Ephedra Safe Or Not?

[TheDarkSideNinja]

ChanManFo - Thta's incorrect i never used A.S. i am natural for the current time. I have thought of a cycle and is a possibility in the future!!! I'm not against anything just think everyone needs to do their research before trying things thats it to keep them safe.

Little Peter - I'm looking forward to those studies. Thanks for your time and effort in looking for them i appreciate it.

You're thinking about juicing, yet you condemn ephedra as an unsafe supplement. Keep in mind that ephedra simply boosts basal metabolism by 2 to 3%, which is somewhat similar to the effect one gets by doing a nice speedwalk- HARDLY dangerous unless you have a pre-existing condition.

Juice but no ephedra b/c its not safe......LMFAO

NO...

First off POANTRX or whatever your name is i can tell your def. a novice by how ignorant u can be sometimes. I never said A.S. was safe or safer than Ephedra. I simply with either a risk will always be possible and i know your bullshit comeback to that is going to be you can walk outside and get hit by a car just as easily but ive been around for a while so i know this shit. Don't let the name full u im far from a novice and sure know a hell of a lot more then u!!! End of discussion bro. ~JT~

I have stopped using ephedra such as hydroxycut and xenedrine and have starting making my own ECA, which includes ephedrine, which is not the same as ephedra. I see alot of people thinking these 2 are the same.

Agreed. All the studies are done on ephedrine I believe. No one knows of the adverse effects of ephedra. The numerous other alkoids in ephdra extract other than the ephedrine alkoid may not have desireable efffects on the body. Thus, It is a lot better just to get the pure shit: Ephedrine HCL.

As for the prostate question. IT can swell the prostate... but only temporarily (to my knowledge). I have never had a problem with it.

were can i get the eph HCL, i have used anything and everything for the last 5 years. very consistantly. i usually take 50mg prior to very workout. my current supplty is thermo burn. i love it so far. ingredients-maHuang,caffiene, whit willow, colleus foskolli, yohimbine, hydroxycitric acid, l-carnitine, synephrine,and chromium, no fucked up drops or sides like with hydoxycut or xenadrine.

i think i read in an ironman that ephedra lasts 5-6 hours, drops off, then at hour 9 comes back for a weaker second pass. ephedrine lasts just the 6 hours, but is thought to be more intense.
