nope bro, not similar at all. synephrine is suppose to increase fat loss without CNS stimulation.

Bitter Orange(Citrus Aurantium) is a good alternative to ephedra based products. You certainly won't get as much of a kick that you would on ephedrine but you still get a good bit of energy. A lot of the companies are switching over to Citrus Aurantium instead of using MaHuang.

this wont last.. most insurance carries have put citrus aurantium on their drop list...

its OK but its not ephedrine or Norephedrine..

it is an A1 agonist, if memory serves.. but have not looked at it in a LONG time.

I wonder what OTC stuff we're going to have left? Fortunately, I'm in the U.S. where I have access to alot of stuff you don't but eventually, they'll ban everything I take..

Yep, if it's good and it works, they'll soon find a way to ban it!

You're very welcome!

I have to take my ECA with a cup of coffee just to get a little buzz off of it.

MYSTICAL YOU ARE KIDDING RIGHT?

[Mystical]

No way man, I am not kidding at all. I take 50mg of Ephedrine, 200mg caffeine, and 325mg aspirin, and don't feel a damn thing unless I wash them down with a large black coffee. Even then all I feel is a slight dizziness for 30 minutes.

I was taking 6 Charge a day and not feeling a damn thing.

I kid you not. ECA have little effect on me for some reason.

[Friscochick]

Well your a damn nut then! LOL JK... i go all nuts..but after awhile it'll settle down

hmm too bad too!

[Fyre]

I know it's really odd that you don't feel much on the ECA stack Mystical. You know me, I take an ephedrine and a yohimbine and I'm freakin wired for the entire day. I shovelled the whole parking lot the other day cuz I was so wired!

I do 2 Xenadrine in the AM; 2-1,000mg Yohimbe when I ingest some protein and 2 more Xenadrine in the afternoon.

I missed my afternoon dosage one day and I was driving home from work, stuck in rush hour hell traffic and was nodding out really bad....

Not to be repetitive as I posted this same question in the Ephedra post, but Frye, have you ever tried Taraxatone?

synephrine, as above is a alpha1 agonist.. the other constiuent octopamine is a beta 3 agonist (but "seems" to have no effect in humans)

[scientist]

Bitter oranges according to the scientific literature does not have synephrine and when it is found it is in such a small dosage that this cannot be extracted at a reasonable price. Suggest you study all the scientific literature about it before buying it. Try to obtain scientific papers that confirm that bitter orange (fruits) really contains synephrine. Chinese speak always about bitter orange, herbs.
