Our assessment
The evidence shows that the primary active ingredient in Paradise Turmeric is calcium, a mineral essential for bone health and nerve function. For a general audience, calcium is a well-studied supplement, but it is not a substitute for turmeric. Our assessment is that while calcium supports bone density, you should be aware of the specific risks and interactions associated with high intake [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder for your skeleton. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it is also critical for neuromuscular relaxation and proper nerve signaling. This means it helps your muscles relax after contracting and ensures your nerves send messages correctly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 adverse event reports for this product category. Specific side effects from high calcium levels include constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent need to urinate, and abnormal heart rhythms. Some research also suggests that high calcium intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Data not available regarding the specific dose of calcium in Paradise Turmeric. Because calcium can reduce the absorption of medications such as bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, and levothyroxine, you should take this supplement at least two hours apart from those drugs. We recommend consulting your healthcare provider before starting, especially if you have a history of kidney stones or heart conditions [NIH ODS].
