Ephedra News Stories

News stories published in recent times cite a research study that states ephedra is responsible for a disproportionate share of adverse events within the universe

of dietary supplements. In order for such statistics to be meaningful, they must be considered in the context of ephedra's widespread popularity.

Also ephedra's intense negative press coverage plays a significant role. Simply looking at the number of reported adverse events alone, without comparing it to the corresponding millions of people who take the herb, is misleading.

Ephedra Adverse Reports are Meaningless

Adverse reports about ephedra are meaningless because of the way they are collected. Bias is created by heavily reported events in the media. Some ephedra products have 300 mg of caffeine per capsule. While the label says take one, we know many will take two, and some will take three at a time. A person with a headache who is dehydrated, hypoglycemic, and has taken enormous amounts of caffeine and ephedra will, after watching the news, report this as an ephedra reaction, and not a caffeine, dehydration or hypoglycemia reaction. This is just one effect of the sensationalism of ephedra effects in the press and by grandstanding politicians.

Ephedra and ephedrine are sold on the internet in a few independent health food stores under a variety of brand names. Ephedra is widely used for weight loss. These products often contain other stimulants, such as caffeine, which may have synergistic effects and increase the potential for adverse effects.
