Our assessment
The evidence shows that AdvoCare CorePlex With Iron is a multivitamin and mineral supplement. Our assessment focuses on the calcium content, as that is the only ingredient with provided data. Calcium is essential for bone health, but the data does not specify the exact amount in this product, so we cannot confirm if it meets your daily needs [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder for your bones and a signal messenger for your nerves and muscles. It supports bone density through mineralization and helps your muscles relax and nerves communicate properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific data for this product is not available. For calcium specifically, very high intakes can lead to constipation, nausea, weight loss, frequent urination, and abnormal heart rhythms. There is also some research suggesting high calcium intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. Calcium can reduce the absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline and fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Data on the specific calcium dose in AdvoCare CorePlex With Iron is not available. We recommend you review the product label to check the calcium content. If you take any medications, separate your dose by at least 2 hours to avoid absorption issues [NIH ODS].
