High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Ephedra, from the plant Ephedra sinica, has been used as a herbal remedy in traditional Chinese medicine for 5,000 years for the treatment of asthma and hay fever, as well as for the common cold. Known in Chinese as ma huang, ephedra is a stimulant which constricts blood vessels and increases blood pressure and heart rate.

"By focusing on the intersection between the pharmaceutical industry and popular culture, Alex Taylor succeeds in telling one of the great tales of American civilization - the heroic effort to conquer the common cold. Both scholarly and enteraining, crammed full with colorful and exotic detail, Amazing Mentholatum is an amazing achievement." --Jonathan Kirsch, Los Angeles based author, attorney, and book review columnist"I loved this book. Played out in the prairie factories of Wichita and the mint fields of Japan - and luxuriously illustrated - this is a tale of an early-twentieth-century battle royal between patent medicines, of Horatio Alger-style entrepreneurship, hucksterism and good works, vividly portrayed against a backdrop of the formative years of today's multi-billion-dollar industry devoted to the common cold as it coevolved with government regulation to curb its colorful and sometimes lethal excesses." --George H.
