HOT-ROX damaging?

I've heard rumors and found hints online that Hot-Rox may be damaging to the liver. I found a thread in the PN forums that addresses this concern, but there was no definitive resolution to the topic.
I'm curious as to what Mr. Berardi thinks of all this hub-bub? Why endorse a product that could be so damaging? Is there knowledge out there that we, the masses, are ignorant of?

I took Hot-Rox for six weeks when I did the GSD. I experienced no ill effects.

For the record, virtually every supplement on the market today has had someone question its safety at some point. Including Aspirin. Most of these questions have nothing backing them up, but we tend to remember accusations because they're sexy and controversial. I don't think Dr. B. has anything to answer for here until somone steps up with actual data.

Don't believe everything you read. Believe even less of what you heard as rumour. Find facts first.

Dr. Berardi also warns in GSD that stimulants can be harsher on some individuals than others. With any supplement, if you aren't sure that your body can handle it, then seek medical consul or just don't take it.

Hot Rox has been around for years not that long term studies have been done. But, Biotest is a reliable company.Think of all the years we have taken acetametaphin.

One of the most common questions we get from Precision Nutrition readers is whether we can help them personally. The answer is usually no, and has been for some time. And the reason is simply that there are more people that need help than there are qualified coaches to help them.

But every now and again, we open up a few spots in our coaching programs, and today is one of those days. We're now accepting clients for our group coaching programs: Lean Eating for Men, and Lean Eating for Women.
