Anorex
Side Effects
While Anorex
and other ephedrine/caffeine-based supplements are very effective
fat-burners backed by sizable scientific research, they have been
associated with some potentially dangerous side effects. Some
of the more common adverse reactions people experience from taking
the ephedrine/caffeine stack are:
* nervousness
* dizziness
* tremors
* rapid heart rate
* headaches
* jitters
* palpitations
* insomnia, and
* increased blood pressure.
Although some might assume these are Anorex side effects specifically,
these adverse reactions are common to all ephedrine-based fat
burners.
Some people
simply cannot tolerate ephedrine's intense effects, and quickly
stop taking products containing it. Because of its potential dangerous
side effects, I highly recommend that you consult with your primary
care physician before taking any supplement with ephedrine. And
if you have a history of heart disease, or any other medical condition,
I would avoid products containing ephedrine (unless you get the
green light from your doctor.)
The widely documented and potentially harmful side effects associated
with ephedrine has prompted scientists from around the world to
research other similar compounds that offer the same powerful
thermogenic properties without the side effects. Within the past
few years, researchers have identified a new thermogenic compound
called synephrine, which is much safer than ephedrine. Because
of its unique combination of power and safety, many experts now
consider synephrine an even more effective thermogenic compound
than ephedrine.
While kola nut normally increases alertness and reduces fatigue,
as with caffeine, if you take too much you could get jittery and
your thoughts could get scattered. As long as you stay with the
recommended dose, these side effects are unlikely to occur. You
should not experience any adverse effects from the tyrosine or
kelp, either.
Some people with sensitive stomachs may have a problem with the
cayenne and/or the large amount of aspirin in Anorex. Cayenne
is a spice, and the reaction to spicy foods varies widely. Some
individuals can eat three-alarm chili without any problem, while
others find even mildly spicy food to be upsetting. Aspirin can
also cause upset stomach and even irritate the stomach lining
when taken on an ongoing basis. If you experience problems with
either of these ingredients, try taking Anorex with meals. This
will dilute the concentrations of these nutrients. If you still
have problems, switch to another product that does not contain
them.
