Dymatize Nutrition Super Amino 6000
Brand: Dymatize Nutrition · Form: SUPPLEMENT FORM, OTHER [E0172]
Our assessment
The evidence shows that Dymatize Nutrition Super Amino 6000 contains calcium, a mineral essential for bone health. However, the specific amounts of calcium per serving are not provided in the available data. For a general adult, the established RDA for calcium is 1,000 mg daily, but this product's contribution to that total is unclear from the data provided [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block for your bones and a key signaling molecule for your muscles. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it is critical for neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. Without adequate calcium, your body may leach it from your bones to support these vital functions.
Safety profile
FDA has received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports for all dietary supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Very high levels in the blood and urine can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, 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
Because the exact calcium content in Dymatize Nutrition Super Amino 6000 is not available in the data, we cannot make a precise dosing recommendation. If you are taking this product for calcium, you should check the label to see the amount per serving. Do not exceed the Tolerable Upper Intake Level of 2,500 mg of total calcium per day from all sources, and be sure to take calcium supplements separately from medications listed above [NIH ODS].
