Our assessment
The evidence shows that Organifi Daily Turmeric contains calcium, a mineral with a well-documented role in health. Our assessment is that while calcium is essential for your body, you need to be aware of the specific risks and interactions associated with supplementation, as the data on this ingredient is clear about both benefits and potential harms.
How it works
Calcium functions as a key structural component for your bones, supporting bone mineralization and density. It also plays a critical role in neuromuscular relaxation, helping your muscles relax and your nerves signal properly [NIH ODS]. Think of calcium as the building block for your skeleton and a regulator for your nervous system.
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all products. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels of calcium 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] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
We recommend you be cautious with this product. Calcium can reduce the absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Because data on the exact amount of calcium in this specific product is not available, you should consult your doctor before using it, especially if you take any medications or have a history of kidney issues or heart disease.
