FDA Adds More Diet Pills to Its "Unsafe" List

The FDA adds 41 more products to an alert about unsafe diet pills it issued last month, bringing the total to 69.

The pills are advertised as "natural" fat busters and some suggest they are innovative "herbal" remedies from Asia.

But, the FDA says many contain Sibutramine, a powerful appetite suppressant that can cause heart attacks and strokes.
