins is likely safe, but high-dose supplements should be avoided without medical advice.

Lactation data suggests dietary amounts are likely safe. We don't have safety data on file for cetyl myristoleate.

Meds to double-check

Known Interaction Concern · database check
No known interactions

No medication interactions are currently documented for the matched ingredients — that isn't a guarantee none exist.

Why this rating?
  • None of the 1 matched ingredient has a documented medication interaction on file.
