Ephedra Diet Pills Promote Thermogenics
Weight loss products like Ephedra Diet Pills which contain thermogenics, induce
weight loss by raising your body temperature and burning more calories.
Thermogenic weight loss products work by increasing the body’s adipose tissue
metabolism. This in turn generates heat, causing you body to burn extra
calories.
Use of ephedra diet pills enables them to not just increase the body’s
metabolism (for burning calories), but also to curb hunger and appetite.
Thermogenic weight loss products have been pretty effective in burning fat and
reducing weight, however, there is a not of caution in their usage.
Though thermogenic weight loss products can help you to lose those extra pounds
off, they have side effects. They stimulate the central nervous system in the
same way that caffeine and ephedrine do and this can be very harmful if such
products are used in the long run.
Ephedra Diet Pills are a Tool: Add Diet and Exercise
There are studies which reveal that when thermogenic weight loss products are
used for a short period say five to six weeks, body fat is reduced, but
prolonged use can make a person tolerant to them. When used for more than eight
weeks, the body develops a tolerance to the product and very little weight loss
is seen. That's why it is imperative that you should add diet and exercise to
your program and not just rely on diet pills with ephedra.
Ephedra Diet Pills Ban Ruled Invalid
On April 13, 2005 the 2004 Final Rule issued by the FDA banning Ephedra was
overturned by a Federal Judge (Case No. 2:04CV409 TC). An appeal was filed on
June 13, 2005 however it will take some time for this case to be decided.
First there was an emphasis on exercise, and then came along diet
kibble. Today, the FDA is approving the first prescription diet drug for
dogs.
Raids on Counterfeit Ephedra Diet
Pills Operation - Feb, 2007
Authorities raided two health food stores in
New Jersey, seizing thousands of counterfeit bottles of a Stacker 2
ephedra Diet Pill, smashing an operation that they said made profits of
$50,000 a month through retail stores and on the internet.
The bottles were designed to look just like Stacker 2. The bust took
place in Bergen County.
Do you have the fake diet pills? The word "supplements" on some of the
labels was missing a "p." Also, the formulation said it contained
ephedra, but there was on ephedra in the diet pills. Just caffeine and
aspirin!
$3.5 million in alleged profits from the sale of the counterfeit Stacker
2 were also seized.
The counterfeit merchandise for was sold for $75 each online, out of
their Nutricentro Health Food Store, on Bergenline Avenue in West New
York and a North Arlington, NJ store, Roots Health Food Store, according
to news reports.
Stacker 2 was manufactured by a New Jersey based company NVE
Pharmaceuticals and once contained ephedra that was banned by the
federal FDA in 2004.
