Cantharantus roseus - Alkaloid extracts have been looked into as an anti Lymphoma and Hodgkins Disease treatment. Some components cause toxic side effects (http://www.ncbi.nlm..../pubmed/3691399) (http://www.ncbi.nlm....pubmed/15615402). Almost sounds like chemotherapy! Not a menopause treatment!
yohimbine (in Rauvolfia serpentina) - Associated with cases of liver toxicity in other supplement combinations. This is the only one of these I've taken. Made me feel like I was going to die of a caffeine overdose when I took it once.
Black Cohosh: http://www.ncbi.nlm....pubmed/20130783 - Causes Liver Injury in some people, 'nough said.
I didn't find anything liver related with regards to the other ingredients.
In general I would strongly recommend avoiding kitchen sink supplements. It's much much better to research each ingredient carefully and to take them separately.
