Our assessment
The evidence shows that MyTrition Beauty Collagen contains calcium, a mineral with specific benefits and important safety considerations. Our assessment: calcium contributes to bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation, but you need to be aware of the potential risks from high intake [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a foundational building block for your bones and a key player in your nervous system. It supports bone density and mineral deposition, and it helps your muscles relax and your nerves send signals properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all products. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. 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] [FDA data]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Side effect report counts specific to this product are not available.
Our recommendation
Start by evaluating your total calcium intake from all sources, including food and other supplements. Be aware that high levels carry serious risks, and check with your doctor if you take any of the medications listed above. Data not available on the specific collagen or other ingredients in this product, so consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice [NIH ODS].
