Our assessment
The evidence shows that BodyTech CLA Carnitine Collagen Blue Ice Pop contains Calcium as a key ingredient. Our assessment is that this product may support bone health, but you need to be aware of the specific risks and interactions associated with calcium supplementation [NIH ODS].
How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body. It supports bone mineralization by helping deposit minerals into your bone density, and it also plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation, helping your muscles relax and nerves signal properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports for products in this category. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. High levels of calcium in the 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
