[DeepZenPill]

there are still more deaths linked to ephedra than dnp

approx figures of ephedra deaths last year was 22,,compared to asprins 100+ and acetaminaphin's 400+

these figuers were posted in an excellent article i read in the NYT (too bad i cant find it now) regarding that baseball player

Well his roomate just posted on BSS that John had died from DNP....i dont know anymore details other then that....this is a real shocker because i know John knew more about DNP then anyone i know....when i say this bro was a guru he really was...

How this happened i dont know....but his roomate found him in his room last week i guess dead...

I'm truly sorry he passed away, but people generally don't die in locked rooms from DNP...they come out for food, or fresh air

The whole situation just doesn't sound right.

He could have been sleeping. It doesn't mention how they knew it was actually dnp though.

I agree, and why would someone's roommate go on their computer and post to a message board about it?

C'mon guys, I usually am the first to discard anectodal evidence bout drug dangers, but this shit is fucked. No one should ever take this insecticide, its poison. I remember reading about this in an organic chem class in college before it became popular. I think that new text with that small story helped inspire this. It was about how workers in the nitroglycerin factories of WW1 were extremely thin, they linked it to the byproduct with todays nomenclature as 2,4 dinitrophenol. This is the new way of standardizing the functional groups on a simple organic phenol ring. It denotes the location. This stuff was used as a weightloss drug until sufficient numbers of people died. I must remind you that in the times it was banned that there were no safety advocacy groups out there or trial lawyers wainting to pounce. This was back in the day where people died on the job just to keep the schedule. Obviously when it was banned I believe in the late "30's that it there was alot of reason why. Think about it. Early twentieth century bannning this, it must be pretty bad. This editorial of course, I can discuss the exact damage done and the repercussion of said damage more speciificallly

I must argue. I have used DNP numerous times (about 15 in 2 years) I simply disagree that DNP is all that dangerous when used under strict controlled conditions. YES this is a tradgedy that someones life was taken at the hands of this substance, however we do not know the circumstances in which he died. Many people who choose to do such a drug probably do other drugs aswell, there is no telling what truly caused this mans death but to solely blame it on a chemical alone isen't fair. It has been used in bodybuilding before and has yielded results that will continue to outweigh the risks.
