Brand: Nordic Naturals · Form: SOFTGEL CAPSULE [E0161] On Market
Our assessment
Our assessment: Nordic Naturals Omega-3D Lemon is a combination supplement, but the data provided only includes information on one of its likely ingredients: calcium. Based on the data available, we cannot evaluate the omega-3 or vitamin D components of this product. For the calcium component, the evidence shows it plays a critical role in bone health, but you need to be aware of significant safety considerations and potential medication interactions.
How it works
The calcium in this supplement supports your body in two key ways. First, it acts as a building block for bone mineralization, helping to maintain bone density. Second, it supports neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling, which is essential for your muscles and nerves to function properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
Data not available for the specific number of adverse event reports linked to this product. However, the FDA has received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all dietary supplements. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Very high levels in the blood and urine can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Before taking this supplement, check the label to confirm the exact dosage of calcium, omega-3s, and vitamin D. If you take any medications, be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Because the data provided does not include the specific amounts or safety profile for the omega-3 and vitamin D in this product, we cannot give a complete recommendation. Proceed with caution and consult your healthcare provider to ensure this supplement is safe and appropriate for your individual health needs.
