Our assessment
The evidence shows that Himalaya Turmeric 95 contains calcium as a key ingredient. Our assessment is that for general bone health, calcium is a well-established mineral, but the specific benefits of this product depend entirely on its full formulation, which is not fully detailed here. You should know that while calcium is essential, the data provided does not include specific studies or efficacy data for this exact product.
How it works
Calcium works as a master regulator for your body’s structure and function. It supports bone mineralization by helping deposit minerals into your bone matrix, which maintains bone density. It also supports neuromuscular relaxation, meaning it helps your muscles relax and your nerves signal properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available. Based on the calcium data provided, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. 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 also reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
