It seems that the fears of ephedra have caused
amnesia among American's, as they have forgotten that ephedra has been
used successfully and safely for over 5000 years to treat a myriad of
afflictions, most notably obesity.
In 1999, the U.S General Accounting Office (GAO)
made a report to congress stating that the Federal Drug Administration
(FDA) Adverse Events Reports (AER's) surrounding Ephedra (commonly used
as an argument against ephedra) were "poorly documented".
Ephedra has been responsible for nearly a hundred
deaths and 1,178 adverse reactions is a fallacy. Of course, ephedra,
like sugar, must be used properly and most supplement companies have
ignored this. Nonetheless, ephedra is in fact an inexpensive natural
product that poses huge competition to pharmaceutical companies.
Ephedra is poised to successfully treat obesity,
managing the symptoms of ADHD, depression and asthma, when used correctly.
Considering that obesity kills 800 people per day and that the American
Cancer Society has stated that obesity may soon be the leading cause
of cancer it would appear that ephedra is exactly what America needs!
Make sure to check with your doctor before you
start taking any weight loss medications or engage in any form of physical
activity.
