I take 1 asprin, 2 caffine pills, and 3 8mg Ephedrine pills (E.C.A STACK)

I take it 5 days a week but thats me

So is it better to go out and get caffine, ephedrine, and aspirin, or to buy one of the eca-stack products. I see the logic in just buying the raw supps, its probably more cost efficient. Why did you choose to do that and not get one of the stacks?

I'd drop the aspirin, hard on the liver and I've failed to see any real studies proving it's effectiveness.

I'd start off with 100mg of caffeine, and 10mg of ephedrine, and work up to 20mg ephedrine and 200mg of caffeine. With 8mg ephedrine pills it's sort of tricky though. so just get it as close as you can.

McBain, hey bro, I can say that I've used ephedrine products for about 5 years and ECA isn't the same as EC. EC will reduce appetite and help to loose weight in that way (for me) but ECA makes you sweat your ass off. I'm not certain, but I think I've read that the aspirin is important because its supposed to help to keep your body burning calories normally, while EC will made the body lower the burning of cals due to the increased body heat. Maybe someone can clarify this

I've taken max 10 for 3 years, hydroxycut 1 year, xenadrine .5 year

30 mg ephedrine
100 mg caffine

do you have actual studies that prove that aspirin is hard on the liver? My doctor told me it is the safest pain killer as far as your liver is concerned. Maybe your confusing it with acetomenophine

ok thanx guys for the help, would it be a bad idea to start taking creatine with the eca stack

doh my mistake

Sorry about that

I think taking creatine during cutting is fine, while you may retain a bit of water so this wouldn't be good for say a comp, I've read that creatine is a good addition to any cutting cycle to try to preserve lean mass.
