A drug search for ephedrine (the isolated ingredient of the herb ma/ ephedra, plenty of OTC products. So it is still out there. There is a warning on Sudafed that overdose makes you drowsy. But pop a handful and you'll get a buzz (so they say, I never tried it). You may be right and maybe ephedra was unadulterated compared to Sudafed but IMO, BOTH products were made by phamaucitcals (not by a herbalist). Here's a question. Drug Companies routinely produce many times over the number of legal prescriptions (or OTC sales) as the legitimate demand call for - including the free samples. They have been doing this for years. Why in a business sense would they continue to produce say 1,000 units when they can only sell or give away 100 units ??? Since OUR government has statistics on everything ... like how many eggs the average American eats per year, I wonder how many Sudafed's each American consumes (buys) versus how many Sudafed's (ephedrine) are produced each year. (Referring to previous posts) that answer will show that Senator Feinstein's (D-CA) heart is in the right place - depending upon who you're working for that is... Ed Kasper LAc.

RE: CSNATIONAL HEALTH FEDERATION - CAFTA Press Release
I believe it is important to note here that she points out specifically to the few deaths caused by dietary supplement Ephedra, to continue as the rationale to protect the people . Specifically in this case ephedra was a concentrated isolated standardized form of a common herb. This phyto--Pharmacia was used and promoted in a way in which the herb by itself would never be used for. Herbalist have always cautioned in its use and was not for long term use. IN EFFECT this phyto--Pharmacia ephedra was responsible for killing and injuring people and while the simple whole herb, ephedra - got the blame. How could anyone make such a simple mistake? . Just as if one took the simple herb foxglove isolated, concentrated and standardized it into DIGITALIS it would be a drug and it as all drugs would kill people. Or where making a simple tea from the simple herb St John's Wort be as effective as the Anti-depressive drugs (and without side affects) yet when St John's Wort was concentrated isolated and standardized blamed on liver failure. YET there are no reported cases of the herb ma huang (ephedra) or the herb St John's Wort being associated with death or even injury !!! Where both Ma Huang and St John's Wort grow wild and may be made as a simple tea that offers relief quickly and affective it does take certain degree of expertise and expensive equipment to produce a concentrated, standardized isolation of a single ingredient. Then to market and promote such a product without any concerns of known reactions. ... .who would profit from such madness ... Ephedra - which was sold and marketed in Health Food Stores across the USA as a isolated, standardized concentrated extract was specifically promoted and marketed as a street drug. All those involved in this action knew it was speed. They also knew speed helped reduce the appetite (lose weight) and gave one lots of energy. It was also aimed at kids and ALL those involved in this knowingly were selling drugs. BTW, you can still LEGALLY BUY Ephedra at your local __drugstore__. Its over the counter (no prescription needed) Sudafed (and a few other brand names) Thank God, the PRESS and the Government protect the people... Ed Kasper LAc.
