Allergy Research Group Magnesium Malate Forte
Brand: Allergy Research Group · Form: TABLET [E0155]
Our assessment
The evidence shows that Allergy Research Group Magnesium Malate Forte is a supplement meant to deliver calcium, but data on its specific magnesium malate content is not available. Our assessment is that while calcium is a critical mineral, you should approach this product with caution due to the significant safety concerns associated with high calcium intake. Data not available for the specific magnesium malate ingredient profile [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural builder and signaler — it supports bone mineralization by helping deposit minerals into your skeleton, and it also supports neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplement categories. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. 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 [FDA data] [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
We recommend you do not take this supplement without first consulting your doctor and having your calcium levels checked. Because calcium can reduce absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin, it is critical to discuss all medications you take with your healthcare provider [NIH ODS].
