So I picked up some Ephedra from the gas station.... And want an eca stack....

Hey I didn't want to jumble up my other topic so here's a different one.
I picked up "pure ephedrene - alkaloid extract" from the gas station for like a dollar. It says it has 240mg of Ephedra Extract, (leaves/stems)[24mg ephedrine group alkaloids]
now is this even ephedra or what? If it is should I get some caffeine and aspririn and make a stack?

And also, they're also selling stacker2 and some other things. They might be the ephedra kind but I didn't look. Would that be good?
I was going to order online but if I can find some sort of eca or ephedra offline it would be much easier.

And I feel like a big dummy as I've been lifting for quite some time, but I'm not too big on the supplements, especially cutting ones

thanks again

yes what you have is ephedra, and yes you can stack it with caffand aspirin. stack as follows; 25mg ephedra, 200mg caff, 325mg aspirin. if i were you i would look to see if your gas station carries ephedrine hcl (commonly known as mini-thins) cause come april 12 say bye to your ephedra source. and in my personal opinion, ephedrine hcl is much better than epedra (the herbal equivalent of pure ephedrine hcl). don't take more than 100mgs of ephedrine daily. divide your doses three times daily if your goal is fat burning, but remember this is no substitute for training and diet. good luck bro

Hey I know that's how the stack goes, but one tablet of this ephedra has 240mg per serving! or do I only count the 24mg ephedrine group alkaloids?

Also, at what times should I take it, I was thinking right after breakfast, a couple hours later, and after lunch, as I don't want it to keep me awake at night if it may.
And is it most responsive to low carbs, or complex carbs only or what?

thanks again for any help!!!

count it for 24mg not 240. i am currently on the eca stack and i take it as follows: first 25 min after meal one, second 30min before workout, last dose 30 min after post-workout meal. to avoid sleep probs make sure you have at least 6-8hrs between last dose and sleep time
