Ephedra is a plant so they didn't change the chemical make-up, just the dose size.

It's been used for over 5,000 years!

cocaine. the real mans stimulant.







but seriously, coffee == good. My dad always gets this really good stuff... grown in tanzania in the same field banana trees (so it naturally has a hint of banana). Fair trade coffee. Home ground ftw!
ive drank coffee since was prolly 10ish...
no cream no sugar. black is the best imo.

anyone have any open pantry's around their house? they have a deal going on right now where its any size coffee/capacino (sp?) for 25c. I fricken jumped on that.

How on earth do you get a doctor to perscribe that? What's it used to treat? (if you don't mind me asking)
It's used to treat ADD or ADHD. Believe it or not, somehow if you give amphetamines to someone with ADD it calms them down and helps them concentrate. Aderall is basically the same thing as cocaine, it just doesn't make you numb if you snort it.

LOL .... that's the same as ridalen ...... it's a stimulant to someone without ADD or ADHD.

uhhhh ..... Jon ..... do you know how much tylenol it takes to OD? you'd puke it up before you'd OD on it .......... kinda like how you'd die from asphyxiation before you can OD on weed. I think the last I heard was that you need to smoke like 8 pounds in an hour or something stupid like that.

To OD on weed would be a heck of a way to go. I'm sure you would puke first though.

didn't they create a new ephedra that wasn't nearly as dangerous or something? that's how it got back on the market?
It was never really taken off the market. They were just no longer allowed to sell it as a work out supplement. You can still buy it as an over the counter "asthma" medication.
