How it works
Think of calcium as a structural pillar for your body. It supports bone mineralization and density, and is essential for proper neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, though data specific to this product is not available. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High calcium levels in 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] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
You should be cautious with calcium supplements. They can reduce the absorption of medications including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. We recommend discussing your individual calcium needs with your healthcare provider before starting this product, as data on this specific concentrate is not available.
