Kristi, to quote Trainerdan in this monster ECA strack thread in the exercise forum:
Quote:
You must be VERY careful to read the bottle before purchasing/using any ephedrine based product, as certain health conditions can be made worse if ephedrine (or any stimulant for that matter) is consumed. Off the top of my head, I would say high blood pressure, thyroid disorders, heart diesase, diabetes, hypogyclemia ... hmm ... there's a few more. Just read the bottle.

The label on any ECA product will have a very long warning and list of pre-existing conditions which will preclude you from using the product. I would double check that label and heed the warnings if I were you.
Re the CLA - the amount necessary for fat loss and muscle growth is approx 3.4g a day. This is far more than we get from meat and/or dairy - it works out to 4 or 5 pills of 1g each (as the active ingredient in the CLA is only 780mg on average).
