Brand: ProCaps Laboratories · Form: CAPSULE [E0159] On Market
Our assessment
The evidence shows that this product contains calcium, a mineral essential for bone health, but the data does not provide specific ingredient amounts for this formulation. Our assessment: without knowing the exact dosage per serving, it is difficult to determine if this B-complex provides a meaningful or safe level of calcium. You should check the label for the exact amount of calcium per serving [NIH ODS].
How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body. It supports bone mineralization by helping deposit minerals into your skeleton, and it aids neuromuscular relaxation, which is critical for proper nerve signaling and muscle function [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplement categories, though the number specific to this product is not available. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Extremely high blood and urine levels can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS] [FDA data]. Calcium can also reduce absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Data not available for the specific calcium amount in this product. Because safety concerns exist with high calcium intake, you should compare the label's calcium content to the RDA of 1,000–1,200 mg daily for most adults. If you take medications that interact with calcium, separate doses by at least two hours. For personalized advice, consult your healthcare provider [NIH ODS].
