Brand: Herb Pharm · Form: LIQUID, SUPPLEMENT FORM [E0165]
Our assessment
The evidence shows that Herb Pharm Good Mood Tonic Compound contains Calcium as an ingredient. Our assessment is that while calcium is essential for bone health and nerve function, relying on this specific tonic for mood support is not directly supported by the data provided. You should be aware that the total FDA adverse event reports for all products is 592,059, but specific data for this tonic is not available [FDA data].
How it works
Calcium supports your body through bone mineralization, helping to maintain bone density and mineral deposition. It also plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation, supporting muscle relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
Data not available for this specific product. However, for calcium generally, some research suggests that high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels of calcium 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].
Our recommendation
We recommend you consult with a healthcare provider before using this tonic, as data on its specific effects and safety is not available. If you are taking any medications, be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
