I am a fan of Jillian Michaels, but not her pills. The detox & cleanse contain uva ursi which has been shown to cause liver damage & since the box does not indicate how much is contained in the pills, there is no way of knowing if the amount is great enough to cause such damage. As for the Quickstart, the "fruit extracts" include bitter orange which has the same components as ephedrine, which does cause elevated blood pressure & can lead to stroke or heart attack.
