Outta Curiosity: Ephedrine

[drinkrum]

Since we're all about getting cut, how many guys here have used an ephedrine-based product?

I've used Ripped Fuel, Ripped Fuel Extreme, Xenadrine RF-1, Hydroxycut, and the original ECA Stack. These drugs (even at their rec. dose) affect me very well -- my heart goes through the roof (I know it's unhealthy), and the weight comes off.

But let me tell you: if you're on them, their effects on sexual function are a lot worse than finasteride. (at least for me). Hypertension has been known to do this anyway -- it's one of the leading causes of impotence. I mean, your dick is not only flaccid 100% of the time, but it is of cold-swimming-pool variety.

Anyway, how many of you all have used them? Got the same side effects (or diff. ones)?

edphedrine did the same thing to me. I thought It was only me I took it for years and even though I've been off for at least 6 months things still aren't back to normal. They are much better though.

I took it for only 2 weeks last month. I havent had a libido in a while. Not sure if its from ephedra or not or when it exactly happened. I'm also not sure if it's because Stabbers just getting older

I seemed to get more boners when I was on that stuff to be honest. Maybe because I had more energy to wrestle the pink dolphin :laugh:

I stopped after I started getting palpitations. Very frightening feeling.
