Our assessment
The evidence shows that this product contains calcium, a mineral essential for bone health. However, the data does not specify the exact amount of calcium per serving in Dymatize Nutrition Liquid Super Amino Blue Raspberry, so we cannot confirm if it provides a meaningful dose. For general health, you should rely on established calcium sources and not consider this supplement a primary calcium replacement [NIH ODS].
How it works
Calcium plays a key role as a structural component for bone mineralization and supports bone density. It also aids in neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling throughout your body [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
Based on FDA data, there have been a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplement categories. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Side effects of excessive calcium include constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Start by checking the product label for the exact calcium content per serving. If the amount is low, do not rely on this supplement for your daily calcium needs. Be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, and levothyroxine [NIH ODS]. If you take any of these medications, separate your calcium intake by at least two hours.
