Our assessment
The evidence shows that NeoLife Nutritionals All Natural Fiber contains calcium as a key ingredient. Our assessment is that this product can be a useful tool for supporting bone health, but you need to be aware of the specific risks and medication interactions associated with calcium supplementation [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block for your skeleton. It supports bone density and mineral deposition, which is critical for maintaining strong bones as you age [NIH ODS]. Additionally, calcium plays a role in neuromuscular relaxation, helping your muscles relax and your nerves signal properly [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
FDA received 592,059 total adverse event reports across all supplement categories. For calcium specifically, high intakes may increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer [NIH ODS]. High levels in your 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]. Data not available on specific side effect counts for this product.
Our recommendation
We recommend you take this product only if you know your dietary calcium intake is low. Be aware that calcium can reduce the absorption of several medications, including bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, fluoroquinolone antibiotics, levothyroxine, and phenytoin [NIH ODS]. You should take this supplement at least two hours apart from those medications. Start with a low dose and monitor for constipation or nausea [NIH ODS].
