Our assessment
The evidence shows that EZ Melts Folate 1,667 mcg DFE Orange Blast is a B-vitamin supplement, but the specific data provided focuses on calcium. For the ingredient calcium, our assessment is that it is a well-studied mineral essential for bone health, though the data provided does not cover folate specifically. You should be aware that high calcium intakes from supplements may carry risks [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder — it supports bone mineralization and density, and also plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. For this specific product, data on how the folate ingredient works is not available.
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements. For calcium specifically, high levels 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. Some research also suggests high calcium intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
We recommend you do not exceed the tolerable upper intake level for calcium without medical supervision. Be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Consult your healthcare provider before starting this supplement, as data specific to the folate ingredient in this product is not available.
