Our assessment
The evidence shows that GT Genesis Today Fiber + Probiotics contains calcium as an ingredient.

Data on the fiber and probiotic portion is not available in the provided information.
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural and signaling mineral. It supports bone density and mineral deposition for strong bones, and it assists with muscle relaxation and nerve signaling throughout your body [NIH ODS]. The fiber and probiotics in this blend are intended to support digestive health, though specific mechanisms for those ingredients are not detailed in the data provided.
Safety profile
FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplement categories. Specific side effects for this product are not listed, but for calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. 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].
Our recommendation
Our recommendation: Before taking this product, review all medications you take with your pharmacist. Calcium can reduce the absorption of bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. Do not exceed the recommended serving on the label. If you have a history of kidney stones, heart disease, or prostate cancer, consult your doctor before use [NIH ODS].
