Question: I wanted to know the side affects of XXXXXXX nigrum, garcinia mangostana, and sphaeranthus indicus for someone with slight irregular hearbeat and slightly elevated blood pressure. i have also had a stent put in about nine years ago and i am taking a blood thinner.
Brief Answer:
No significant side effects/not enough data to conclude that they do not have significant side effects, Long term safety is not established for any of these
Detailed Answer:
Hello there.
Thank you for posting your query on healthcaremagic.com,
I understand your concern.
According to the literature, there are no significant adverse effects from garcinia mangostana (has been reported to cause lactic acidosis of long term consumption) , XXXXXXX nigrum.. Though sphaeranthus indicus can result in cardiac rhythm abnormality indirectly(may cause cardiac overload) causing heart failure..
An ayurvedic expert's supervision needs to be solicited if you consume over longer duration.
Hope this is helpful. You can write to me for your further queries.
Take care.

Thank you for your analysis of the ingredients I had inquired about. I have been careful with ingesting any substance that might have negative consequences on my heart rhythm and appreciate your warning of possible side effects.
May I infer by your response that for a short period of time like 30 days, sphaeranthus indicus would be ok, but not long term?
