Is Black Cohosh Safe?

There was a time when Black Cohosh was being touted as having no side effects.
Well, they are now saying that it is very toxic to the liver and can cause liver damage. This however, apparently, is reversible once you stop black cohosh.
Having said that, they're not sure whether it's the black cohosh itself that's the problem or whether the toxicity is due to something in the manufacturing process and may just be limited extracts of black cohosh.
Whatever the cause use with caution  if you have or have ever had hepatitis or liver problems.
Consult your doctor if you want to use Black Cohosh and use a reputable source.
