Re: Re: Ummm.....

ephedra makes me want to do homework and write papers. Gets my mind in hyperdrive.

It makes me retarded. I can't focus on anything, even conversations. I get a sensory overload so I can't concentrate on any single thing. After a few days I just get real nauseous if I even try to eat and get headaches easily.

Re: Ummm.....

Explain how Ephedra makes your mind and body better!!!

1. mind: increased focus, attention, alertness, etc. sort of a super-power coffee.

2. body: you're kidding right? study after study has shown the effectiveness of ephedrine and ECA stack in SAFE weight loss. Millions of doses taken across the world, and a handful of bad outcomes, often by peolpe overdosing. if you overdose on water, you die from hydrosis, a metabolic state where enzyematic processes cease to occur because of diluted state.

Getting rid of ephedrine is all about clearing the path for the 2 or 3 current and pending big-drug-company weight loss drugs. duh...

just like banning tryptophan was to clear the way for prozac/sleeping pills/etc.

remember, the FDA is made up of former and future drug company execs who rotate in and back. do the math.

Can you tell me more about that bro?

FDA

Mr X, a VP of Drug Company Y, gets a political appointment to FDA. Since he has friends etc in the biz, he does what he can to help those friends. like getting rid of the competition (no patent over-the-counter stuff).

OR, he is a current FDA Commish/staffer/etc who wants to curry favor with the big drug companies so they will hire/rehire him as a consultant/employee when he leaves FDA. sometimes a wink and a nod, sometimes an explicit under-the-table agreement.

This revolving door is not the exception, it's the rule, and it sucks.
most FDA guys are former Drug Company execs.

Pro-hormones should have been banned a long time ago - if for nothing else, false advertisement.

No offense but this is the kind of attitude that slowly erodes away or personal freedoms. If the fda wants to actually help people instead of pretending to help people they should spend time making sure products are what they say they are and educating people with real info instead of media hype.
