abuse it!! -- and some people are simply sensitive to it. I think it's contraindicated for things like high blood pressure, etc. and a lot of overweight people have that. Some may not even know it.

ALL herbs are good, IMO. Some are safe for almost everyone under normal circumstances (I'm thinking of those which are also foods, spices, etc.). But some aren't. ALL herbs should be treated with respect and taken responsibly by people. Unfortunately, some supplement manufacturers make that more difficult (tho I'm sure there are people who ignore the warnings and cautions they do publish).
