I had some questions come in about
Ephedra. So I
have put together this short article to get you some info. Just to fill
some of you in , Ephedra was taken off the market last year , but it is
now back on the market and ready for consumers. This product seems to
be the most wanted weight loss product. They cant keep this stuff on
the shelves since it was given the “OK” to be sold again. Make sure you
read some of the common sense rules below before using Ephedra.
Ephedra (also known as Ma huang, Chinese Ephedra
and epitonin) is the worlds oldest medicine. The Chinese discovered
ephedra more than 5000 years ago. Research has shown that ephedra
increases metabolism and helps promote weight loss, relaxes the air
passages in the lungs to help treat asthma and cough, promotes
perspiration to help a person recover from a minor cold and helps
promote urination to help relieve edema. Ephedra has been widely
researched for its thermogenic (fat burning) properties. Research has
show that ephedra helps promote the loss of fat while helping spare
lean muscle tissue, a highly sought-after property that prescription
diet medications still have not been able to reproduce.
Safety Tips
As ephedra is a stimulant and a thermogenic, it
should NOT be used by people / in situations where these properties
might be harmful. There are some common sense rules about using ephedra:
Do not use ephedra if you have any medical
problems as the use of a stimulant might overtax your system. Do not
use ephedra if your activity / environment will prevent you from
dissipating heat. Your body core temperature might exceed safe levels.
And do not take more than the manufacturer's recommended amount.
What this means is: If you have a heart condition,
do not take ephedra. And if you plan to wear clothes to raise your body
temperature, do not take ephedra. And do not think that playing
baseball on a hot muggy day will counteract these two common sense
conditions and make it okay to take ephedra.
