Our assessment
Our assessment: This product contains calcium, and the evidence shows that calcium is essential for bone health, but you need to be careful with dosing. The data does not provide a specific daily value for this product, so you must check the label for exact amounts [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a building block for your skeleton. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it also plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
The FDA has received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific data for this product is not available. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High blood and urine levels can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Check the label for the exact calcium dose per serving. Calcium can reduce absorption of medications including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Take calcium at a different time than these medications. Data not available for a specific recommended dose from this product's label.
