do NOT take it if you are nursing. this is diorectly from WebMD
In 2009, the Food and Drug Administration warned everyone to stop using a weight-loss product that contained garcinia cambogia because some people taking it got serious liver problems. The product had other ingredients, too, so it's not clear that garcinia cambogia was to blame. While some research suggests the supplement is safe for your liver, other research says no.
Garcinia cambogia may interact badly with:
Asthma and allergy medicines such as Accolate and Singulair
Diabetes medicines, including pills and insulin
Iron, for anemia
Pain medicines
Prescriptions for psychiatric conditions
Statins, drugs that lower cholesterol
Warfarin, a blood thinner
You definitely don't want to use it when you're pregnant or nursing, or if you have kidney or liver problems.
