MRM Whole Food Organic Fiber Unflavored
Brand: MRM · Form: POWDER [E0162] On Market
Our assessment
The evidence shows that MRM Whole Food Organic Fiber Unflavored is a dietary supplement, but our review focuses on the primary ingredient listed in our data: Calcium. For general health, calcium is essential for bone health, but the data does not support using this product for any specific condition without understanding your total calcium intake from all sources. Data not available on the specific fiber content or other ingredients in this product.
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].
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 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 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].
Our recommendation
Because this is a fiber supplement with calcium, we recommend you assess your total daily calcium intake from food and other supplements. Do not exceed the tolerable upper intake level without medical supervision. If you take any of the medications listed above, take this supplement at least 2 hours apart from them [NIH ODS]. For personalized advice, consult your healthcare provider.
