P chan, i dont know if that slimming caps shes taking contains ma-huang or ephedrine. A lot of slimming capsules contains the chinese herb ma-huang, hydroxicut, xenadrine, stacker. It has been used as a bronchial decongestant even up to now. The reason why ma-huang can help you lose is that it increases Basal Metabolic rate thereby increasing the calorie burning, but too much of ma-huang can increase blood pressure since it is a stimulant.
