Ephedra sinica (ma huang), is the source of the alkaloid ephedrine. It has been traditionally used in traditional Chinese medicines, and is often used as a bronchodilator.
Ephedrine is not only used as an oral nasal decongestant but also as an effective fat fighter. It is found in cough medicines as well as fat-burning supplements. Ephedrine / ephedra is very effective at suppressing your appetite and increasing your metabolic rate.
80% of weight loss through ephedrine is through it's ability to curb cravings and to increase metabolism (by approx. 3-5%). Some users find that adding 200 mg of caffeine will create a more thermogenic effect. You may also add up to 300 mg of aspirin which may help to prolong the effects created by the other two ingredients. This is called an ECA(ephedrine, caffeine, aspirin) stack.
If you combine the use of ephedrine with a proper diet including high-quality protein (lean beef, game meat, lean chicken, eggs, fish, and whey), essential fats (nuts, seeds, flaxseed oil, fish oils, and krill oil), and fibre-rich carbohydrates (vegetables, fruits, whole grains), you will be able to reach your goal and more importantly, keep the weight off. Always remember to drink lots of water! It is also important to always eat breakfast, and to take your last serving at least 5-6 hrs before you go to bed.
As a rule of thumb, it is recommended that you do not ephedrine for more than 7 consecutive days. Some people take them for 5 straight days on and 2 days off, some opt for a 2 days on followed by 2 days off, or 2 weeks straight followed by one week off. As our body adjusts and becomes tolerant to supplements, it is always best to cycle them on and off.
