Our assessment
The evidence shows that this multi-vitamin provides a significant amount of calcium, which is a key mineral for your bone health. However, you need to be aware of the specific risks and interactions associated with calcium supplementation, especially if you take other medications [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as the structural backbone for your bones and teeth. It supports bone density through mineralization and also plays a role in muscle relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplements. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High blood and urine levels of calcium can cause constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS] [FDA data]. Data not available for report counts specific to this product.
Our recommendation
Take this supplement with food to improve absorption. Because calcium can reduce the absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin, you should take this multi at least two hours apart from those medications [NIH ODS]. Talk to your doctor before starting, especially if you have a history of kidney stones or heart conditions.
