The thing about Ephedra is that it was a tested pharmaceutical compound.

Only stuff that raises the metabolic rate will work - speed, coke, and meth are good, but have their downsides, obviously.

One thing that people forget is that all the energy that your body epxends helps you get thin.

A recent study showed that keeping your house 2 degrees (Celcius) {about 5 deg F} cooler causes you to burn as many extra callories in one day as going to a 15 minute walk.


Repeated moderate exercise does more to get your BMR up than this sort of medication.

Caffeine also helps you to burn callories - it can raise the BMR (and consequently callorific use) by up to 15%.
