Mountain Meadow Herbs Detox Fiber Blend
Brand: Mountain Meadow Herbs · Form: CAPSULE [E0159] On Market
Our assessment
The evidence shows that the primary active ingredient in this product is calcium, a mineral critical for bone health and nerve function. However, the data does not provide specific information on the "Detox Fiber Blend" itself, so we must focus on the calcium component. High calcium intake carries significant risks, including potential links to heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS].
How it works
Calcium acts as a master regulator for your body's structural and communication systems. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it is essential for neuromuscular relaxation, helping your muscles relax and nerves signal properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements, though specific data for this product is not available. For calcium, high blood and urine levels can cause poor muscle tone, kidney dysfunction, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent urination, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS] [FDA data]. Calcium can also reduce the absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS].
Our recommendation
We cannot recommend this product due to a lack of specific data on the "Detox Fiber Blend" and the known risks of high calcium intake. If you are considering it, consult your doctor first, especially if you take any medications. Data not available for the blend's fiber content or other ingredients [NIH ODS].
