What happen if I drink tea green oil ## Hi Marta, I'm not sure whether you are referring to Green Tea or Tea Tree Oil (Melaleuca)? Can you elaborate a bit more on your intentions for drinking it as well? Like what are you expecting to happen? Both of these have a wide array of health benefits and Melaleuca oil is classified by the FDA as a GRAS Certified Food-Grade ingredient for consumption that includes preparations containing 25% or less of Melaleuca oil from both topical and ingested medicines. Please post back if you have any more information to add. I hope this helps!

I have a recipe for a weight-loss sunday and it calls for Matcha green tea powder. I couldn't find that so was wondering if I rip a green tea bag open if it will be comparable? thanks ## I doubt it's really going to work the same. From what I can tell, the Matcha is just a brand name, so you should be able to just use any green tea powder, in place of it, in the recipe. Are there any other suggestions?

what are the chemical contents of green tea extract? Is there caffein? How much? ## Generally, the main green tea ingredients are caffeine (formerly called theine), tannin (flavonols), theophylline, theobromine, fat, wax, saponins, essential oils, polyphenols particularly catechins, carotene, vitamin C, vitamins A, B1, B12, K and P, flouride, iron, magnesium, calcium, strontium, copper, nickel, and zinc.

As far as caffeine content, the younger leaves ...

Thinking about trying this pill to lose some weight, I would like to know if anyone has any input on this drug. Good or bad. ## I cannot find any information on a product under this name. Is it something that is sold in the U.S.? You should keep in mind that as a supplement, it is not actually proven to help with weight loss or anything else. Does anyone else know anything about this?

I'm trying to find out what these pills are. There are no numbers or markings on the capsule ## Hello, Neal! How are you? I'm sorry, but without any markings, it is going to be difficult to determine what they contain with any certainty. We can rule them out as being a U.S. prescription product, since they are all require to have markings to enable their identification. Compounding pharmacies sometimes do specially ordered medications, but they use plain capsules, in most cases. That means that this is most likely and over the counter product, which leaves it open to many possibilities. I'll keep looking and post back, when I have information for you. Does anyone else recognize this capsule? ## I also have found a zip-loc bag with this type of pill. Green/White capsule conta...

White, yellow, and I believe dark green, possibly brown capsule type pill. No markings. It is a solid pill, not one that can be broken open. Half is the green color and the other half is split yellow and white. ## Hi Carolyn, U.S. law requires that all prescription drugs have unique letters or numbers (sometimes in addition to a logo of some kind) imprinted on the tablets or capsules so the medication can be identified. Odds are that it could either be manufactured outside of the U.S. or that it is an over the counter medication, as OTC meds aren't required to be listed in the drug databases. If you're able to, I would consider taking the pill over to your local pharmacy and having it analyzed by their team to see if they can come up with anything. And as a last resort, you coul...

My brother recently committed suicide and I am awaiting the toxicology results. However, I am troubled by some pills found in his flat. One was a small round tablet, pastel green in colour and AA printed on one side and 432 or 492 on the reverse. The second was a capsule teal and yellow cream coloured with the letter C written on the teal part and TK on the yellow half. ## Sorry, I can't find any information on either one of these. Are you in the US or were these found in a different country? Does anyone else know what these are? I am also very sorry to hear of your loss.

Found a clear capsule with green powder inside no markings at all. Was told it is oxycodone? ## If there are no markings on it, then it is not a U.S. manufactured Oxycodone product, as they are all required to have markings to enable their identification. This leaves a few other possibilities, it could be a product that was specially ordered by a doctor and done by a compounding pharmacy. It could be a foreign medication, or the one that is most likely, it could be an over the counter product. Just as an example, the ones I've seen that meet this description are a green tea supplement sold in my local health food store. Does anyone else have any ideas? ## It could be Pure Moringa. The dietary supplement. I have a couple. There's no label, clear capsule, and green powder.

Almost looks like a spearmint leaf ## It's actually shaped like a leaf, rather than being just round or oval? If that is the case, the only guesses I can make are that it may be some type or mint, or possibly an illicit drug of some sort. ## Might be an herbal viagra substitute ## It may be a green tea mint from trader joes... (google image search it) ## I can’t figure out this pill, it’s green shaped like a leaf/tear drop one side has the veins of the leaf and the other side has TJ ## Yes that's exactly what it looks like. ## Definitely sounds like a Trader Joe's green tea mint:

I took a pill like this for many years and need to find out the name of this medicine ## Sorry, I can seem to narrow down my search to the medication are you trying to ask about. There are many capsules that are black and green, both prescription and over the counter. Is there virtually no imprint on the tablet itself? U.S. law requires that all prescription drugs have a unique imprint on the tablets or capsules so the medication can be identified by manufacturer, substance and dosage. Having said that, do you know where you got the pills from if you have been taking them for so many years without knowing what they are? That just doesn't make sense. ## hi i foud some kind of pill in my house it says AP0 10 its a capsule and its black and teal i would really like to know what it is i...

Dark green top and light green bottom capsule, what is it? ## I guess one could say light & dark green top & bottom, or it could be green & teal or blue or turquise--and I swear, perhaps a band of yellow too. I don't know. But I know three doses in only two days started to desiccate these staph (prob. MRSA) leshions. And I cannot recall the letters/numbers; was never told the mgs. Obviously an antibiotic, I would be eternally greatful if a one could tell me the name of this pharmaceutical. ## How long ago was it prescribed? There are Cephalexin capsules that are shades of dark and light green. Perhaps you may recognize them from the pictures on the page Cephalexin details. It is an antibiotic that is very commonly used to treat various types of bacterial infections. You ...

clear capsul with green/brown colored powder in it, unmarked ## There are several possibilities of what this could be, since without markings, it is more than likely an over the counter product. From the description, it could be a fiber laxative, some do resemble this or perhaps a green tea supplement. However, without any markings, there is no way to positively identify it. Do you have any other information on it?
