Rare reactions-green tea extract and G. cambogia
 
Garcinia cambogia weight loss supplements and green tea extract.


There have been many articles in the past week on the news here regarding liver failure connected with these two supplements in particular after the near death of a man who ended up needing an urgent liver transplant and the only liver available to keep him alive was one infected with Hepatitis B.

Medical Journal of Australia - Liver failure and transplantation after use of dietary supplements

ABC News Au - liver damage and herbal supplements

NOTE: This is a green tea extract not green tea that we drink.
