Our assessment
The evidence shows that Nutrex Research Black Series Amino Drive Wild Cherry Citrus contains calcium as a key ingredient. Our assessment is that while calcium is essential for health, you need to be aware of the specific risks and interactions associated with supplementation. Data on the product’s specific amino acid profile or other ingredients is not available.
How it works
Calcium supports bone mineralization, helping to maintain bone density and mineral deposition. It also plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation, aiding muscle relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA has received a total of 592059 adverse event reports across all products. For calcium specifically, the data shows that 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].
Our recommendation
You should be cautious with calcium supplementation. The data indicates that calcium can reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. We recommend consulting your healthcare provider before using this product, especially if you take any of these medications or have a history of kidney issues or heart disease.
