How it works
Calcium plays a critical role in your body. Think of it as a structural building block for your bones, supporting bone density and mineral deposition [NIH ODS]. It also acts as a signaling molecule, supporting muscle relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
The FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific side effect counts for this product are not available.

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 need to urinate, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS]. Calcium can reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
