Body Kitchen Peptide Fortified Collagen Unflavored
Brand: Body Kitchen · Form: POWDER [E0162] On Market
Our assessment
The evidence shows that Body Kitchen Peptide Fortified Collagen Unflavored contains calcium as a key ingredient. For you, this means the product may support bone density and muscle relaxation, but the data on collagen itself is limited here. We rely on the calcium content for our primary analysis [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder for your bones and a nerve signal regulator. It supports bone mineralization and helps your muscles relax after contracting. This mechanism is well-documented and applies to any supplement containing calcium [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA has received 592059 total adverse event reports across all dietary supplements, though specific reports for this product are not isolated in the data. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease, prostate cancer, and can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, and abnormal heart rhythms [NIH ODS] [FDA data]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline and fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
We recommend you take this supplement with caution. If you take any of the listed medications, separate your dose by at least 2 hours. Stick to the serving size on the label and do not exceed it, as high calcium levels can be dangerous. For personalized advice, consult your healthcare provider [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
