: : : How much Yohimbe should I take daily for it to be an effective fat burner? I am stacking it with eph/caf/asp. I have 500 mg. capsules of yohimbe bark extract.
: : Yohimbe made me horny, but I never lost fat on it. I took 2 750mg. tablets a day. They say most of the high-milligram stuff isn't real but the stuff did make me very horny for about 3 weeks straight. Oh, I wasn't trying to lose weight at the time. I read in MM2K it may have thermogenic properties and help with losing fat. They seem to believe in the pharmaceutical grade 5.4 mg. stuff.
: 750mg! Whoa nellie, that would make a horse horny! You should take 8mg or 'script HCL twice a day with EAC if you want the fat burning to work! Anarchy in the USA!
When You say that you're "stacking", I assume
that you're taking it along with ephedrine,
caffeine, and aspirin. If the Yohimbe is potent
(potentcy varies greatly in the health food
store extracts), you're messing around with
a potentially deadly combination.
Just taking it with a cup of coffee is enough to
cause a very unpleasant speedy trip.
Ephedrine and caffeine are both amines, and
Yohimbe is a monoamine oxidase inhibitor, which
keeps your bod from bing able to metabolize amines.
