There are many reasons why the purchase of some drugs is monitored. Sometimes, it is simply due to private sector competition. If a company can buy a certain amount of a drug at a low price and re-sell it for a profit, the selling firm would like to know about it. Other times, during periods of legal uncertainty, certain drugs are hoarded for fear they will not be available down the road. Or, opportunists will purchase large amounts of the drug with hopes of re-selling it once it is no longer available on the “white” market. Finally, when a drug with legitimate uses is discovered to have additional uses which are perceived to be dangerous to society, the sale and purchase of the drug is often tracked as well. Ephedrine is one such drug ...

For many people, caffeine is a part of their daily lives. Ninety percent of the U.S. population uses caffeine at some point in their day. It might be coffee, soda, or in supplement form, but 9 out of 10 Americans enjoy its benefits each day. Caffeine is a nervous system stimulant which adds alertness and energy to the day of its users. Endurance athletes of all sports and backgrounds are well aware of the benefits of caffeine when training or engaging in sporting events. Caffeine has been proven in studies to improve the lung capacity and exercise endurance in long-distance athletes. Bodybuilders are well aware of the powers of caffeine. In the off-season, many trainers will take caffeine, or a supplement containing caffeine, to deliver some much-needed intensity in the gym and improve the quality of ...

Q: I'm a professional male model and someone showed me a diet about 5 years ago that is a bodybuilding type of diet. It really helped me keep my weight down and steady and it's been a great part of my career. But unfortunately, it's not as effective anymore and I'm more prone to cheats now. I don't know why that is, and it isn't important except for knowing why in order to fix it. Should I take ephedrine now that the diet isn't working as well? A: Since you didn't tell us much about what kind of diet it was, we'll assume you mean the standard, "high protein-moderate to low carb-moderate fat" diet. There are many reasons why a way of eating or exercising ceases to be effective. Knowing more information is probably best in order to conclude that ephedrine is ...

Q: Can you snort ephedrine? What would happen? A: Well, first you have to find it. It is available in small doses in cold medicines still, but has been ripped from the market in sports supplements for about two years. Luckily, that was recently overturned, but no one knows what's going to happen with it on a permanent basis. So it is legal to obtain it now, so I guess it would be legal to snort it. Then again, it wouldn't be one of the most intelligent things to do. And, if you want our opinion, you are sounding like a meth addict in the making! Put a trailer into the equation and you have a full blown hillbilly profile. But, to answer your question directly, if you snort it, it will not only sting like crap, it will hit you VERY ...

Q: What is guaifenesin and why is it in ephedrine products now? Do I have to worry about separate side effects from that? A: It’s actually a nasal decongestant also, and is now in most over the counter cold meds. I believe it’s so that they can legally sell ephedrine – though I think it’s also something that prevents people from buying it to make meth and other nasty recreational street drugs. I don’t believe it can be isolated. But if someone else has more information on that, I’d be glad to hear it. I didn’t have much time to research the whole meth connection. It’s harmless though, with no additional side effects.

Q: I heard that there is a Secretagogue called Tetravaline that is the newest thing for stimulating T3 release and T4 conversion. What's the deal on this and where can I buy it? A: Actually, it isn't that simple. You can't just go buy Tetravaline all by itself. Tetravaline actually isn't just one compound either; it's a mixture of compounds that increases the production and your body's manufacture of thyroid hormones. The results from studies are quite dramatic, actually, making it a great fat burner on its own or a great partner to other lipolytic formulas and ingredients like Neurotol or Dexafenadrine. It raises core temperature dramatically, but without the speedy effects of other compounds like ephedrine or Clen. Tetravaline assists in stimulating T3 so that the resting metabolic rate increases and results in enhanced rates of fat loss. The good news ...

Ninety percent of Americans consume some form of caffeine daily. Most choose coffee or soda as their delivery system, and depend upon its effects to stay awake and alert when facing the workday. There are many positive effects that caffeine has upon the bodybuilder looking to lose body fat or train harder. First off, caffeine raises energy levels and promotes mental awareness. For a trainer in the gym looking for the energy to train for 90 minutes, or achieve the mental focus to hit a new personal best on the bench press, caffeine is a wonderful tool. For pre-contest athletes, caffeine as part of an ECA stack (ephedrine, aspirin, and caffeine) is very effective for shedding body fat and curbing appetite. Caffeine improves breathing (excellent for getting through those long sets when lungs feel like they might explode). ...
