RepHresh Pro-B Probiotic

Our assessment

The evidence shows that RepHresh Pro-B Probiotic contains calcium, a mineral essential for bone health and nerve function. However, we must be clear that the specific probiotic strains and their intended benefits for vaginal health are not detailed in the data provided. Our assessment is focused strictly on the calcium content, as that is the only ingredient with supporting data [NIH ODS].

How it works

Think of calcium as a structural builder for your bones. It supports bone density and mineral deposition, which is critical for maintaining a strong skeleton. Additionally, calcium supports muscle relaxation and nerve signaling, helping your body communicate effectively [NIH ODS].

Safety profile

Safety data is limited for this specific product. FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific counts for RepHresh Pro-B are not available. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. 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 [FDA data] [NIH ODS].

Our recommendation

We recommend you consult with a healthcare provider before starting this supplement, especially if you take medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, or phenytoin, as calcium can reduce their absorption [NIH ODS]. Without specific data on the probiotic strains in this product, we cannot endorse it for its intended use. Data not available for the specific probiotic benefits of RepHresh Pro-B [NIH ODS].
