Nordic Naturals Omega-3D Lemon
Brand: Nordic Naturals · Form: SOFTGEL CAPSULE [E0161]
Our assessment
The evidence shows that Nordic Naturals Omega-3D Lemon is a combination supplement. Our assessment focuses on the key mineral ingredient, calcium, listed in the data. The data confirms that calcium is essential for bone density and neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS]. However, the data does not provide the exact amount of calcium in this specific product, so we cannot verify the dose you would receive.
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder and signal messenger for your body. It supports bone mineralization, helping to build and maintain strong bones, and it plays a critical role in nerve signaling and muscle relaxation [NIH ODS]. Without adequate calcium, your body may pull it from your bones, which can weaken them over time.
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available. From the calcium data, you should be aware that high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Very high levels can cause constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, abnormal heart rhythms, and poor kidney function [NIH ODS]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Because the exact calcium content in Nordic Naturals Omega-3D Lemon is not provided in the data, we cannot recommend a specific dose for this product. If you are considering this supplement, check the label for the precise calcium amount. For general calcium needs, the data suggests taking supplements separately from the medications listed above to avoid interactions. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting a new supplement regimen [NIH ODS].
