Hydroxycut

Hydroxycut is a long-running U.S. weight-loss supplement brand. Its line includes Original, Hardcore and Non-Stimulant capsules, gummies, drink mixes and Pro Clinical products, sold widely at Walmart and other mass retailers. The formulas have changed several times: according to NIH's LiverTox database, Hydroxycut products containing ephedra were withdrawn in 2004, and Hydroxycut products were withdrawn again in 2009 because of liver injury.
