Experts Warn of Hidden Risks in Popular Supplements.
Health experts warn that weight loss supplements with stimulants, melatonin, and bitter orange can have harmful side effects and may not even be effective. Stimulants can cause rapid heart rate, insomnia, anxiety, and heart palpitations. Melatonin supplements can cause dependence, headaches, dizziness, and morning grogginess. Bitter orange can cause heart problems and has been linked to strokes and heart attacks. It's important to exercise caution when considering supplements and prioritize a nutritious diet and healthy habits instead.
