Our assessment
The evidence shows that Oceanblue Pur Omega contains calcium, a mineral essential for bone health. Our assessment is that while calcium is critical for your body, you need to be very careful with dosing and potential interactions with other medications.
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder for your bones and a signal conductor for your nerves. It supports bone density and mineral deposition, and it helps with muscle relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA has received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements. For calcium specifically, very high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. Side effects of high calcium levels 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].
Our recommendation
Start by checking your current calcium intake from food and other supplements. If you take this product, take it separately from any medications listed above by at least two hours. Data on the exact dosage per serving for Oceanblue Pur Omega is not available, so consult your healthcare provider to determine if this supplement is right for you [NIH ODS].
