Judge Strikes Down FDA Ban on Ephedra

SALT LAKE CITY - A federal judge Thursday struck down the FDA ban on ephedra, the once-popular weight-loss aid that was yanked from the market after it was linked to dozens of deaths.
The judge ruled in favor of a Utah company that challenged the Food and Drug Administration's ban. Utah-based Nutraceutical claimed in its lawsuit that ephedra "has been safely consumed" for hundreds of years.
Supplements that included ephedra have been widely used for weight loss and bodybuilding, but have linked to 155 deaths, including that of Baltimore Orioles pitching prospect Steve Bechler. The FDA ordered the substance off the market in April 2004.
Judge Tena Campbell's ruling sends the matter back to the FDA "for further rulemaking consistent with the court's opinion" and keeps the agency from enforcement action against the companies.
FDA officials did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
Company president Bruce Hough said the decision is about "protecting the public's access to safe and effective dietary supplements."

Can you make meth with it?
Bringing back legal speed!
What 55?
If I'm not mistaken, that pitcher that died was exercising excessively and hadn't eaten in several days.
Granted, ephedra makes you not hungry...but I've never heard of it making you stupid. Most of the cases I've heard that someone died from it was because they didn't take as directed....and usually took too much for too long.
Many who took it had heart problems and ignored the obvious warnings not to.
Dude, the way I see it, if you're stuipd enough to get yourself killed on ephedra, it's just weeding out the gene pool.

agree.
Read the directions.
Follow the directions.
How the tough is that???
Once again, more morons getting stuff banned that was harmless.
But, good to see this court wising up.
The problem is that some folks don't know they have a heart condition until it's too late.
I don't know how in favor of this I am. I know ephedra works, but it does have it's dangerous side too.
That's true of everything, though....
Did you know taking too much Tylenol can destroy your liver?
Did you know you can die from water posioning?
I guess that's true guys, but I can tell you from experience that it has weird effects on some people.
Like I mentioned in another thread, I did some promotional work for a vitamin supplement company a few years back and used their ephedra products for only two weeks before the promotions started. The ephedra would cause me to be short of breath and would raise my heart rate to max workout levels way too early. At that time I was in peak shape, too, only about 7 percent body fat. I used only the recommended dose and only took it, like I said, for a couple of weeks.
I don't have heart problems, was in top shape, and didn't abuse it, but I can tell you it wasn't good for me.
It's also a strong blood thinner when you take too much. I found that out a couple years ago when I was taking a bunch everyday for tension headaches and I started getting really scary gross bruises everywhere. I went to the doctor because I didn't know what was going on, and my blood panel came out okay - it was just taking too much Tylenol that did it.
Dang~ 7%?
I used to be in great shape too--damn kids!
That was in 2001. Whenever I'd go below that I'd feel like crap. I'm certainly not 7% right now, but I've got a summer makeover goal to get back to where I used to be or better.Dang~ 7%?
I used to be in great shape too--damn kids!
But I understand the kids thing. Your focus suddenly shifts to your little ones. Sometimes being a dad can be tough for a narcisist like myself!!
