Hi all. I just wanted to relay this article that I read to all that are using Stacker 2 or plan on trying it. It doesn't name Stacker 2 directly, but it does have to do with it's main ingredient Ephedra.
This may seem long and boring to some, but it's better to be bored and alive than entertained and dead. Well, maybe not all the time. ;)

"Dietary supplements that contain ephedra have been linked to serious cardiovascular and central nervous system events, some fatal.
Researchers reviewed 140 reports of adverse events related to ephedra use that were reported over a 2 year period. In these reports, the most frequent adverse events were hypertension, palpitations, heart attack, stroke, & seizures. Ten events were fatal and 13 led to permanent disability.
Researchers advise against ephedra use for people who are pregnant or have a history of heart disease, stroke, psychiatric disorders, asthma, thyroid or kidney disease, diabetes, or seizures."


I hope this helped some of you out. I feel it's better to be safe than sorry.
Later everyone.

FUNNY..NOT HA HA FUNNY..
I`ve been ON THE STACKER now for awhile and have dropped about 25 pounds and would have dropped alot more if it weren`t for my favorite food....BUD LIGHT!!
I`ve gotta say though I am incredibly WIRED and
VERY MOODY when I`m hittin` the Stacker.
I`m almost 40 and wanted to try and REDUCE the
beer gut. When i lived in California a few years
back I was like Ant.....METH,METH,and more METH after that. I sometimes feel the same way when I`ve taken Stacker regularly.
Good public awareness post MOOSEN...I would also reccommend not using it as the only resort to weight loss.....J/M/P......

They make it seem safe but when lots of people use it, BAM! We get hit with this tidbit!
Ok time to be scared.

Those are side effects with almost all strong thermogenics because of their ability to increase your heart rate.

it's actually written on the bottle that if you have heart problems or hypertension not to take them.

I had a real bad panic attack from those fuckers, but i've had hypertension for a while and it just send my heart racing real fast and i almost lost my fuckin mind on them. Plus i won't mention names but i've seen plenty of these morons at parties poping stackers with like vodka not smart.

Be very careful taking any pills.

I can tell you from experience that they are dangerous. I took a similar product, Xenadrine, for one month. Although I lost about 15 pounds, I was always wired and felt very fucked up at times.

My gastroenterologist said that I should not take that product, due to what you posted.

Sound advise. Besides, most of these contain, you guessed it, CAFFEINE, which is why it speeds up your heart rate. No secret there!



WOOF WOOF!

I take Diet Fuel by Twinlab as an energy boost for when I lift, and I'd be lying if I said it hasn't altered my heart rate for the worse.

Paramedics perspective.
Most patients I encounter(and I have seen quite a few) that have a problem with an ECA stack like Stacker 2 are people who take a higher dose than recomended,have an unknown hypersensitivity to it or have a pre-existing medical condition like cardiac problems. These patients do have things like resting heart rates that are very high and very high blood pressures. The ephedra and caffine in these products are very potent and can put undue stress on some people. Like any drug use with caution and follow directions. Trust me more is not better. Also watch your coffe intake if you use an ECA stack.

Rookie you may be onto something there notice how Staker is awfully close to the word Stalker.

Shoulda been OJ's defense "it wasn't me oh no no no, It was all stackers fault, made me crazy."

Stacker 2 is safe for most people. So is Advil. But if you take the whole bottle you are going to need to remeber three things.

Rookie it has happend before. Those of us in public safety just do talk too much about it. We don't wan't to create a panic . Do we? It also gives public the false illusion that people like Gonzostyle are not getting to us.

I took Stacker 2 for a month. From teh first one I was getting really bad headaches.. Figureing the boost of energy I was getting wasn't getting burned off since I sit on my ass all day at my job. :) After a while I started only using it before I worked out. That was great I had lots of energy no headaches.. I didn't lose any weight because I was on the TACO BELL diet as I took stacker 2. :)

The funny thing about ECM is their catalogue.. They suggest to you that if you want to buy some of the other products that you should have used Stacker 2 first... Kinda like Crack.. you should be using cocaine first then step up to Crack :)

Ephadrine risk have been know for a very long time. It is not risky if you take in small dosages as directed. It when people start take 2 or 3 or 4 times more than what is recommended. I hear about stupid young teens taking em just to get "high" and hyper. WHATS WRONG WITH YOU YOUNGER FUCKS, GO BUY AN EIGHT BALL LIKE IN THE GOOD OLE DAYS.

I've been taking it when I feel really sluggish or when I've had a big lunch and I don't really want to eat for the rest of the day. I was doing some research on Ephedrine and the site says if you don't want to deal with the caffeine, just take Ephedra (Ephedrine in its natural state) and drink lots of green tea (which is supposed to increase its potency).
