I am overweight though not obese (on BMI). I am taking thyroxine for hypothyroidism and statins to lower my cholesterol. (both conditions run in my family and both are under control). I'd like to lose some weight around my middle but I do not want a fad diet again. I am taking regular exercise (just run 4.5 miles this evening) so I don't really need general weight loss advice I just thought I'd try Phytolacca Berry mother Tincture. thanks.

Yes, just because something is natural doesn't mean that it's good for your body. It's more "crude" than anything. I'm sure the company will show you these statistics how they are so good, but all the companies do that with each individual product. This, to me, is nothing but a marketing ploy. I'm sure there are no long term studies that were done to this, so that should raise some red flags. If you take it now, will you have side effects for it in 10 years? You need to think of this before you take anything that is "natural". Best of luck to you.
