Hope you had a nice time IN Hamsterjam , its a lovely city ( I lived there for 3 years)

With regard to Coltsfoot you might be interested in this...

webmd.com/vitamins-suppleme...

of particular interest is the TAB re ' Side Effects'

'Coltsfoot is considered UNSAFE. It contains chemicals called hepatotoxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) that can damage the liver or cause cancer. '

Hiya toots, great to hear you're doing well and enjoyed Amsterdam👍🏼😊

Don't know much about colts foot except it's a herb which can cause bad side effects, so may not be a good idea👎🏼

Hope you're very proud of yourself for a great quit, well done 😊x

Hiya toots, when I googled it the side effects are high blood pressure and liver damage and it says to use only short term in small doses😟

That's all I can find, hope this helps😊x
