is ephedra bad for you? what re the side effects?

Thanks!

Ephedra has just been banned by the FDA because of it's harmful side effects. Over 150 people died. What is does is speed your heart up increasing the risk of heart attack, stroke, dizziness and death. It effects brain chemistry, and I think maybe motor skills(in some cases). Tell your friend to stop taking ephedra. I'm taking ephedra free hydroxycut and i am getting results. Hope this helps
