sounds good.
From what I understand though ephedrine HCL is just as effective.

I just heard this myself. I'm going to try ECA and ephedra and see how they compare. I remember ephedra being more powerful.

only 155 deaths to the countless numbers who use it. I see they finally decided to get their heads out of their azzes. Still ****ing pisses me off that they ban our supplements yet do NOTHING about cigarettes.

I wonder how many deaths there have been from aspirin and other NSAIDS.

This is awesome, i love this stuff. I read a study the other day though that the FDA banned ephedra b/c it was just linked to many deaths (in other words, there were many deaths and the people happened to be on it), but they could not find any hard evidence showing that it was the cause of any of the deaths.

You've also got lobbyists of huge drug companies paying for politician's campaigns, that don't like "diet & nutritional supplements" that aren't FDA approved and that they can't make money off of. Kickbacks are a bitch.

How long do you think it'll take for Supplement Co's to get Ephedra back on the market? I hope real soon!

I heard that they don't know, that it's been turned over to the FDA, hence, somebody wants to get paid!

According to the gas station I frequent ephedra never left the market!

Ephedra, or Ephedrine HCI sold for the purpose of bronchiodialation? The latter was always legal and never part of the ban of ephedra. Hmm... I wonder if it has anything to do w/ the fact that it's approved by the FDA to be sold as a drug. Do you think the government would let a "murderous drug" slip through the cracks like that? I doubt it. $$$$
