Diet warning

I was reading old fitness magazine and I found this diet warning in page 69 of their December 2006 issue. I am not sure if this pill issue has been resolve yet (please check FDA for any updates at http://www.fda.gov) but I just want to share this with you too. Be warn that there are dangerous drug you can buy online.

In 2004, The FDA banned Ephedra, an amphetamine-like herb used in weight-loss supplements. They've been linked to life-threatening heart palpitations an strokes. These drugs containing ephedra may still be found an ordered online, so beware.

Be wary of the supplements ads that boost rapid weight loss or instant energy, and check their ingredients list for ephedra or ma huang (the chinese name of the herb) advises James Dillard, M.D., medical director of the Rosenthal Center for Complimentary and Alternative Medicine at Columbia University in New York.
