Natural Supplements to Stay Away From

September 25th, 2011

Your physical safety is important to you – that’s why you wear reflectors at night and look into ADT pricing whenever you can. But what about natural health supplements? It’s hard to know when things are labeled “natural” what’s good for you and what’s nothere are a few of the supplements you need to stay away from.
Bitter Orange – It sounds harmless enough (if not pretty distasteful) but Bitter Orange is used to encourage weight loss and help with other ailments like allergies. It can actually cause stroke and heart attack, though, so beware.
Colloidal Silver – This supplement has been passed down through the generations for treatment of everything from AIDS to lyme disease to rosacea but it’s actually been known to turn people blue. That’s right, users of this supplement have physically been tinted blue, permanently.
Kava – Used in the pacific islands to treat anxiety and as a general relaxant this derivative of the numbing root plant can actually cause liver damage that’s irreversible. It’s still widely sold, so look out for it and stay away.
