Kev - Yeah there is an inherent danger of taking too many of those pills. The problem is the "recommended" dosage is too high for anyone. Most ppl down a ton and then can't sleep for days. There was a 22 year old male from Toronto that had a heart attack because he took too many ephedrine combination pills. For some ppl that are obese it probably would give them a heart attack. I saw a guy I knew who just started working out at the gym and he told me his heart-rate was well over 200 beats a minute. I can just barely get in the High Zone at 174 beats a minute, but the last time I did I was running so hard another 30 seconds and I would have puked.

Carnation - That's so true. I see many kids where I work, today they are fatter than ever. The worse part is when they're like that at such a young age it's almost impossible for them to lose the weight.
