Our assessment
The evidence shows that this product, Oceanblue Professional Omega-3 2100 Natural Orange Flavor, contains calcium as an ingredient. Our assessment is that while calcium is essential for health, you should be aware of the specific risks and interactions associated with supplementation. Data not available on the specific amount of calcium per serving in this product, so you must consult the label for exact dosing.
How it works
Calcium plays a critical role in your body as a mineral responsible for bone mineralization, helping to support bone density and mineral deposition. It also supports neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. Think of it as a key nutrient for both your structural framework and your nervous system.
Safety profile
The total adverse event reports for products in this category submitted to the FDA is 592,059 [FDA data]. Specific safety data for calcium includes that 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. Some research also suggests that high calcium intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Our recommendation is to check the product label for the exact calcium content and compare it to your total daily intake from food and other supplements. Because calcium can reduce the absorption of medications including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin, you should take this supplement at a different time than any of those medications [NIH ODS]. Consult your pharmacist or doctor before starting, especially if you have a history of kidney stones or heart conditions.
