Our assessment
Our assessment: The available data does not provide specific evidence on the benefits or risks of NutriCology ProGreens Capsules with Advanced Probiotic Formula itself. The only ingredient with provided data is calcium, and the evidence shows that calcium supports bone density and muscle relaxation [NIH ODS]. However, we cannot confirm the amount of calcium in this product or its effectiveness based on the information provided.
How it works
Think of calcium as a key structural component for your skeleton and a critical regulator for your nerves. It supports bone mineralization, which is the process of depositing minerals to keep your bones dense and strong. It also helps your muscles relax and your nerves signal properly [NIH ODS]. Without this data, we cannot describe how the specific probiotic or other ingredients in this product work.
Safety profile
Data not available for this product specifically. For the ingredient calcium, the data shows that very high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels in the blood and urine can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS]. The total number of adverse event reports across all supplements in the FDA database is 592,059, but no specific side effect reports for this product are listed [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Our recommendation: We cannot recommend this product based on the data provided. The information is insufficient to determine its contents, benefits, or risks. If you are considering a greens powder or probiotic, we advise you to consult your pharmacist or doctor and look for products with transparent labeling and published clinical studies. For calcium needs, focus on dietary sources and discuss any supplementation with your healthcare provider to avoid potential interactions with medications like bisphosphonates or antibiotics [NIH ODS].
