Good 'N Natural Deodorized Garlic 500 mg
Brand: Good 'N Natural · Form: CAPSULE [E0159]
Our assessment
The evidence shows that this Good 'N Natural Deodorized Garlic 500 mg supplement is not supported by the data provided. The product is labeled as containing garlic, but the only ingredient data available is for calcium. Data not available for garlic-specific effects or benefits. This creates a critical gap in information for you to make an informed decision.
How it works
Based on the provided data, the ingredient listed is calcium. Calcium supports bone mineralization by helping deposit minerals into bone tissue and promotes neuromuscular relaxation by aiding nerve signaling and muscle function [NIH ODS]. However, this mechanism does not match the product's label claim of being a garlic supplement.
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements in the database. For calcium, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels in blood and urine can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent need to urinate, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS]. Calcium can reduce absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Data not available for garlic-specific side effects or report counts.
Our recommendation
We cannot recommend this product based on the available data. The label indicates deodorized garlic, but the only ingredient information provided is for calcium, creating a mismatch. Data not available for garlic dosage, efficacy, or safety. Consult your healthcare provider for a supplement that matches its label claims and has complete supporting data.
