Good 'N Natural Magnesium 500 mg
Brand: Good 'N Natural · Form: TABLET [E0155]
Our assessment
The evidence shows that Good 'N Natural Magnesium 500 mg is a mineral supplement. However, based on the data provided, the label lists Calcium as the ingredient, not Magnesium. This is a critical discrepancy. Our assessment is that you should verify the product label carefully before use, as the data indicates this product contains Calcium, which supports bone mineralization and neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder for your bones and a signal regulator for your nerves. It supports bone density and mineral deposition, and it helps your muscles relax and your nerves send signals properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available. High calcium intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High blood and urine calcium levels 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 [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
Given the data discrepancy between the product name and the listed ingredient, we cannot confidently recommend this specific product. If you are considering a calcium supplement, be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of medications such as bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Consult your doctor or pharmacist to confirm the correct product and dosage for your needs.
