How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder and a signal messenger. It supports bone density and mineral deposition for a strong skeleton, and it also helps with muscle relaxation and nerve signaling throughout your body [NIH ODS].

FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS].
