Our assessment
Our assessment: Based on the data provided, Amen Mood Probiotic + contains Calcium, a mineral that supports bone health and nerve function.

The total number of FDA adverse event reports for this product category is 592,059, though this number includes all reports for the brand and is not specific to this single supplement [FDA data].
How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body. It supports bone mineralization, helping to build and maintain strong bones, and it aids neuromuscular relaxation, which is critical for proper muscle function and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
High calcium intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Side effects from high blood or urine levels of calcium include 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]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Specific adverse event counts for this exact product are not available in the provided data.
Our recommendation
If you are taking any of the medications listed above, you should separate your calcium supplement from those doses by at least two hours, unless directed otherwise by your doctor. Do not exceed the recommended dose on the label without medical advice, as high calcium levels carry significant risks. Data not available on the specific amount of calcium in this supplement, so review the label carefully. For personalized advice, consult your healthcare provider [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
