I recall we were discussing this very combination in another note,
however I don't remember which one it was in. If someone does
remember, please crosspost .0 into that note as well.
Though the Herbalife Green/Beige Thermojetics products used to have
Chinese Ma Huang in them (but NOT kola nut), this product formula was
redesigned and rereleased earlier this year to remove the Chinese Ma
Huang ingredient.
Along with this new formula, the caution/warning label has also been
removed that used to caution against use of this product if you had
high blood pressure, cardiovascular disease, or were pregnant/lactating
(due to the Chinese Ma Huang).
The new formula is:
Thermojetics Green: Balu, Yerba Mate Extract, Bladderwrack,
Meadowsweet, Garcinia Cambogia, Valarian Root,
Green Tea Extract, Fumitory Herb and Honeysuckle.
Thermojetics Beige has not changed, and that formula is:
Thermojetics Beige: Hawthorn Berry, Cascara Sagrada, Uva Ursi,
Alfalfa, Cornsilk, Parsley, Marshmallow Root,
Magnolia Bark, Pau D'Arco, Pfaffia Paniculata,
Astragalus (Bai Chi), Fennel Seed, Golden Rod,
and Licorice.

| I personally like Ma Huang...it gives me LOTS of energy and the
formula I take it with is an incredible appetite suppressant...
I am an independent distributor for Equinox International. One of
their product lines is a Weight Loss System. I've been using the
system for approx. 4 weeks now, and have lost about 15 lbs!
One of the products in the system is called Fast Start, which includes
the Ma Huang, but it doesn't have Kola Nut. Because of the controversy
with Ma Huang, Equinox has decided to make a version of Fast Start
without the Ma Huang, but will also continue to carry the one with the Ma
Huang...which I am certainly glad about! Hey, I've FINALLY found
something that is working for me...I AM NOT GOING TO CHANGE IT AT ALL!!
I'm just going to continue to lose weight and have lots of energy!
The way I look at it, if someone is going to take 10 aspirin, they'll
probably have an adverse effect. People need to take the recommended
dosages. Yes, there will always be some people who just can't take
certain things. So they shouldn't take them.
Whatever...I think I need to take some Fast Start...need some energy!

Herbalife has done the same - they had changed the formula for the
Thermojetics Green tablet to not include the Chinese Ma Huang, but the
the demand was so great for the prior one that they reintroduced the
product. Now it is possible to choose which version to use. With
regard to the note in .0, that product does not, and never had, the
Kola Nut ingredient in it.
I personally prefer the new Thermojetics Green tablet because of the
formulation, and also because there's no more caution label needed for
people with cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, or
pregnancy/lactating.
Herbalife products works differently in comparison to appetite
suppressant and stimulant products. It is nutrition-based and
contains ingredients that both cleanse, detoxify, and heal the body,
so it gets to the weight problem at the source. I've lost 20 pounds
now.
