WASHINGTON – The supplement ephedra has been banned by the federal government.
The herbal stimulant was once very popular with athletes and bodybuilders as well as dieters. It has been blamed for 155 deaths and multiple heart attacks.
The ban is the first ever on a dietary supplement. The Food and Drug Administration announced in December it would ban the supplement in spring of 2004.
The supplement speeds up heart rate and can be harmful if misused.
Sales have plummeted in recent months.
