Our assessment

The evidence shows that this product contains Calcium as an ingredient. Based on the data provided, we can only speak to the calcium component. For general bone health and nerve function, calcium is a well-established mineral. However, without a specific dosage per serving from the label, we cannot assess the strength or appropriateness of this product for your specific needs [NIH ODS].

How it works

Think of calcium as a key structural component for your skeleton. It supports bone mineralization and density, and is critical for neuromuscular relaxation and proper nerve signaling throughout your body [NIH ODS].

Safety profile

The FDA has received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports for all products in their database. 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, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [FDA data] [NIH ODS]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].

Our recommendation

You should consult your healthcare provider before starting this supplement, especially if you take any prescription medications. Because the data does not include a specific calcium dosage for this product, we cannot provide a safe intake level. Do not exceed your total daily calcium needs from all sources (diet and supplements) without professional guidance [NIH ODS].
