Abstract

The authors of the article have requested the publication of this erratum since the authors now state that a product described in the case series, OxyELITE Pro, does not contain green tea extract, in contrast to what was stated in the article. Accordingly, the following text and literature citations should be considered as deleted from the publication: “OxyELITE Pro also contains green tea extract, which has been linked to recent reports of severe hepatotoxicity in humans [20, 21]. However, the amount of green tea extract is limited… Nonetheless, recent weight loss could lower the threshold for inadvertent liver toxicity from catechins in green tea extract as was recently demonstrated in animal studies [4, 22, 23].”.
