Nordic Naturals Omega Vision
Brand: Nordic Naturals · Form: SOFTGEL CAPSULE [E0161] On Market
Our assessment
The evidence shows that Nordic Naturals Omega Vision combines a multivitamin-mineral base with omega-3s, but the key active ingredient with the most robust data is calcium. For you, this product could be a convenient option if you need to support bone health and eye health simultaneously, but you must be aware of the specific risks and interactions tied to its calcium content [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder for your bones and a signal messenger for your nerves. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it helps your muscles relax and your nerves send signals properly [NIH ODS]. While the product also supports eye health, the data provided does not specify the mechanism for the vision-related ingredients.
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements, though specific reports for this product are not available. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High blood and urine calcium levels 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]. You should be especially cautious if you take bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, or phenytoin, as calcium can reduce their absorption [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Data not available on the exact calcium dose in this product, so you cannot confirm if it meets or exceeds safe limits. Do not take this supplement if you are already on a calcium-containing multivitamin or taking any of the listed medications without consulting your doctor. If you proceed, take it with food and separate from any prescription medications by at least 2 hours [NIH ODS].
