Trace Minerals Research Cal/Mag/Zinc Strawberry
Brand: Trace Minerals Research · Form: LIQUID, SUPPLEMENT FORM [E0165]
Our assessment
Our assessment: This product provides a combination of calcium, magnesium, and zinc in a liquid form. These are essential minerals that support bone health and immune function. However, the specific amounts and ratios of these minerals are not provided in the data, making it impossible to evaluate whether the dosage is appropriate for you. Data not available on exact amounts per serving.
How it works
Calcium is a primary building block for bones and teeth, while magnesium helps your body absorb calcium and supports muscle and nerve function [NIH ODS]. Zinc plays a crucial role in immune cell development and communication [NIH ODS]. Together, these minerals work synergistically, but the balance is important — too much zinc can interfere with copper absorption, and high calcium can affect magnesium levels [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
Data not available on adverse event reports specific to this product from FDA data. General side effects for these minerals include stomach upset from calcium, loose stools from high-dose magnesium, and nausea from excess zinc [NIH ODS]. Without specific dosing information, it is not possible to estimate typical side effect risk for this formulation.
Our recommendation
Our recommendation: Because the data provided does not include the exact amounts of calcium, magnesium, and zinc per serving, we cannot assess whether this product meets your needs. If you are considering this supplement, check the label for precise milligram amounts and compare them to your daily requirements. For most adults, the RDA for calcium is 1,000-1,200 mg, magnesium is 310-420 mg, and zinc is 8-11 mg [NIH ODS]. Discuss with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement.
