Our assessment
The evidence shows that Melaleuca Vitality Multivitamin & Mineral Men is a dietary supplement containing calcium, a mineral essential for bone health. Our assessment is based strictly on the data provided for the ingredient calcium. For other ingredients in this multivitamin, specific data is not available.
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block for your bones. It supports bone density and mineral deposition through a process called bone mineralization. Additionally, it plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation, which helps your muscles relax and your nerves signal properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
The FDA has received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplement categories. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels 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]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of medications such as bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Given that specific dosing information for this product is not available, we recommend you consult your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement. If you take any medications, be aware of the potential interaction with calcium. For personalized advice, a healthcare professional can review your diet and health history to determine if this multivitamin is appropriate for you [NIH ODS].
