All claims of Ephedra products. No mention of the risk of stroke, heart attack, high blood pressure, hypertension, or the many other dangerous side effects associated with Ephedra.

Ephedra, derived from an Asiatic shrub called Ma Huang, is the herbal form of ephedrine and is a central nervous system stimulant that behaves in the body much like an amphetamine. In other words, Ephedra is speed. This herbal supplement is used to help people lose weight, boost their energy levels and improve athletic performance. And while it may produce results, it has terrible consequences for many users.

Ephedra is a natural herbal substance. It is also a very powerful drug – so powerful that some companies market pills containing Ephedra as a "safe alternative to street drugs" like ecstasy and amphetamines. But the problem is, Ephedra is anything but safe.

Use of Ephedra products has led to reports of stroke, heart attack, seizures & death. Products like Metabolife and Xenadrine have faced million dollar lawsuits due to these adverse health problems caused by the herb.
