I manage an herbal health food store. My boss really doesn't sell ephedra based products, except in an herbal asthma tea which my clients rave about. They like it because it works and it's only $6 for a bag. Another thing that is ephedra based but has never given anyone a heart attack are lots of male enhancement pills which if I'm to believe my male clients works. I take herbal diet supplements. It's all about NOT ABUSING the product. You never hear in these news reports that this baseball player was abusing the products, that the other people took more than what was said on the label,etc.

In my day, we only had two or three illegal drugs to master.

I don't know how today's high school kids can keep up!

LOL, probably not too far off the mark. I myself am going to buy up all the ephedrine at my usual gas-coffee-ephedrine stop while it lasts. Then when I eventually run out, I'll just mail order it from Mexico. How hip is that?

“I’m gonna be the first one on the block to abuse this s---,” Tarnowski told reporters.

LOL!

I wouldn't be suprised if the drug lords lobbied the administration to ban ephedra. It wouldn't be the first time that an industry influenced regulators to boost its profits.

The first line says it all. And we all know how effective banning a drug is. This will do nothing but create new criminals without affecting the supply and demand at all.
