Description

Heavily marketed for weight loss but human studies consistently show negligible effects. Some reports of liver toxicity. A triumph of marketing over evidence.

Safety & interactions

Minimal weight loss effect in humans. Case reports of liver damage. Not worth the risk for negligible benefit.
