Our assessment
The evidence shows that Sundown Complete Omega is a supplement containing calcium as a key ingredient. Our assessment is that calcium is well-documented for its role in bone health, but the specific formulation of this product requires careful consideration of your individual needs [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block for your bones. It supports bone density and mineral deposition, and it also plays a key role in neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific data for Sundown Complete Omega is not available. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels in the blood and urine can cause 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].
Our recommendation
We recommend you check total calcium intake from all sources before adding this supplement. Calcium can reduce the absorption of medications including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin. Take it separately from these medications [NIH ODS]. Data on the specific omega content of this product is not available.
