ephedra is a shrub nativ to china that yealds L&DL-ephedrine how is it sxtracted?
Powderize the ephedra, make it basic with NaOH and then steam distill it over. Neutralize the
distillate with HCl acid, then use a rotovap (or hair dryer) to evaporate the water.
Also, I'm pretty sure that Ephedra only yields the active isomers, that's l-ephedrine and D-pseudo.
Plants of the genus "Sida" (S cordifolia, S rhombifolia etc) also yield Ephedrines. Do an A/B on Sida cordifolia extract ;^)

∙ 14y agohow do you extract ephedrine out of almond extract
Almond oil doesn't yield ephedrine, but synthetic bitter almond oil yields Benzaldehyde which can be fermented to give l-PAC (l-Phenylacetyl carbinol) which can be reduced with Al foil & Mercury chloride (Al/Hg amalgam) to get l-ephedrine (l is the active isomer of ephedrine, it reduces to d-DMPEA)

Is ephedra the same as ephedra alkaloid?
There is no such thing as Ephedra Alkaloids. The reason is because Ephedra, Ma Haung and Sida Cordifolia are the herbs and Ephedrine Alkaloids is the active ingredient in them. Think of it as coffee beans and caffeine. Coffee, tea, cocoa are some of the herbs and beans that have the active ingredient caffeine. This is why you don't ask what the difference is between Ephedra and Ephedra Alkaloids because there is no such thing as Ephedra (herb) Alkaloids. It's like asking if coffee is the same as coffee caffeine. People will look at you funny. Get the real ephedra. Beware of companies selling fakes called Ephedra Extract.

Is ephedra extract the same as ephedra?
My research has shown that ephedra extract is a derivative of the plant that has had the alkaloids removed. It is my understanding that the ephedra extract is not as strong as the alkaloids and is also legal in all 50 states. It was ephedra alkaloids that were banned in some states, although many states later reversed that decision. Ephedra Extract is a scam. You might as well go for Ephedra Free. The real ephedra has alkaloids. They are not illegal as long as it is used for nasal decongestion or as bronchodilators. People use it to lose weight or to gain extra energy too. However, they may have harmful side effects. Usually Ephedra Extract comes from plants like Ephedra Viridis or Nevadensis, those does not contain a certain Alkaloid that contains Ephedrine which is very effective for weight loss. Ephedra Sinica or Sida Cordifolia are 2 other Ephedra Plants both containing Alkaloids and therefore they are considered to be "real" Ephedra.
