Are you kidding me? Why Ephedra?

So many other healthy and natural pills are out there for weight loss and people are still using Ephedra! I get so many people that want me to review those kind of products and I just won't review any ephedra products. It's just too deadly!

How is ephedra too deadly? Statistically, there are many over the counter products that are much worse

Aspirin is "deadly" if you take the whole bottle.
Most non-ephedra formulas are pure crap.

Any medication is deadly if abused or not taken as directed. The people that died from ephedra had a pre-existing medical condition, or did not follow the recommended dosage.
The labels on the products clearly state that it is not recommended for people with heart condition, etc....
Plus taking more than the recommended dosage is also not a good idea....in fact it's a STUPID idea! Read the damn label people and follow directions....it's simple as that.

I think obesity is probably more deadly than ephedra taken appropriately.

Have to agree with everyone, obesity is deadly!! Why ban something that is clearly helping with an epidemic. No one is banning cigarettes or alcohol.

Why is it that the FDA bans Ephedra, which clearly helps in weight loss, which is a good thing, but keeps hiking up the price of smokes and booze, which are bad things? GREED, GREED, $$$$$$$
