I don't have any knowledge about these specific supplements. I would just

warn that there are several studies that have shown that the poorly

controlled market of dietary supplements has many products which contain

ingredients that are not listed on their labels. These include biologically

active substances and in many cases banned anabolics. The qualifiers

"natural" or "organic" do not seem to describe anything that could

reasonably defined as either natural or organic. Personally I would not use

any dietary supplement as I would consider all these products to be

dangerous due to the potential for unknown ingredients.
