Ma Huang General Information
Ma Huang is a Chinese herb and a member of a primitive family of plants that look like thick, branching, connected straws. Ephedra nevadensis is a related species that grows wild in the American Southwest and is widely called “Mormon tea.” The stems of most Ephedra species contain the alkaloid ephedrine which is very valuable in the treatment of asthma and many other respiratory complaints. The stems are anti-viral, antidote, antispasmodic, diaphoretic, blood purifier, diuretic, pectoral, febrifuge, vasodilator, stimulant, and tonic. The young stems are best if eaten raw, though older stems can be used to make a medicinal tea. MaHuang is used as a stimulant for the central nervous system and heart muscle. The alkaloids in ephedra, ephedrine and pseudoephedrine dilate the bronchail tubes and also elevate blood pressure. These alkaloids are used in the bronchodialators for seasonal and chronic asthma.

Ma Huang Uses & Scientific Evidence For
Chinese herbalists use Ma Huang during the early stages of respiratory infections and also for the short-term treatment of certain kinds of asthma, eczema, hay fever, narcolepsy, and edema. The Ephedra plant also has antiviral effects, particularly against influenza, severe colds, non-sweat fevers, joint pain, coughing and shortness of breath, bronchial asthma, flu, chills, headache, congestion and edema. Unlike using the isolated or synthesized ephedrine, using the whole plant in alternative medicine is much more effective and rarely gives rise to serious side-effects. With extreme caution, and under a doctor's supervision, Ephedra is often used to enhance weight loss and to increase energy and endurance.

Ma Huang Safety & Interaction Information
Caution is advised in using Ma Huang as an overdose can cause high blood pressure, racing of the heart, confusion, nervous stupor, twitching, convolutions and in serious cases even death. This herb should not be used by people who are taking monoamine oxidase inhibitors, or suffering from high blood pressure, hyperthyroidism, glaucoma, or dehydration. When exercising it is imperative to insure proper hydration, especially when using Ephedra. Do not take during pregnancy or while breast feeding. The synthetic form of Ephedra is a main constituent in Ephedrine and has given Ephedra a bad reputation due to its misuse. Ephedrine is seen as a performance-boosting herb but is a forbidden substance in many organized sporting events and athletics and banned in many jurisdictions for sale or use.
