Brand: New Sun · Form: CAPSULE [E0159] On Market
Our assessment
Our assessment: The data provided for the New Sun Magnesium Blend is incomplete, as specific ingredient amounts and the brand name are not listed. We can only analyze the single ingredient listed in the NIH ODS data: Calcium. The evidence shows that calcium is critical for bone health, but it also carries notable risks that you should understand before supplementing [NIH ODS].
How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your skeletal system and nervous system. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it is essential for neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. Think of it as the key mineral that keeps your bones strong and your muscles and nerves communicating properly.
Safety profile
The FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, though specific reports for this blend are not available. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. 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]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Because we lack data on the magnesium content and the full ingredient list for this product, we cannot make a specific recommendation for the New Sun Magnesium Blend. If you are considering a calcium supplement, be aware of the potential risks and medication interactions. Data not available for the specific magnesium content or other ingredients in this product. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting a new supplement, especially if you take prescription medications [NIH ODS].
