How do you guys come off of ehedrine/ECA?

[scott825]

Someone please help..Is there some type of substitute I can use.I have been very dependent on this stuff for a long time now.Sometimes I take like six ephedrines throughout the day.It is fucking my sleep really bad also. Help.

If you want to quit altogether, you could slowly ween yourself off it by cutting back on the dosage a little bit every week.

OR, you could substitute the ECA for Ma Huang/Guarana (or some similar stimulant).

The bad news is that you have merely 'tranfered' your addiction from one thing to another.
The good news is that you are not dependant on that particular drug and you allow your ECA receptors to go back to normal levels.

Personally, I have taken supplements to help me achieve my physical goals, but losing sleep is where I draw the line.

Hope it all works out for you.

Idiot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dude - I was hooked on ECA too - for years... especially since I was mad on my cycling and it kept me revving...

You have a speed addiction of sorts.........

I later got bladder cancer..... the doctor believes (they can never know for sure - but I know it was the caffeine, if not the ephedrine!!!) that the caffeine portion was to blame. I was consuming abou 1g caffeine a day.........

Caffeine destroys B-vits... ephedrine enhances and releases noradrenaline (norepinephrine)..... that is what you are addicted to....

Get yourself some extra B-Vits, plus some inositol (a B vitamin), cut your ECA dose each day over a week or two to stop headaches/withdrawals... and you will be ok... it isn't hugely addictive what you are on - but you do have a dependancy.

Otherwise, carry on and become a neurotic insomniac with health problems (inflamed prostate etc) later on...

ECA is safe - but not forever.......

20+ years

Why worry about life. You'll never get out of it alive.
I've been using the ECA stack for over 20 years. I used to cycle it years ago. But as I got older the natural energy of the body decreased. I need it more than ever now. I even throw Ritalin in with it on some days. And a few other energy boosters that are generally not available to the public. But I make sure I never take any stimulants after mid afternoon. That way I can get my sleep.

OR, you could substitute the ECA for Ma Huang/Guarana (or some similar stimulant).

This is the same stuff. The former (EC) is the active ingredient. The latter two are the herbal forms of EC.

im w/ SG on this one...

3 options IMHO:

---stabilized oxygen. One bottle of the good stuff is 45 bucks and lasts 6 months. Keeps metabolism high in cells that don't ordinarily get much O2 (white fat).

---CLA.


--2 grams Cordyceps Sinensis taken with meals will keep you at your peak. A little expensive, but my favorite of the 3.

Thanks for the advice.One of the things I am worried the most about is the long term effects..

Backdoc,,Where would I buy those items.I dont think you would find them at GNC..
