Kris, I couldn't find all of the herbs you listed in this weight
loss (for mom) preparation, but I did find most of them. With the
exception of Bladderwrack (seaweed to most of us), all that I did
find were either diuretics or laxatives (which *will* cause wt.
loss mainly through water loss - not a real good idea for a
breastfeeding mom, IMO). Did this preparation claim to "suppress
appetite" or is this your or someone's else's assumption? I don't
think it should have, if it did. Again, the weight loss is
probably because of water loss. Judy Knopf in Israel
