Garden of Life Multi-Sourced Collagen Turmeric Apple Cinnamon
Brand: Garden of Life · Form: POWDER [E0162]
Our assessment
The evidence shows that while Garden of Life Multi-Sourced Collagen Turmeric Apple Cinnamon is marketed as a wellness product, the only ingredient with substantial health data from the provided information is calcium. You should not expect significant benefits from the collagen or turmeric components based on the data available here, as no specific studies or mechanisms for those ingredients were provided.
How it works
Calcium in this product supports bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation, meaning it helps maintain bone density and supports normal muscle and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. For the collagen and turmeric ingredients, specific mechanisms of action are not available from the data provided.
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available. For calcium, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. High blood and urine calcium levels 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 absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Side effects for collagen and turmeric are not available from the data provided.
Our recommendation
If you are taking this product for calcium, be aware of the potential interactions with medications and the risks of excessive intake. For specific benefits from collagen or turmeric, data is not available to support a recommendation. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement, especially if you take prescription medications.
