A recent study by researchers from the University of California, Davis determined that a low-dose ephedra and caffeine combination was beneficial for weight loss. In this nine month study, the researchers found that overweight women who received a combination of 40 mg ephedra + 100 mg caffeine daily (plus vitamins, minerals, and omega-3 fatty acids) lost nearly 17 pounds. Perhaps more interesting, considering the recent ephedra "scare", was the improvement in several critical parameters, such as heart rate, triglycerides, blood sugar levels, blood pressure and insulin levels. Wild, eh?Participants in the study also reported more energy and less fatigue (no surprise here). Side effects were relatively minor and included insomnia, dry mouth, irregular heart beat, and nervousness. In the end, the researchers concluded..."A dietary supplement containing a low potency ephedra/caffeine mixture appeared safe and effective in causing loss of weight and body fat, and improving several metabolic parameters, including insulin sensitivity and lipid profiles when tested under physician supervision. Such supplements could be a useful tool to assist with weight loss."You can read the abstract of this study (published in the International Journal of Obesity) here!Un fortunately, despite the lifting of the ephedra ban last year, ephedra is still relatively hard to find. If you're interested in purchasing the ephedra stack, read my review of BetaFuel (a 10 mg ephedra stack) here!
First of all, we've got a few new fat burner reviews on UltimatefatBurner.com...1) BetaFuel: Ever since the U.S. ephedra ban (on products containing 10mg or less of ephedra per serving) was lifted by Judge Tena Campbell of the U. S. District Court, visitors to this Web site have been asking me over and over...
Where can I find ephedra?
You see, even though low dose ephedra is no longer illegal, most of the major supplement retailers continue to manufacture their fat burners without it. Many have been stung by frivolous law suits in the past, and reformulating their products to include ephedra may make them vulnerable once again.

Many of you have expressed interest in seeing this Xenadrine Hardcore reviewed -- after all, Cytodyne (the makers of this product) has a significant brand awareness, and many of you were fans of the original ephedra-based Xenadrine RFA-1.
Read the full review here! What else is new? Well, Will Brink has updated his superb "Diet Supplement Revealed" -- it's bigger and better than ever. If you're into supplements, and want to ensure you spend your dollars on products that work, you'll be interested in this publication. Check out my review of the updated "Diet Supplements Revealed" here!Also, we've closed down our online supplement store. For the last year or so, it's been a money-losing proposition for us. After all, it's very hard to write balanced, unbiased reviews of products if you have a vested interest in selling them. So in the interest of providing our visitors with real reviews they can trust, the store has continued to suffer. In the end, it simply didn't make any sense to keep it open. However, I do recognize that some of you are indeed looking for a credible online resource from which to purchase your supplements. For that reason, we've partnered with Affordable Supplements This company will provide you with same quality product and stellar service you've come to expect from our own now closed store. Looking for supplements? Visit Affordable Supplements today!Phew! Now you're updated. Enjoy your summer, and don't forget to stay in shape!
