How it works

Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all products in their database. Data for this specific product is not available. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Very high blood levels of calcium 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 several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
We recommend you consult your doctor before taking this supplement, especially if you take any prescription medications. Data not available for the specific "Advanced Ginseng Plus" formula means we cannot confirm its benefits or risks beyond the calcium content. Do not exceed recommended intake without medical supervision [NIH ODS].
