Our assessment
The evidence shows that this product contains calcium, a mineral essential for bone health. However, we cannot recommend this supplement for general use without specific data on its exact formulation or dosage per serving [NIH ODS]. Data for the specific ingredient levels in Pure Synergy SuperPure Turmeric is not available. Always check the label for the exact amount of calcium per serving.
How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body. It supports bone mineralization and density, and is crucial for neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. Think of it as the key building block that keeps your skeleton strong and your muscles functioning properly.
Safety profile
FDA received 592059 total adverse event reports across all supplements. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. 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]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
We recommend you do not take this supplement without first consulting your healthcare provider. Since the exact calcium content is unknown, you risk taking too much or too little. If you need a calcium supplement, choose a product with a clearly labeled dosage. Always take calcium supplements with food to improve absorption and separate them from other medications by at least two hours to avoid interactions [NIH ODS].
