Our assessment
The evidence shows that Dymatize Super Protein Amino 6000 contains Calcium as a key ingredient. For most adults, calcium is important for bone health, but the data indicates you should be cautious about getting too much from supplements. The total number of adverse event reports across all supplement products tracked by the FDA is 592,059, though specific data for this product is not available [FDA data].
How it works
Think of calcium as a building block for your bones and a signal manager for your muscles. It supports bone mineralization and helps your muscles relax and nerves signal properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
Safety data for this specific product is not available. However, for calcium generally, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High calcium levels can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, 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].
Our recommendation
Our assessment: If you are considering this product, be aware that the calcium content could interact with medications you take. You should always check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting a new supplement, especially if you take prescription medications for your bones, thyroid, or infections. Data not available on the exact calcium dose in this product, so proceed with caution [NIH ODS].
