Our assessment
The evidence shows that this product is a source of calcium, a mineral essential for bone health and nerve function [NIH ODS]. However, the data provided does not include the specific amount of calcium in Nordic Naturals Nordic Omega-3 Gummies Tangerine, nor does it confirm that calcium is a primary ingredient. Our assessment is that you should not rely on this gummy as a significant source of calcium unless you have verified the exact amount from the product label.
How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body's structural and signaling systems. It supports bone mineralization, helping you maintain strong bones, and is critical for neuromuscular relaxation, meaning it helps your muscles relax and your nerves send signals properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
Data not available for this specific product. However, based on general calcium data, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer.

The FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available [FDA data].
Our recommendation
We recommend you check the product label for the exact calcium content per serving.

For a clear recommendation on calcium intake, consult your healthcare provider and do not rely on this supplement alone.
