Our assessment
Our assessment: The evidence shows that this product contains calcium, which is a mineral essential for bone health. However, the data for a "youthful beauty" collagen product specifically is not available. The calcium in this formula supports bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block — it is critical for bone density and mineral deposition, helping maintain strong bones as you age. It also supports muscle relaxation and nerve signaling throughout your body [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, though data specific to this product is not available. For calcium, safety concerns include that high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. High levels of calcium 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].
Our recommendation
Our recommendation: Since data on this specific collagen product is limited, rely on the known properties of calcium. Be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. You should separate calcium intake from these medications by at least two hours. Consult your healthcare provider before starting this supplement, especially if you have a history of kidney stones or heart conditions [NIH ODS].
