Newflower Farmers Markets Amino Acid Chelated Magnesium
Brand: Newflower Farmers Markets · Form: TABLET [E0155] On Market
Our assessment
The evidence shows that while the product is labeled as a magnesium supplement, the only ingredient data provided is for calcium. Our assessment is that you should not use this product as a reliable source of magnesium, as the specific form and dosage of magnesium are not confirmed in the available data. For calcium, the data confirms it supports bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder and a nerve signaler. It supports bone density and mineral deposition, and it helps your muscles relax and your nerves send signals properly [NIH ODS]. Because the product label lists "Amino Acid Chelated Magnesium" but the ingredient data only covers calcium, we cannot describe how the magnesium component functions based on the provided information.
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports for all dietary supplements. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High blood and urine levels of calcium can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent need to urinate, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS]. Side effect report counts for this specific product are not available in the data provided.
Our recommendation
We do not recommend relying on this product for magnesium supplementation because the data does not confirm the magnesium content or its specific effects. If you need a calcium supplement, be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Consult your pharmacist or doctor to choose a clearly labeled supplement. Data on the specific magnesium form and dosage is not available.
