ephedra is a key ingredient in "fat loss pills"
most people know it as ephedrine
it is usually used in a stack called "ECA"
which is "Ephedrine, Caffeine, Aspirin"
close to summer time lots of health conscious people (go figure) use this stuff to help burn off a few lbs to look more lean for the beach
most places you buy this stuff, it is fake, or comes in 5mg capsules
25mg capsules used to be the normal amount, and the amount where you will feel a "high"
apparently this stuff has a high addiction rating but I never felt it
I took this stuff about 2 years ago for 1 month to get a pump before a workout (it will fill you with energy)
it worked great
but you develop a tolerance for this stuff incredibly fast
after my month stack of using it, i stopped, then only used it before my big basketball and soccer games to get me real jacked up to play (most of my team was taking this stuff actually)
a funny story, the one bball game when all 5 starters took straight ephedrine capsules, we won the game by well over 40 points
this stuff IS illegal now if it is inside a product containing more then 5mg of "ephedra"
but this law is not big time enforced
my 2 cents on this drug?
if you are using it 2 lose weight, Do Not! I have had lots of friends take the ECA stack or even straight ephedra and get fucked because they take to much (turning purple, constant perspiration, shakiness)
if you are using a controlled amount to get a pump for athletics, I say do it with caution, it raises your heart rate and could fuck you up (i contradict myself here, but i am against it for weight loss because these people are usually desperate and will take way over a proper dose)
and yes, i did say it can turn you purple!
