Before I begin this discussion of the best
fat burners (ephedrine / ephedra based), let me begin
with a caveat...
Stimulant based weight loss products are
effective, and have been clinically proven
to be so. However, they are not for everyone.
For a certain few individuals, ephedrine-based
fat burners can have serious health
ramifications - even death. So please, see your health
professional and read the product label
carefully before experimenting with any of
these products.

Special Note: Many of the following products have been discontinued or modified due to the controversy surrounding ephedra-based products. I've left these articles up "for your information". If you'd like to read about a quality ephedra - based product still on the market, read my review of NutriAmerica's Trimspa.
To begin our list of best fat burners is a product
named Thermicore.
Thermicore is made by Met-Rx, and it has
received the coveted honor of being "recommended"
by the independent body of scientists who
review sport and diet supplements at
supplementwatch.com. The main reason for the recommendation?
Thermicore is one of the few products
that actually delivers less than the FDA-recommended
daily dose of 24 mg. That's a big plus.
I like it because it features a timed-release formula
that leads to a much gentler ephedrine experience.

The next best fat burner on our list is Xenadrine RFA-1.
It's a decent product to be sure, but nowhere near as effective
as its advertising claims. Xenadrine is based on
what is known as the ECA stack. That's ephedrine,
caffeine, and aspirin all combined synergistically
in one powerful fat-busting formula. A daily dose
of Xenadrine RFA-1 delivers almost twice
the FDA-recommended amount of ephedrine - 40 grams.
It's recommended you start off with half doses
to assess your tolerance. For the full review of

Lastly, I'll discuss one of the all time best fat burners, MuscleTech's Hydroxycut.
It's another proven product based around the famous ECA
stack (as it's called). And although I'd like to
see the Hydroxycut formula revamped with some
newer and more promising additional ingredients,
there is still one major reason why I rate this as one
the best fat burners.
And why is that?
Because Hydroxycut delivers a single dose
in 4 capsules, it's much easier to start with a
very low dose to asses your tolerance. However,
a single dosage yields about 24mg of ephedrine
alkaloids. At the peak of the cycle, you take
this three times a day. You won't be sleeping much!
