Our assessment
The evidence shows that while calcium is essential for bone health, the specific product Nutramedix Adrenal Support contains this mineral. Our assessment is that you should be aware of the potential risks associated with calcium supplementation, as high intakes are linked to serious health concerns [NIH ODS].
How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body. It supports bone mineralization, helping to build and maintain bone density, and it also plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation, aiding in proper muscle function and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Side effects from high calcium levels in the blood and urine 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] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
We recommend you consult your healthcare provider before starting this supplement, especially if you take medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline or fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, or phenytoin, as calcium can reduce their absorption [NIH ODS]. Data not available on specific side effect report counts for this product.
