FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We investigated the toxicity of 12 active compounds commonly found in herbal weight loss supplements (WLS) using human liver and colon cell models. Epigallocatechin‐3‐gallate was the only compound showing significant toxicity. Metabolic profiling revealed protein degradation, disrupted energy and lipid metabolism suggesting that the inclusion of EGCG ...

Global Priorities for Vehicle Safety [PDF]
Traffic Injury Prevention, 2003 Presently, just over 1 million people die annually in road crashes; that number will rise to 2 million by 2020. 85% of these fatal crashes occur in developing countries, and of those, about 75% involve pedestrians, bicyclists, and motorcyclists. Over the past 10 years several organizations have attempted to outline the nature and severity of these ...
