Brand: NuMedica · Form: LIQUID, SUPPLEMENT FORM [E0165] On Market
Our assessment
Our assessment: The evidence shows that NuMedica Liposomal Hydroxy B12 is a supplement intended to deliver vitamin B12. However, based on the data provided, the active ingredient listed is Calcium, not B12. The data on Calcium indicates it supports bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS]. Without specific data on Hydroxy B12, we cannot assess the efficacy of this specific product.
How it works
The data describes Calcium as supporting bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation, meaning it helps maintain bone density and supports muscle relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. For the intended B12 ingredient, specific mechanism data is not available.
Safety profile
For the Calcium listed in the data, safety concerns include that high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High blood and urine levels of calcium 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]. The FDA has received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports for all supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Our recommendation: Data not available to support a specific recommendation for NuMedica Liposomal Hydroxy B12. If you are considering this for B12 deficiency, consult your healthcare provider, as the provided data does not confirm the B12 content or efficacy. For calcium, be aware that high intakes carry significant risks [NIH ODS].
