If I remember correctly, Tyrosine is an alpha agitator, and Yohimbe is a beta antagonist and results in a moderate rise in blood pressure which, when done at higher dosages will cause a heart attack.

Only coke can kill from that list? Are you sure about that?

I see Anaconda took care of explaining the joke for me.

The FDA is stupid. They are completely reactionary in nature. Yes, DMAA is a vaso-constrictor, and if you take too much you could die.

"Dihydrogen Monoxide (DHMO) is a colorless and odorless chemical compound, also referred to by some as Dihydrogen Oxide, Hydrogen Hydroxide, Hydronium Hydroxide, or simply Hydric acid. Its basis is the highly reactive hydroxyl radical, a species shown to mutate DNA, denature proteins, disrupt cell membranes, and chemically alter critical neurotransmitters. The atomic components of DHMO are found in a number of caustic, explosive and poisonous compounds such as Sulfuric Acid, Nitroglycerine and Ethyl Alcohol."

Under the correct context, ANYTHING can sound scary.

Then I stand corrected. Clearly the only moran here is me.

You dont understand... things like Adderall and Phentermine are totally safe because they are sold by extremely large, influential pharmaceutical companies that dole out campaign contributions right, left & center.

Pretty much

I've used DMAA for a long time without any adverse affects. As long as you're no an idiot and take huge doses I think its fairly benign. If I have a heart attack I'll let you all know...

But seriously, DMAA doesn't even make my heart race like ephedrine did.

I took aderall for about a decade to just get through school... hope it's not an issue. But I have no interest in stimulants, other than the 1 cup of coffee I have each day.

Adderall though is as bad if not worse than any stimulant I've tried. I tried ephedrine and jacked, neither was as much of a stimulant as adderral.
