However, based on the data provided, there is no information available about Tremella or American Ginseng specifically. Our assessment focuses on the calcium content, which the data confirms supports bone density and neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS]. You should be aware that the safety and efficacy of this product as a whole cannot be fully evaluated due to missing data on its other ingredients.
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder for your bones. It works through bone mineralization, supporting bone density and mineral deposition, and also supports neuromuscular relaxation, which helps your muscles relax and your nerves signal properly [NIH ODS]. For this product, data on how Tremella and American Ginseng work is not available.
Safety profile
The FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports for all products in their database. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. High levels of calcium 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 also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Side effect report counts for this specific product are data not available.
Our recommendation
Our recommendation is to consult with your healthcare provider before taking this product, especially if you are on any medications like antibiotics or thyroid medication, due to the potential interaction with calcium [NIH ODS]. Because data on the Tremella and American Ginseng ingredients is not available, we cannot provide a specific recommendation for those components. Focus on getting your calcium from food sources if possible, and only supplement under professional guidance to avoid the risks of high calcium intake [NIH ODS].
