Our assessment
The evidence shows that the calcium component in Nature's Way Turmeric Complex is well-documented for its role in bone health, but the overall product data is limited. We can only assess the calcium ingredient based on the provided data, as information on other ingredients in this specific complex is not available.
How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body. It supports bone mineralization, helping to maintain strong bone density, and plays a key role in neuromuscular relaxation, which allows your muscles to relax and your nerves to signal properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplement categories. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Signs of excessive calcium include poor muscle tone, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [FDA data] [NIH ODS]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, certain antibiotics, and levothyroxine [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
You should be aware that this product contains calcium, which has well-established benefits and risks. However, because data on the full Nature's Way Turmeric Complex formula is not available, we cannot make a specific recommendation for this product. Consult your healthcare provider to determine if this supplement is appropriate for your individual health needs and medication regimen [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
