Our assessment
The evidence shows that this product contains calcium, which is a mineral with well-documented benefits for bone health. However, the data provided does not confirm the exact dose of calcium in this specific spray formulation, so we must rely on general guidance for the ingredient itself [NIH ODS].
How it works
Calcium is a master regulator for your skeleton and nervous system. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it also plays a key role in neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 adverse event reports for all supplements in this category. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Very 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 [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Because the exact calcium content in this spray is not provided in the data, we cannot make a specific dosing recommendation. If you choose to use this product, be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin. Take it at a separate time from those medications [NIH ODS].
