Our assessment
Our assessment: Shaklee CorEnergy is a calcium supplement, and the evidence shows that calcium is essential for bone health. However, the data provided does not include the specific dosage of calcium in this product, so we cannot verify if it meets your individual needs. Always check the label for the exact amount of elemental calcium per serving [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a building block for your skeleton. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it also plays a critical role in neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific side effect counts for calcium alone are not provided. Some research suggests that high calcium intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels of calcium in the blood and urine can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, 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]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Our recommendation: Data not available for the specific dosage of calcium in Shaklee CorEnergy. Because of this, we cannot provide a confident recommendation for this product. Before taking any calcium supplement, talk to your doctor or pharmacist about your total daily intake from food and other supplements to avoid exceeding safe levels [NIH ODS].
