How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body’s structural framework. It supports bone mineralization and density, and is critical for neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. You need this mineral every day to keep your bones strong and your muscles functioning properly.
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplement products. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. Side effects from very high blood levels include 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]. Calcium can also reduce absorption of certain medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline and fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].

You should consult your healthcare provider before starting this product, especially if you take prescription medications or have a history of kidney problems or heart disease [NIH ODS].
