Dear Dermatologists, please stop prescribing utterly nonsensical dietary supplements, especially ones with green tea extracts to your patients for hair growth, hair fall, glowing skin and what not.

Two facts. One, none of these highly complex multi ingredient drugs work, because there is no evidence that any of these are actually dermatologically beneficial...and two, green tea extract based supplements are extremely liver toxic and its adverse effect on the liver can range from simple abnormal liver tests (like this patient's report shown in picture) to liver failure that end in a transplant or death.

Did you forget this case?

Reminder: PLEASE DO NOT PRESCRIBE SUPPLEMENTS WITH GREEN TEA EXTRACTS (OR ANY MULTI-INGREDIENT SUPPLEMENT FOR THAT MATTER). Gastroenterologists and Hepatologists are seeing the downstream consequences, not you.

Dangers of coffee?

Once again, the Sattvic Movement has outdone itself with this utter nonsense of a video that misleads public on coffee.

The Sattvic Movement is a pseudo-intellectual, pseudo-scientific, spinal-level thinking nationalistic activism from a scientifically illiterate couple, that is leveraged on peddling anti-science concepts, demonizing scientific progression, misinterpreting evidence, and misrepresenting clinical data all the while promoting ancient and primitive superstition written in the religious texts of Ayurveda which promotes culture-traditional dogmatism in healthcare. Even a grade 4 glioblastoma is not as malignant as Sattvic Movement is to India’s scientific temper.

In this video, Lady Sattvic speaks about three “facts” on why coffee is dangerous.

1/ Coffee is just for energizing temporarily and then people who drink coffee become lethargic.
2/ People get physically and psychologically dependent on coffee.
3/ Coffee dehydrates and destroys the lining of the stomach and causes constipation.

Her solution: Have warm herbal teas!

These statements are proof that mental constipation leads to verbal diarrhea and none of these are true.

Coffee does not produce a jerk and flaccid response in the nervous system, but caffeine may.

In fact, coffee as a dietary supplement for health/disease is one of the most scientifically studied aspects in clinical medicine.

Three cups of black coffee without milk or sugar daily have immense health benefits that you need to know about! The Sattvic Movement is just peddling a whole bunch of lies.

Coffee is significantly beneficial for the liver: it reduces fatty liver disease, reduced progression of fatty liver disease, reduces risk of developing cirrhosis and reduces risk of liver cancer development. See here https://t.co/wEborofOoF, here https://t.co/CkXD5ooqif and here https://t.co/25oHxALxt5

Coffee consumption does not only reduce risk of liver cancer, but also breast and endometrial cancer in women, colorectal and prostate cancers in men, reduces risk of dying from all causes, especially metabolic diseases such as diabetes and heart diseases and reduces risk of developing diabetes type 2 and Parkinson’s disease. See here https://t.co/iPel9c1TIA, here https://t.co/fB3AUKQ1t6 here https://t.co/9MZTbqkAxD

People do not get dependent on coffee, but caffeine. Do you know what else contains caffeine apart from coffee? Tea and chocolates. Yes. Dark chocolate contains 43g of caffeine in 100g, coffee contains 20-40g depending on preparatory methods and tea contains 11g caffeine in 100g.

So, is shifting to tea the solution to prevent caffeine dependency? Nope. Avoiding caffeinated products is.

What does that mean? It means that decaffeinated coffee is as good as whole coffee, because the “goodness and benefits on health” of coffee is not dependent on caffeine, but polyenol compounds in coffee. See here https://t.co/2sBck2culZ and here https://t.co/NbKRyj0ABx

And guess what, coffee and caffeine consumption was also significantly associated with decreased risk of depression. Yes, see here: https://t.co/jYlgT33I4g and hey also this – coffee intake was associated with lower incidence of chronic kidney disease, end-stage kidney disease and protein loss in urine. Damn. Coffee is the superhero we all need! See here - https://t.co/wvx4Ap1Syy

So go ahead and enjoy some raw and real/or decaff that will increase longevity, reduce heart and metabolic diseases, cancers and reduce risk of developing degenerative brain diseases.

Ok, so what about herbal teas? It is a bummer. There is absolutely no evidence from clinical studies to showcase that herbal teas are useful for anything other than featuring in misleading, stupid Instagram reels.

But wait, there is more on herbal teas. Herbal teas are not all that safe. Herbal teas, especially green tea extract infusions were associated with liver injury, liver failure and death or organ transplantation. The European Union warned and limited the use of green tea extracts in foods fearing liver damage among consumers. See here https://t.co/iPOUrV56Gp and here https://t.co/jPxawQn1Eo

And if you look at benefits of herbal teas versus adverse events of herbal teas in published literature, you will see that adverse events feature more.

Herbal teas have caused liver injury, liver failure, multiple organ failure, accelerated hypertension, paralysis, chronic liver injury, heart failure, brain strokes and brain failure and so much more in humans! See this link: https://t.co/Caoe9Rm51O

Oh, by the way, coffee does not increase blood pressure. In fact, it lowers it. So do not be too miserable on that. In habitual coffee users (3-5 cups a day), coffee had benefits on blood pressure parameters. Do not believe me? See here: https://t.co/ivXl0u79dM and about that destroying stomach lining and causing constipation – that was just bluff from the annoyingly sounding Lady Sattvic. See here https://t.co/xl4nVhcNDl

But is coffee safe for all?
No.
Pregnant women, please avoid more than 1-2 cups a day. See here: https://t.co/lZcBotutAA

So, what is this Sattvic Movement all about?
It is all about destroying the scientific temperament of the public in India and by misleading the public, they are creating more patients for the modern medicine hospitals to treat. Are they funded by Big Pharma? Hmmm, I wonder.

I am going to think that over a hot cup of black coffee. I think you should too!

And don’t forget to share this information with your herbal tea lover friends!
