Our assessment
The evidence shows that Renew Life Ultimate Flora RTS Women's Probiotic is a supplement designed to support digestive health, but our assessment is based strictly on the data provided. The primary ingredient with available data is calcium, which plays a role in bone health. However, we must be clear that data on the specific probiotic strains in this product is not available, so we cannot verify their individual benefits or mechanisms.
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block for your bones. It supports bone mineralization and density, and also helps with nerve signaling and muscle relaxation [NIH ODS]. The probiotic component of this product is intended to support your gut microbiome, though specific mechanisms for this product's strains are not detailed in the provided data.
Safety profile
Based on the FDA adverse event data, there have been 592,059 total reports for all supplements. For calcium specifically, side effects from high intakes can include constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent need to urinate, and abnormal heart rhythms [NIH ODS]. High calcium levels can also increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer according to some research [NIH ODS]. Please note: side effect report counts specific to this probiotic product are not available.
Our recommendation
Start by checking your current calcium intake from food and other supplements, as calcium from this product could contribute to your total. Be aware that calcium can interfere with medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, and levothyroxine [NIH ODS]. Because data on the specific probiotic strains is not available, we cannot confirm their efficacy. Our recommendation is to consult your healthcare provider before starting this supplement, especially if you take other medications or have a history of kidney issues.
