The evidence shows that Nature's Plus Quick Body Cleanse Alkacia Alkalizing Fiber contains calcium as a key ingredient.

How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body's structure and function. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it helps with neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. This means calcium plays a role in keeping your bones strong and your muscles functioning properly.
Safety profile
The FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available. For calcium specifically, some research suggests that high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. High levels of calcium in the 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]. Additionally, calcium can reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Proceed with caution. Because we lack data on the full ingredient profile and specific dosage of this product, we cannot provide a confident recommendation for its use. If you choose to take this supplement, monitor your total calcium intake from all sources and be aware of potential medication interactions. Consult your healthcare provider before starting this product, especially if you take any prescription medications [NIH ODS].
