Xenadrine + Hydroxycut Clarification


So I'm bored and I noticed a few threads on here with people under the impression that Xenedrine and Hydroxycut still have ephedrine.

Xenedrine and Hydroxycut are now made using pseudoephedrine (no where near as effective as epehdrine/ephedra). They are also full of other many useless "proprietary" mixes that don't really do jack other than wear away at your wallet.

Please take the time to research your products before spending your money.

Also, if you are planning to use clen you might as well start shooting up steroids because you are essentially getting a whole lot of side effects for not very much rewards. Clen is powerful, but not without more side effects than most anabolics out there.

There's nothing better than Epehedrine and Caffeine, but make sure you take it without the aspirin as it inhibits protein synthesis.

Research what you put in your body. Peace.

Good idea. Research everything before putting it into your body. You certainly want to know what it's going to do for you and more importantly - to you.

Some of these things are perfectly safe, others are quite useless, some are rather dangerous. I see more and more people talking about using clen as a cutting aid. It's not even legally available in the united states according to my pharmacist - even with a prescription. Although it's not a steroid, we don't have steroid discussions here at DF so we want to be careful to let this become one of those threads.

Doh... Did not know this, then I must apologise about some of the threads I created :confused:

What about pro-hormones?

I think the idea is just to avoid things that may be illegal since there are plenty of other forums dedicated almost soley to discussing "illegal supplimentation". There is no need for it here. PH's are illegal in the US right now I don't know about other countries.

But any suppliment that can be legally purchased can and SHOULD be discussed - it's beneficial to share the good and bad about it.

Ha! me sees a loophole. No steroid talk but lets talk about anabolic sympathomimetics.
Lets start a sticky on this baby now. How do you take yours

Oh and clen can be legally purchased, just not to be taken

Oh boy, I can see this one ending badly.

Let's not go there or we may get spanked.

I've heard that 90mg of pseudoephedrine (3 sudafed tabs) can provide similar effects to 25-30mg of ephedrine in a stack.

Even pseudoephedrine is becoming harder to buy these days though, as most decongestants now use phenylephrine.

I can't seem to find anything that says how much pseudoephedrine those products contain.

I don't own either product so I can't really look at the label. I was just looking online and couldn't find the specifics. Everything in the ingredients online looks like "special blends" and doesn't come right out and say pseudoephedrine.

People, ephedrine is still LEGALLY available. Why buy pseudoephedrine which is nowhere near as effective? I see no f'ing point.
