    Ephedra-

    Hello,

    I was just wondering if anyone here has ever used ephedra, caffiene in combination with aspirin. I was reading that aspirin makes the ephedra,caffeine combo more effective? And if so, what was the dose of aspirin you were taking? (I realize ephedra is banned in the US but I'm from Canada where it's still...well not legal, but you can buy it....)

    Thanks!

    I think you mean ephedrine not ephedra. Ephedrine is legal in both the US and Canada but Ephedra is illegal in both countries.

    Many of us here have used ECA and with good results. I personally find the asprin useless and I prefer yohimbine hcl but its not recommended for everyone. I believe yohimbine hcl is illegal in Canada anyway though.

    "...Ephedra is illegal..."

    Technically, you're wrong. Ephedra is illegal to SELL in the US. It is not illegal to possess and use.

    To answer the original question, I think most people were taking the ephedra/caffiene/aspirin combo using a regular strength aspirin (325mg or less).

    As long as we're getting technical...

    Youre wrong. Ephedra can be sold legally, it just cant be marketed and sold as a dietary supplement. And since theres no other medical use for ephedra (unlike ephedrine), no one currently sells it.

    Yes, if you were to run a Botanical Supply store and sell it for people interested in cultivating plants for botanical interests, than yes, you can grow/sell Ephedra Sinica/Ma Huang. I'd bet you could also sell bulk plant material. You cannot sell a pill, extract, or anything like EPhedra in a dietary supplement, though.
