The weight loss community was once abuzz with the discovery of a stimulant known as Ephedrine, which was shown to boost the metabolism and help burn off body fat. It was one of the more popular weight loss aids and fitness formulas to hit the shelves ever. Of course, that intrigue eventually gave way to the realization that there were many side effects that affected the heart and central nervous system.
And yet, there are apparently supplements that still contain this vile ingredient, which has been attributed to at least a few deaths in the U.S. A supplement called Metabothin appears to be circulating on the Web, even though Ephedrine has been banned in America. It's not clear whether you can still buy this product, but hopefully that is not the case and any mention of the supplement online is just residual.
