Isn't the main ingredient of this stuff Ma Huang? If so, this is a wonderful herb if taken as directed. A product with Ma Huang in it, let me lose over 100 pounds back in 1998. (It gave me my life back.) Like anything else, it can be harmful if an overdose is taken. Hell, aspirin will kill you if you take a whole bottle. BTW, a federal judge just lifted the ban on Ma Huang. He said the "evidence" used to get it banned was basically hyped up, if not cooked up.

No it is sassafras oil, made from the root of the sassafras plant.

There's a guy in the place
He's got a bittersweet face
And he goes by the name of Ebeneezer Goode
His friends call him Eezer and he is the main geezer
And he'll vibe about the place like no other man could
He's refined, he's sublime, he makes you feel fine
Though very much maligned and misunderstood
But if you know Eezer he's a real crowd pleaser
He's ever so good, he's Ebeneezer Goode
You can see that he's mischievious, mysterious and devious
When he circulates amongst the people in the place
But once you know he's fun and something of a genius
He gives a grin that goes around from face to face to face
Backwards and then forwards, forwards and then backwards
Eezer is the geezer who loves to muscle in
That's about the time the crowd all shout the name of Eezer
As he's kotcheled in the corner, laughing by the bass binEbeneezer Goode, leading light of the scene
Know what I mean, see
He created the vibe
He takes you for a ride and as if by design
The party ignites like he's comin alive
He takes you to the top, shakes you all around
Then back down, you know as he gets mellow
Then as smooth as the groove that is making you move
He glides into your mind with a sunny Hello
A gentleman of leisure, he's there for your pleasure
But go easy on old Eezer he's the love you could lose
Extraordinary fellow, like Mr. Punchinello
He's the kind of geezer who must never be abused
When you're in town and Ebeneezer is around
You can sense a presence in the sound of the crowd
He gets them all at it, the party starts rocking
The people get excited it's time to shout loud -

Not sure where the misunderstanding is but:
Pseudoephedrine is present in some cold remedies sold over the counter (e.g. Nurofen Cold and Flu in the UK).
Ephedrine is more potent, is amphetamine-like in effect, and can I believe be boiled up to make methamphetamine, also many people use as a diet pill.
MDMA is a specific chemical substance called Methylenedioxymethamphetamine.
To describe ephedrine and caffeine as another form of MDMA is nonsensical.
So herbal ectsasy is no different to having a cold remedy with a cup of coffee (does perk you up quite a bit, but not in anywhere the same league as MDMA!).
