Alcohol is dangerous if overused also.

Anyone here want to ban the use of alcohol?

Cigarettes,what about them?

Thank God we have the government to keep us safe we are all such morons.

Ephedra, once hugely popular for weight loss and bodybuilding, has been linked to 155 deaths and dozens more heart attacks and strokes.

Aspirin kills thousands a year.... Ban aspirin! ;) This is pretty dumb.

now that natural ephedra is outlawed... look for pharmaceuticals to come out with a clone drug that helps people lose wait, at 3-5 hundred dollars a month, that has as it's primary affect, rapid weight loss, and as it's primary complication... death by sudden heart attack.

but since somebody will make millions on it, IT will be legal.
Eventually, all natural herbal remedies will be outlawed, except for chamomille tea...

Government needs to go on it's own regulatory diet and weight loss plan. I suggest that stomach stapling might be ineffective, perhaps a removal of about 15 feet of small intestine, AND a stomach stapling... would help the regulation addicts get over their habit.
