Health » High-Dose Ephedra Pills Still Illegal, FDA Says
Apr 15, 2005

Reuters

The FDA outlawed ephedra a year ago after linking the herb to deaths, heart attacks and strokes. Ephedra was promoted for shedding pounds, boosting energy and enhancing athletic performance, and makers insisted it was safe when used as directed.
On Thursday, a court in Utah ruled on a challenge to the ban from Nutraceutical International Corp. and said the FDA had failed to show low ephedra doses posed a "significant or unreasonable risk."
