Your body is always using fats, proteins and carbohydrates as energy sources all day long. Not ephedrine. The ephedrine is just a stimulant. You'll just be burning slightly more of those macronutrients during your workout after you take it.

Ephedine is a thermogenic: it works by raising your body temperature. Your body burns more energy to keep it's equilibrium.

Energy source is only from calories. It may seem like a supplement is giving you energy, but in essence they are energy "enhancers".
