once and for all...IS EPHEDRINE CATABOLIC?

[MkZk]

Is it? Some have said so. Your opinion?

in higher doses i believe so yes - due to overcompensation by an increase in the calcium ion channel permeability or am i thinking of clen.....hmmmmm.

well in any case the effects can be mitigated with ketotifen, allowing you to get thebenefits of beta 2 receptor and beta3, which ephedrine stimulates as well.

In the doses commonly used, NO. This is supported by the original research showing that the combination of ephedrine and caffeine where effective for obesity. This study showed an ANTI-catabolic effect. It indirectly preserves muscle by shifting fuel source to fatty acids.

cockdezl - what happened? did they demote u?

In higher doses do you still think this is the case - i remember reading somewhere that it is catabolic at high doses but that might just be me confusing it wiht clen - its late
