Nature's Measure B Super Complex

Our assessment
The evidence shows that the calcium in this B Super Complex provides a foundational mineral for bone health, but it is not a substitute for a complete multivitamin. Data on the specific B vitamin complex formula is limited, so we focus on the calcium content provided [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block for your skeleton and a key regulator for your nerves and muscles. It supports bone mineralization and helps your muscles relax after contraction [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports for supplements overall, but specific data for this product is not available. For calcium, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Very high levels can cause constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and poor kidney function [NIH ODS]. Calcium can reduce absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Start by assessing your total daily calcium intake from food and other supplements. Do not exceed the Tolerable Upper Intake Level without medical supervision. Take this product separately from thyroid or antibiotic medications by at least 2 hours [NIH ODS].
