Our assessment
The data shows that the key active ingredient in Paradise Collagen Extreme is calcium. Our assessment is that while calcium is essential for bone health, the supplement carries significant risks that require careful consideration. The evidence does not support taking high-dose calcium supplements without a clear medical need [NIH ODS].
How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it also helps your muscles relax and your nerves send signals properly [NIH ODS].

The FDA has received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports for products in this category, though specific reports for Paradise Collagen Extreme are not available.

Our recommendation
We recommend you get your calcium from food sources first. If you take this supplement, be aware it can reduce the absorption of medications including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin. You should take calcium supplements at a different time than these medications [NIH ODS].
