I quote you from the from the Australian Chinese medicine education research council issue 5 vol 4.And you will see the usual hysteria that the media can cause and the western doctors take advantage of it. " the slimming cocktail [in Belgium] contained a mix of amphetamines ,tranquilizers,laxatives and diuretics as well as Chinese herbs.It was even suggested that injections of serotonin-creatinin-sulphate,which has a strong nephrotoxic effect,were administered in the form of injections.Howerver Guang Fang Ji alone was blamed for the toxic affects of the cocktail.The herb was administered uncooked ,something that is never done with toxic herbs such as guang fang ji.Furthermore he quotes Chris Daehens(TCMnet,1/96) that in 1995 in Germany seven patients out of 700 died ,after taking the slimming cocktai las the Belgium one -BUT with the omission of the Chinese herbs. " I will fax the full report to (3 Pages) to David Molony tomorrow.
