Despite the fact that the FDA recalled Pai You Guo (a dangerous diet pill) some health and beauty stores and internet companies are still selling the product.
Pai You Guo was recalled after the FDA found traces of mercury, lead, other heavy metals, pesticides and drugs that were not listed in the ingredients in it. The dangerous recalled diet pill promotes itself as being all natural and an herbal weight loss pill but the investigation showed differently. The metals found in the weight loss pill were below a dangerous level but the pesticides found in the weight loss pill were over the allowable limits and were at a dangerous level. The drugs found in the diet pill were sibutramine, an appetite suppression drug, and phenolphthalein, a chemical once in over-the-counter laxitives which was banned because the chemical is linked to causing cancer.
The FDA banned this product because it can be dangerous and cause illnesses and considering it contains the drug phenolphthalein it potentially causes the risk of cancer. Diet pills, just like any other pill, are required to list the ingredients which they contain which this pill does not, nor does it have the proper warning labels listed on it leaving users of Pai You Guo to think that the weight loss pill is safe when it is really dangerous and can cause them harm.
If you or a loved one is on this weight loss pill it is wise to stop taking it immediately regardless of weight loss results it is unsafe to take and you should stop use immediately.
