![]() ![]() The mechanisms behind this are not fully understood, but this aids in weight loss as well. It also, in binding with adenosine receptors in the brain, triggers the release of adrenaline which increases cAMP levels further.Īspirin inhibits prostaglandin production outside of the cells, which, in conjunction with caffeine, greatly prolongs the thermogenic effects and increased metabolism by substaining elevated cAMP levels.Įphedrine also has an anorectic, or appetite suppressant effect. This is done via the production of phosphodiesterase inside the cells, and prostaglandins outside the cell, which both lower cAMP levels within the cell.Ĭaffeine inhibits the production of phosphodiesterase inside the cell and therefore slows the cAMP breakdown. However, the body's negative feedback system then activates to normalize the metabolism. The noradrenaline in the body then acts on white adipose tissue by increasing cAMP levels, which is said to be a thermogenic effect, raising body temperature by about 2 degrees and increasing the user's metabolism by 10% in conjunction with the rest of the stack. Ephedrine acts as a beta agonist and stimulates the release of noradrenaline. The effects of the ECA stack in weight loss are primarily due to the ephedrine component. When taken together, the 'CA' part of the stack very closely resemble Amphetamines, without the Amphetamine side effects (also not as strong as taking Amphetamines). I got great results from doing 25mg E/100mg C/160mg A, and I only used it once a day.Īn example of a starting dose would be 12.5 mg ephedrine, 100mg caffeine, and between 60 and 160 mg of aspirin. Usually no more than 25 mg of ephedrine, 200 mg of caffeine and 325 mg of Aspirin is consumed in a single dose. Recommended dose: Consume 1-3 times per day in a ratio of 1:10:5 to 1:10:15 ratio of Ephedrine:Caffeine:Aspirin. If you decide that you can handle more, then go for it. **IMPORTANT: When first starting this stack, consume half the recommended dose to assess your tolerance. What is the proper dosing amounts with this stack? I do 4 weeks on, taken 3-5 times a week, and then 2-3 weeks off. Beware: Taking an aspirin every day can be harmful, so be sure to cycle properly. From my personal experience, the aspirin makes little (or no) difference in the stack, but some people swear by it, and it is rumored that the aspirin lengthens the thermogenic properties of the other 2 components. Taken by themselves, caffeine and ephedrine have thermogenic and stimulant effects, but when taken together, their effectiveness is compounded. There are many different brands, so you might have to ask an associate to point you in the right direction.Įphedra/Ephedrine, Caffeine, and Aspirin. At the pharmacy near me, it is sold under the name 'Bronkaid' and it does also contain Guaifenesin. It is regulated, so you will need to provide your ID to buy it. ![]() You can obtain it LEGALLY at any pharmacy, behind the counter. To give you a rough idea, Ephedra (Ma Huang) is to Marijuana as THC is to Ephedrine. Most people will suggest using Ephedrine over Ephedra since you can more easily control the dosage amounts (you know exactly how many mg you are consuming). What is the difference between Ephedra and Ephedrine?Įphedra (Ma Huang) is the herbal form of Ephedrine. It also causes an increase in blood pressure and enhanced oxygen flow in the body. It stimulates the CNS and causes an increase in heart rate, body temperature, concentration, energy, alertness, and also acts as a bronchodilator. ***Do not even consider this stack if you have any previous heart conditions or high blood pressure.Įphedrine is both a stimulant and a thermogenic, as well as an appetite suppressor. **If you have any doubts about using this stack, consult your Physician. I'll cover Ephedra first, and then the stack second. Since I started using the ECA stack a month or two ago, I've been receiving a lot of PM's about it, so here's some info that might help some people out who might be interested in trying it. ![]()
