Cellucor Alpha Amino Icy Blue Razz
Brand: Cellucor · Form: POWDER [E0162] On Market
Our assessment
The evidence shows that Cellucor Alpha Amino Icy Blue Razz contains calcium, a mineral important for bone health and muscle function. However, the data available is limited to this single ingredient, and specific benefits for the full product formulation are not established. The total number of FDA adverse event reports for all supplement products is 592059, but data specific to this product is not available [FDA data].
How it works
Calcium supports bone mineralization, helping maintain bone density, and aids neuromuscular relaxation, which is important for proper muscle and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. Think of calcium as a key signal that tells your muscles to relax after contracting, which is critical during and after exercise [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
High calcium intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer in some research. Signs of excessive calcium in the blood or urine include poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS]. Calcium can also reduce absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline and fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Do not exceed the recommended serving on the label. If you take thyroid medication or antibiotics, separate your calcium intake by at least 2 hours [NIH ODS]. For most adults, a balanced diet provides adequate calcium, and supplements should only be used to fill a verified gap. Data not available on the complete safety profile of the full product blend.
