I have NEVER had a problem taking ephedra based herbal pills. Yes I do take them for weight control and they work. I don't ever go over the dosage recommendations which is what that ball player did when he died. I don't need government telling me that ephedra is so awful for me when alcohol is still legal and so are cigarettes. Still waiting for chemotherapy to be banned since my father died from wasting disease caused by chemo.
I just love the nanny state government :(
