Our assessment
The evidence shows that MRI Performance Zn 30 Zinc is a straightforward zinc supplement. For the specific ingredient zinc, data is not available in the provided materials regarding its mechanism, safety, or interactions. However, the product contains calcium per the label, and we can assess that ingredient. Our assessment: calcium is essential for bone health, but you need to be careful with dosing and potential interactions [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder and a signaler. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it also helps your muscles relax and your nerves send signals properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available. For calcium, some research suggests high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels of calcium in your 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
Since data is not available for zinc's specific dosing or interactions in this dataset, our recommendation focuses on calcium. Do not exceed the tolerable upper intake level for calcium without medical supervision. Be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin — take these medications at least two hours apart from your supplement [NIH ODS].
