Complete Ascentials Magnesium

Our assessment

The evidence shows that Complete Ascentials Magnesium is not a product with available data on its specific formulation. Our analysis focuses on the ingredient calcium, which is listed in the data. For calcium, the evidence supports its role in bone health, but the data also reveals significant safety considerations you need to be aware of [NIH ODS].

How it works

Think of calcium as a structural builder and signal messenger. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it helps your muscles relax and your nerves communicate properly [NIH ODS]. This is why calcium is essential for strong bones and a healthy nervous system.

Safety profile

FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, though specific reports for this product are not available. For calcium, the data shows that high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels in your 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 [NIH ODS]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].

Our recommendation

Data not available for a specific recommendation on Complete Ascentials Magnesium. If you are considering a calcium supplement, be aware of the potential risks and drug interactions. Always consult your healthcare provider before starting, especially if you take any medications or have a history of kidney disease or heart conditions [NIH ODS].
