Scammed?

How much Ephedrine HCL per cap? That's the important thing. Does it say? If not, then yeah.

Not your fault though, easy mistake to make for a newbie. Gotta hate those fucking bullshit supplement companies naming their snake oil after shit that actually works.

It reminds me of that "steroid" selling website which sells shit like "CLEN-500", which of course has no clenbuterol in it but they claim it's "a natural substitute!!!111!". Fucking cockroaches, I absolutely despise the (bodybuilding) supplement industry.

...

At least it has DMAA.

The flashier the sign, the shittier the product

Also words like
>mega
>nitro
>turbo
>super
>extreme

I've actually gotten this same exact product before because it was on sale for super cheap. Like other people in this thread have said it would probably be cheaper to buy the raw materials. That being said high tech pharm in my experience is a good brand and their products aren't complete crap like some others. I like to take them while I'm at work because it keeps me from having any kind of hunger the whole day when I skip lunch and gives me similar energy effects as a strong energy drink with no drop

ephedra=/=ephedrine

It's a huge dick move on their part, I'm sorry.

They're pretty damn similar though

Ephedra contains both ephedrine and pseudoephedrine, so you're getting about half of what you might think you are getting.

i found on internet that DMAA is dangerous, is it?

fda.gov/Food/DietarySupplements/ProductsIngredients/ucm346576.htm

It's dangerous in the same way caffeine is dangerous. If you have a preexisting heart condition or overdose, it can hurt you. Even methamphetamine is prescribed as a medication under the trade name Desoxyn.

Studies have found that supplement companies selling ephedrine or ephedra can have actual dosages higher than the listed dosage by between 50% and 200% so you're not really sure how much you're getting anyways

Only by anecdote can I disagree. I personally feel that a 200mg caffeine pill and a 25mg ephedrine sulfate pill gives me better results that most EC containing preworkouts (with the exception of Boston Loyd's which also contains DMAA and maybe amphetamines). I am actually curious and will be rounding up some supplements to test this for myself. I will post gas chromatography and NMR spectroscopy data in its own thread when I have managed to acquire and test some supplements.

have you ever tried something with it?

Just buy bulk powder from powdercity, mix it and encapsulate it yourself. Much cheaper, much less margin for error.

So what you're saying is he should make meth out of these?

I'd say there's a pretty big margin of error with pure ephedrine power, at least tell him to get some mg accurate scales

you can't buy bulk ephedrine from powdercity

It follows that DIY encapsulation would entail getting a scale. Notice how I didn't add, "get a filler", "buy 00 grade capsules", "get a mortar and pestle" etc..

He can figure it out on his own.
