Our assessment
The evidence shows that Quantum Health SuperLysine+ contains Calcium, a mineral essential for bone health. Our assessment is that this product may support your bone density, but you need to be aware of the specific risks and interactions tied to calcium supplementation. Data on the product's other ingredients is not available.
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block for your skeleton. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it also plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS]. For these functions to work properly, your body requires a consistent intake of this mineral.
Safety profile
The FDA has received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements, but specific report counts for this product are not available. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Very 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].
Our recommendation
Start by reviewing your total daily calcium intake from food and other supplements to avoid exceeding safe levels. Be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline and fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Consult your doctor or pharmacist before use, especially if you take any of these medications. Do not exceed the recommended serving on the label.
