Ephedra is getting scarce. Real ephedra with ephedra alkaloids have not been made by anyone for a year now. We have notices ephedra scams popping up, so you need to be aware. You may be able to get ephrdra at gorillavitamins.com.

Metabadrine is the only ephedra product available in the US. You may find products like Lipodrene that claims to have "legal" ephedra. The problem is they have ephedra leaf, and this part of the plant has no ephedra alkaloids.

Want to lose weight? Have someone pay you.

From the 2007 September Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine.

This will only work in an environment such as work, where the employer offers cash incentive to lose weight. UNC - Chapel Hill researchers studied more than 200 overweight or obese employees in North Carolina. The study revealed something astonishing: that overweight employees paid to lose weight were more successful at their efforts than employees who were not. It was mot revealed in the study if men or women were more motivated to shed the weight or if the participants used prescription drugs or over the counter supplements like ephedra products or the hoodia gordonii from South Africa, that is so popular.
