How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator in your body. It supports bone mineralization and density by depositing minerals into your skeleton, and it also helps your muscles relax and your nerves send signals properly [NIH ODS].

FDA has received 592,059 total adverse event reports for this product category. The data shows that high calcium levels can cause constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent need to urinate, and abnormal heart rhythms [FDA data] [NIH ODS].
