Our assessment
The evidence shows that your Mindbodygreen Probiotic+ product contains calcium, a mineral essential for bone health. However, the data available does not provide specific clinical trials or dosage information for this particular probiotic blend. Our assessment is that while the calcium component is well-documented, you need to be aware of the risks associated with high intake and potential medication interactions [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder for your bones. It supports bone density and mineral deposition, making your skeleton stronger. It also plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation, helping your muscles relax and your nerves send signals properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
The FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports for all supplements, but specific data for this product is not available. For calcium, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. 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 [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Start by checking the label for the exact calcium dosage per serving. If you take medications such as bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, or phenytoin, take this supplement at a different time of day to avoid reduced absorption [NIH ODS]. Do not exceed the recommended daily allowance without consulting your healthcare provider.
