Our assessment
The evidence shows that Arbonne Essentials Daily Fiber Boost contains calcium, which is essential for bone health. However, the data provided does not specify the exact amount of calcium per serving or list its other ingredients. Our assessment is that while calcium is a well-studied mineral, you should be cautious about the total calcium you consume from all sources, including this supplement, to avoid exceeding safe levels [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block for your bones and a key player in your nervous system. It supports bone mineralization and density, and it helps regulate muscle relaxation and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
Data not available for side effects specific to this product. However, for calcium generally, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. Very high levels of calcium 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]. The FDA has received 592,059 total adverse event reports for all dietary supplements, but a specific count for this product is not available [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Check the product label for the exact amount of calcium per serving. Then, add up the calcium you get from all supplements and food to ensure you do not exceed the tolerable upper intake level. Be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of medications such as bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting this supplement, especially if you take any medications.
