What Power 4000 is
Power 4000 is a herbal dietary supplement for adult men, sold as a sealed white bottle holding six capsules. The Supplement Facts panel sets a serving at one capsule and gives the bottle six servings, and each of those capsules carries a 1,200 mg proprietary herbal blend. The bottle is distributed by Power Pills, Inc of Hallandale, Florida, and the front of the label is printed under that maker's "Maximum Performance" banner.
Physically it is a small opaque white screw-top bottle with a foil band reading "Sealed For Your Protection" across the cap, a silver-and-red front label, and a back panel carrying the Supplement Facts table, the directions, the warning text and the barcode. It sits in the Supplements for Men range at Gear Isle among other herbal capsules such as the Zen Power 3000 line.
What's inside
Every capsule holds a single 1,200 mg proprietary herbal blend, and the panel names eight botanicals inside it without breaking out a separate milligram figure for any one of them. That is normal for a proprietary blend, and it means the only honest statement anyone can make about the split is that the label does not give one. Here is what the eight actually are.
- Tribulus — Tribulus terrestris, a low, spreading vine that grows in warm dry ground on several continents and turns up under the common name puncture vine. Its fruit and leaf have a long history in Ayurvedic and traditional Chinese preparations, and it is one of the most widely used botanicals in men's supplement formulas.
- Cordyceps Militaris — a bright orange, club-shaped fungus, now grown commercially on grain substrate rather than collected from the wild. It is the cultivated relative of the Cordyceps long brewed into tonics and broths in Chinese and Tibetan practice.
- Ginger Root — the rhizome of Zingiber officinale, the same knobby root sold in every grocery produce aisle and used across South and East Asian cooking. In supplement form it is usually a dried, powdered extract.
- Cnidium and Monnier Extract — printed on consecutive lines of the panel. Cnidium monnieri is a white-flowered plant in the carrot family, native to China, whose small dried fruit has been used in traditional Chinese herbal preparations for centuries.
- Theobromine — a naturally occurring compound found in cacao beans, and the reason dark chocolate tastes bitter. It belongs to the same chemical family as caffeine but is a distinct substance.
- Rhodiola — Rhodiola rosea, a thick-rooted flowering plant from the cold, high, rocky places of Scandinavia, Siberia and the Arctic. It is a fixture of Russian and Nordic folk herbalism and a common entry in modern adaptogen blends.
- Avena Sativa Extract — an extract of the common oat, the ordinary cereal grain, which has a long history in European herbal tradition well outside the breakfast bowl.
Beyond the blend, the panel lists the capsule's own construction ingredients: FD&C Red #40, titanium dioxide, cellulose, magnesium stearate and silica. Those are the colouring, the opacifier, the capsule bulk and the flow agents, not part of the herbal content. If you avoid artificial colour additives, FD&C Red #40 is the line to note.
For general background on how botanical supplements are made and regulated, the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements publishes a plain-language fact sheet on botanical dietary supplements, and NCCIH maintains a herbs at a glance reference covering individual plants. Neither is about this product and neither endorses it; they are simply the reference material worth having open.

How to use it
The label directions read: take one capsule 45 minutes prior to sexual activity. That is the whole of the instruction printed on the bottle.
The label then sets a hard ceiling under its own Caution heading: do not exceed more than one capsule in four days, and not to be used by individuals under the age of 18 years old. That four-day spacing is a limit on how often a capsule may be taken, not a description of anything the product does — read it as the maximum frequency the maker is willing to put its name to. With six capsules in the bottle and that spacing observed, this is a supply meant to be spread out rather than worked through.
The bottle carries no separate storage instruction beyond keeping it away from children, and the foil cap seal is there so an unopened bottle can be told from an opened one.
Who it's for
Power 4000 is for adults aged 18 and over, and the label states that restriction twice. A six-capsule bottle suits someone who already knows how a herbal capsule of this kind sits with them and wants a small supply on hand, rather than someone buying a single capsule to try once.
It is not for everyone. The label rules out use by anyone with a serious medical condition, anyone taking nitrates, nitroglycerin or prescription medication, and anyone with heart problems or high blood pressure. If any of that describes you, the label's own instruction is to speak to your physician first — and that is the right order to do it in.
Good to know
- Read the warning panel before the marketing. The back of the bottle carries the nitrate and nitroglycerin interaction warning in full. It is there for a reason and it is the most important text on the package.
- Herbal does not mean inert. Botanical ingredients can interact with prescription medication. NCCIH covers this ground in its overview of dietary and herbal supplements, and the NIH ODS consumer guide on what you need to know about dietary supplements is worth half an hour before a first purchase in this category.
- Keep out of reach of children. Printed on the label, and worth repeating.
- Artificial colour. The capsule shell contains FD&C Red #40 and titanium dioxide.
- No California Proposition 65 warning is printed on this packaging.
Frequently Asked Questions
How many capsules come in a bottle of Power 4000?
Six. The front label prints "6 Capsules" directly beneath the product name, and the Supplement Facts panel counts one capsule as a serving with six servings to the bottle.
Does the label say how much of each herb is in the blend?
No — the panel gives a single combined figure of 1,200 mg for the whole proprietary herbal blend and lists the eight botanicals beneath it with no individual amounts. That is how proprietary blends are normally declared, and it means nobody outside the manufacturer can state the split. Anyone who quotes you a milligram figure for the tribulus or the rhodiola in this product is guessing.
How often does the label allow a capsule to be taken?
Not more than one capsule in any four-day period, according to the Caution text on the bottle. The directions place the capsule 45 minutes before sexual activity, and the four-day spacing is the maximum frequency the maker specifies.
Who makes Power 4000, and what is the barcode on the bottle?
Power Pills, Inc of Hallandale, Florida is named as the distributor on the back panel, directly beside the UPC, which reads 697521950121. Those two identifiers are the reliable way to confirm you are looking at this exact bottle rather than a similarly named product.
How is a Power 4000 order packaged for delivery?
Discreetly. The packing won't say anything about the contents. It will not show the Gear Isle name.
Can I return this bottle if it turns out not to suit me?
Yes, subject to the conditions on our returns page, which sets out the time limits and the condition the item needs to be in. Check it before opening the bottle rather than after, because the condition requirement is the part that most often catches people out.
