Data not available on the exact amount of calcium per serving from the provided label, so you must check the product label for precise dosing.
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder for your skeleton. It supports bone density and mineral deposition, which is essential for maintaining strong bones as you age [NIH ODS]. Additionally, calcium supports muscle relaxation and nerve signaling, helping your muscles and nerves function properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports for this product type. Some research suggests that high calcium intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. High levels of calcium in the blood and urine can cause several side effects, including 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].
Our recommendation
Before taking this supplement, check the product label for the exact calcium content per serving. If you are already taking a multivitamin or other supplements, calculate your total daily calcium intake from all sources. Do not exceed the tolerable upper intake level without consulting your healthcare provider. If you take any of the medications listed (such as thyroid medication or antibiotics), separate your calcium dose by at least 2 hours to avoid absorption issues [NIH ODS].
