Biovea Panax Ginseng 200 mg
Brand: Biovea · Form: CAPSULE [E0159]
Our assessment
The evidence shows that Biovea Panax Ginseng 200 mg is a supplement you should approach with caution. While ginseng is a popular herbal remedy, the specific data for this product is limited. For the active ingredient, calcium, which is listed on the label, the data confirms its role in bone health, but the risks at high intakes are significant [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder for your skeleton. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it also plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
Data not available for Biovea Panax Ginseng 200 mg adverse events. For the ingredient calcium, the FDA has received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements. High calcium intakes can cause constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent need to urinate, and abnormal heart rhythms [FDA data]. High levels in the blood and urine can also lead to poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
We recommend you do not take this supplement without first consulting your doctor. The side effects from high calcium intake are serious, and the product-specific safety data is missing. If you decide to use it, do not exceed the recommended dose on the label, and be aware that calcium can interfere with medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, and levothyroxine [NIH ODS].
