The evidence shows that Kyolic Aged Garlic Extract Formula 107 is a dietary supplement. Our assessment is based on the ingredient data for calcium, which is listed on the label. For the specific benefits of aged garlic extract, data is not available in the provided information. For calcium, the data confirms it supports bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder and a nervous system messenger — it helps maintain bone density and supports muscle relaxation and nerve signaling throughout your body [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements. For calcium specifically, high intakes might 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 several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Start by checking your total calcium intake from all sources. If you take this supplement, take it separately from other medications by at least two hours. Be aware that high calcium intakes carry risks, so do not exceed the recommended daily allowance without speaking to your healthcare provider [NIH ODS].
