The Pentagon is forbidding its military installations worldwide from selling products containing ephedra, a chemical cousin to amphetamines that's often found in so-called "fat-burning" diet supplements, CBS News reports.
While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration continues its years-long debate about whether to ban the substance, the Pentagon says it's time to act. Ephedra has been linked to an increased risk of heart attacks, strokes and seizures in recent medical studies. And more than 30 active duty military personnel, some in their early 20s, have died while taking the products, CBS News says.
