    It has changed formula and now is just pretty much a huge expensive dose of caffeine.

    Caffeine is one of the few proven supplements. But manufacturers package it up with a bunch of other crap to oversell you. If anything drink coffee, a diet soda or a caffeine pill pre-workout and you get the same benefit without the added cost.

    Best combination ever....caffeine + L-Theanine...One gives you a boost, the other prevents your from feeling jittery + crash caused by caffeine. it cost under 0,30$ per serving. Saves you money, you get a boost and it helps you to stay focus without any *kitten* side effects. It also cuts down on your appetite.

    Very interesting combo.

    The best combination is caffeine, ephedrine & aspirin. ECA has been used and tested for decades and proven to work. L-Theanine can help but it removes some of the stimulant effects (which some people like).

    ECA really does work, but it can cause heart problems in people with pre-existing conditions (and not everyone knows whether they have a preexisting condition). If you're otherwise healthy, I wouldn't hesitate to try it, but getting ephedrine in the US is a pain thanks to methheads. Outside of the US it's a lot easier.

    Any fatburner available in the US is crap. Products like Hydroxycut used to actually work, but the ephedrine ban erased that.

    But there's always the option of just counting calories in order to lose weight. :-)

    Pure ephedrine is banned (I believe) however in the UK & US it can be purchased in the form of Nasal Decongestants, apparently...........

    Up to 400 mg per day of caffiene is the safe amount recommended for healthy adults.

    Yes, it's available in the US "behind the counter" in asthma meds.

    Some truck stops also sell it still.

    ECA really does work. BUT.... BUT, use the absolute minimum effective/tolerated dose.

    It's effective in a very very very small dose. and there's absolutely no need to use more.

    It's been 15+ years since my adventure with ECA... I lost over 30 pounds in less than 30 days... and kept it off for over 2 years. I used the minimum dose. A friend... liked the effects so much he dosed 3-4 times a day.... He has permanent damage. Were it not a prohibited substance, I would likely have used it again more recently.

    I'm interested. What mg do you use? And your weight?

    162 lbs , the recommended dose is 200 mg of L-Theanine with 100 mg of caffeine....But I take 200 mg of L-Theanine with 200 mg of caffeine.... I personally get best of both worlds with that ratio. Those who can tolerate coffee more might even go as far as 200 Caffeine, 100 mg of L-Theanine, but I would feel slightly jittery. You basically have to search the right ratio, we all have different tolerance. And take them only on workout days or else your body will tolerate more and more the caffeine.

    Thanks.

    I'm good with caffeine.

    Do you feel any effect taking 200mg L-Theanine alone? That's what I'm thinking of doing.
