Ephedra risks, which have been known for several thousand years by the Chinese medicinal practioners, are largely ignored by the energy drink crowd today. Ephedra comes from a shrub from the Asian regions of the world and is commonly known by the Chinese as ma huang. Somehow this twiggy shrub has made its way into mainstream American culture in a not so good way.

And hit it did. When people began raving about the abundant energy and weight loss results problem began. News traveled fast, but as with many unproven products, the law of unintended consequences led to its banning by the FDA in 2004. Reports of heart palpitations, stokes, heart attacks, and even deaths elevated ephedra risks to national news. The get thin and stay energetic at any cost led some people to their graves. Now this,of course, are the extreme cases. I do know of one friend who took an ephedra product everyday for eight months and nearly had a stroke. The resulting medical procedure to preserve his life was to artificially induce cardiac arrest, then jump start the heart to put it back into a natural rhythm. The long term damage for this individual disallows consumption on any nervous system stimulant (including caffeinated coffee or beverages) for the rest of his life.

Consider the risks in using this approach to reducing bodyfat and/or making it through the day? Let's first examine the issue of energy. That fact that anyone needs to use a nervous system stimulant (such as caffeine, ephedra, gurana root, etc...) to get through the day indicates a nutritional problem. How many people do you know who can't jump start the day without a few cups of coffee? Of course not! Human biochemistry begins to shift at the age of 25 and by 39 we notice that our energy supply isn't what is once was. Some people begin to rely on coffee or begin using caffeine or ephedra laced energy drinks to make up the energy deficit. This is a direct result of the cells in the body not being able to produce energy like they once did. There is an answer to all of this. Cell renewal! Cell renewal is the process by which you put in the botanical compounds required by your evolutionary DNA to produce abundant mitochondrial ATP and fuel your entire system.

Nature provides every plant based compound necessary to provide all the energy you need.
