Xenadrine & ripped fuel dosage ?

I wonder if anyone else has noticed this other than me. Xenadrine and Ripped Fuel (and Diet Fuel too) all have the same amounts of EC per serving yet xenadrine says not to exceed 2 servings a day and ripped fuel (and diet fuel) say not to exceed 3 servings. I never took more than 6 diet fuel (2 servings) the last time I cut (which is equal to the dosage in 4 xenadrine) and switched over to ripped fuel this time (ok, I had to go cheap ;) ) for with the clen (2 wk/2 wk). Anyone know why this is? I am guessing its just because of the funny "science" that goes into the non-FDA supps. Just wondering if there is a real answer to this :).

Ripped Fuel

334 mg Ma Huang extract (standardized for 6% ephedrine)

Xenadrine has a couple extra fat burning things in it making it a little more stronger

make you own
60 ephedrine 6.99 local gas station
60 no doz 5.99 drug store
bottle of asprine 1.99 drug store
total: 15 bucks

hope this helps :)

The top one for ripped fuel is what is on the bottle so the amount of ephedrine is the same as Xenadrine (ok, 1 mg off). So I guess the extra stuff that they throw in Xenadrine makes them feel its best to take no more than 4. It was just something semi-interesting I noticed.

Next time around I am going to make my own ECA stack like you posted, this time I was too busy and it was just easier to pick up one bottle of diet fuel instead :)
