How it works
Calcium works as a master regulator for your body. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it is crucial for neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. Think of it as the building block your body uses to keep your skeletal system strong and your muscles functioning properly.
Safety profile
High calcium intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. Very high levels of calcium in your 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 also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Specific side effect report counts for this product are not available.
Our recommendation
Start by evaluating your total calcium intake from food and other supplements. Do not exceed the recommended dietary allowance without medical supervision. Be aware of potential medication interactions, and consult your doctor before taking this product if you have a history of kidney stones, heart disease, or prostate cancer [NIH ODS].
