Our assessment
The evidence shows that this product contains Calcium, a mineral essential for bone health. Our assessment is that while Calcium is well-supported for maintaining bone density, the specific data for Nordic Naturals Omega One Lemon is limited to the ingredient Calcium, and we must rely on general data for this mineral. You should be aware of significant safety considerations before supplementing [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of Calcium as a structural building block for your skeleton. It supports bone mineralization and density, and also plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation, helping your muscles relax and your nerves signal properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements. For Calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Very high levels can cause 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 medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation

We advise you to consult your healthcare provider before taking this supplement, especially if you take any of the listed medications.
