Our assessment
The evidence shows that this product contains calcium, a mineral essential for bone health. Our assessment is that you should understand both the benefits and the specific risks associated with calcium supplementation before taking this product. The data provided does not include specific amounts of calcium in this supplement, so you cannot verify the dose [NIH ODS].
How it works
Calcium acts as a structural builder for your bones and teeth through a process called bone mineralization, where it supports bone density and mineral deposition. It also plays a key role in neuromuscular relaxation, helping your muscles relax and your nerves signal properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
The FDA has received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports for all supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available. From the data, high calcium intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. Side effects from very high blood or urine calcium levels include 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
We recommend you speak with your healthcare provider before starting this supplement, especially if you take any medications on the interaction list. Since the exact calcium dosage in this product is not provided in the data, you cannot confirm you are meeting your needs safely. Do not exceed the RDA without medical supervision, and be aware of the serious risks associated with high calcium levels [NIH ODS].
