Ephedra Leaf Extract

[UGAthlete]

Been reading trying to decode the puzzle of all these different ephedra/ephedrine/etc.

I got some primatine tonight (ephedrine hcl) and the Yellow Haze (ephedra leave extract). Upon further reading, I've come across a couple posts (other sites) that said the ephedra leaves are kinda worthless.. I know most websites say the Yellow Haze has ephedra alkaloids in it, but those same sites also don't include the yohimbine hcl. The sites that do list the Ephedra Leaves DO include the yohimbine hcl. So, my guess is that they came out with a newer version w/ ephedra leave extract and put yohimbine in there to compensate?

Anybody care to shed some light on this? I kinda wondered a bit.. took one of the Yellow Haze on an empty stomach and didn't really feel much..

ephedrine is predominately a bronchial dilator and a mild central nervous system stimulator. your much better off using the more refined ephedrine hcl as you experience fewer side effects versus raw ephedra

Ok, so there is a difference between ephedra, ephedra leave extract, ephedrine hcl? Are any of those the same or have subdivisions? I'm just looking for the name of the chemical that was in all the original "good" products. Ma Huang extract? Etc

stick with ephedrine hcl if your looking to make the eca combo
