    Why ECA?

    Since ephedrine is such a powerful stimulant, then what's the point of compounding it with caffeine and aspirin? I'm especially puzzled by aspirin. Is it used to lower the blood pressure?

    I don't know really... Using 2 stimulants with different properties and effects is better than taking one. Umm.. asprin = thinning of blood, more blood flow possibly? Donno..

    Ephedrine and Caffeine work synergestically to increase thermogenesis. They work better together than they do alone. I dont wanna post all the science stuff, cuz Im being lazy today.

    From what I understand Aspirin, I think, was supposed to extend the life of the thermogenic so it would stay in the blood longer, but I dont remember if thats the only reason or not. Do a search on google or MSN.

    All I know is it works... For a boost anyway, I only take it as a workout stimulant.. not for fatloss.

    aspirin is used to prolong the life of the thermos in the blood...at least that is the main reason
    My opinions may have changed, but not the fact that I am right.

    I took 12.5 mg of Ephedrine HCL and 100 grams of caffeine and I gotta tell you, that's some extremely potent stuff. I'm still in overdrive even though I took this stuff some 5 hours ago. Amazing. I can only guess by how much this would accelerate fatloss.

    I feel like I'm cheating when i use it, cuz it works so well for leaning out... 4 weeks with a decent diet and you'll be shocked by how extreme the results are... at least for me they were... fat loss king imo...

    I'm trying to, dude! I've stepped it down from almost pack and a half per day. I used to smoke Marlboro reds now I smoke Mental Ultra Lights. I hope to one day buy nicotine gum. I went cold turkey a few times for a couple of months, but then I slipped back. I guess I'm not quitter material, lol

    maybe no SIDE effects... but I don't see how it could have no effect...

    You're already very lean, and from what I know about you, you always have been, perhaps that's why you haven't seen results...

    I don't feel an energy boost from the vasopro ephedrine HCL i take, but after 4 weeks, i can't definitely tell it's helped me lose bodyfat...

    I have never felt anything while taking ephedrine. I might try 37 grams of ephedrine stacked with 400 mg caffine. My heart rate dosent increase at all. No effects on me at all.
