(https://www.samorini.it/doc1/alt_aut/sz/terry-a-study-of-ephedra-nevadensis.pdf) Which explains why it never worked as well as Sudafed, in my experience. But because of the lack of ephedrine, the DEA determined it was not a plant worth serious concern under The Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act. (https://www.deadiversion.usdoj.gov/fed_regs/rules/2008/fr0711.htm) <br /><br />Further, methamphetamine and ephedrine are not synonymous—though the later is used to manufacture the former, they are distinct compounds. The leap from using ephedrine to the approval/use of illicit drugs is apples to oranges. Ephedrine is of recognized medical legitimacy. Herbs, from which much of modern medicines were derived, were listed under the word of wisdom as “to be used with prudence and thanksgiving.” Take that as you will.

I had never heard of Saleratus until recently while reading a historical pioneer/romance novel series of the wagon trains coming west to Oregon, where the women would find this 'stuff' on ground and would gather, save, as well as use it for their biscuits. Thanks for sharing your story on your find of this. Hope it worked well for you when you tried it in your baking.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15312365781994285232noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821208734852385863.post-54503191663742323682016-07-25T15:43:02.095-07:002016-07-25T15:43:02.095-07:00I'd love a copy.

My mom remembers her grandmother making a dish called "Hasty Dick." I believe it is what you call in the book, "Lumpy Dick." That's a confirmation that Mom's memory is pretty great. She also knew the pioneer woman, Mary Garner, called"The Last Leaf." Thanks for linking the past with my present.

It is most commonly used to deal with asthma, cough, bronchitis and nasal congestion. As a weight loss aide however, people have used ephedrine hydrochloride recently. In line with the "Journal of the American Medical Association," ephredra and ephedrine produced only modest short-term weight loss in a overview of studies. There were no long-term studies, and the side effects noted were critical.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://ephedrinediet.org/eca-xtreme-why-you-should-never-buy-this-weight-loss-product/" rel="nofollow">ephedrine dosage</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821208734852385863.post-64060224041836077322012-10-12T10:42:29.780-07:002012-10-12T10:42:29.780-07:00This comment is forwarded from Becky, with her com...This comment is forwarded from Becky, with her comments on the book. Becky says:<br /><br />Brock - Your book immediately drew me in and took me back to my pioneer ancestors and my own growing up years in the Bear River Valley. Boy, do I have a better appreciation for the effort it took to gather foods as well as prepare them! I love the way you've woven authentic pioneer stories, recipes, and facts into a delightful read.<br /><br />Congratulations! <br />Becky CatronBrockhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04803597960095682855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821208734852385863.post-43795889994921045662012-10-03T16:39:37.274-07:002012-10-03T16:39:37.274-07:00Brock,

Of course, she didn't call it North Wind. I remember begin surprised at the time that she would ever make anything sweet, which, of course, was not true at all (Exhibit A: the carrot cookies she would mail to me in NJ during college. They were coveted by my firends).Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03504694524282139605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821208734852385863.post-77477814422350862862012-09-20T17:15:19.706-07:002012-09-20T17:15:19.706-07:00Congratulations!!Congratulations!!Annette Bethkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08498791479254104257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821208734852385863.post-40541184534809196582012-08-23T10:17:25.790-07:002012-08-23T10:17:25.790-07:00Hello!
