"But it really makes me wonder why the FDA was so active in restricting ephedra. True, there were some deaths associated with the abuse of ephedra, but it only amounted to a small handful of people. In contrast, over 1,200 people die each and every year from aspirin and the FDA is doing nothing to take aspirin off the market. "

that stuff makes you feel like your on crack…but its not that bad.

I think we should just make everything illegal…that way noone can do anything that might have a negative impact on their health!
