Ephedra Sinica
Also known as: Ma-Huang, Mormon Tea
An evergreen perennial shrub, native to the steppes of Northern China
where it is considered to be one of the 50 most fundamental herbs.
Growing only up to 12"-16" tall. It doesn't have leaves, instead it only
produces rigid, narrow, blue-green branches making an ever-widening
mat. It is in flower from May to June, and the seeds ripen from Aug to
September. The flowers are dioecious (individual flowers are either male
or female, but only one sex is to be found on any one plant so both
male and female plants must be grown if seed is required) The plant is
not self-fertile.
It has high concentrations of the various Ephedrine alkaloids and it has
them in the naturally balanced state. Its a whole herb, and can be
used in the form of the dried "stems" as a tea. The tea is used as a
bronchial dilator--very helpful for asthmatics, and like coffee, gently
stimulating to the central nervous system. Its not dangerous when used
at a reasonable dosage (a cup or two) as an herbal tea. When the
Ephedrine is concentrated (made into a drug, no longer an herb) then it
can certainly be dangerous. It is suggested not to be used as a white
powdered concentrate that can overstimulate the heart! In any form,
Ma-huang is not a good herb to use if you are pregnant, nursing, very
young, very old, or with a preexisting heart condition.
