09 Mar 08 Akavar is a Scam, Metabadrine with Real Ephedra has a Decade Long Track Record
Metabadrine has a following for more than a decade. It should not be confused with the scam weight loss products like Akvar. We are almost sold out of this ephedra product. There can be no more made, so we suggest you stock up now.
We have wondered about the product Akavar :
Meanwhile, Akavar’s ad claims: “We couldn’t say it in print if it wasn’t true.”
Well, actually, they pretty much can, as there’s no federal agency that reviews advertisements before they appear.
“They’re about as bold as you can be,” says lawyer Scott Shepherd of the outrageously brazen ads.
His firm, Shepherd, Finkelman, Miller & Shah, LLC, has filed a class-action lawsuit against the company, set to go to trial in 2010. “We filed our case in November 2007 based on consumer fraud claims,” said Shepherd, whose firm has successfully settled a $16 million suit against Rexall Sundown Inc., for weight-loss product Cellasene and a $12 million suit against the now-defunct Dr. Phil-endorsed Shape Up! diet supplements.
Meanwhile, the Federal Trade Commission was unable to confirm whether any investigation is pending.

05 Mar 08 Bond’s Free Testosterone at High End of Range, What about Total Testosterone?
Metabadrine with Real Ephedra at GorillaVitamins.com. Its almost sold out. No more will be made.
It should be at the high end – he’s a pro athlete for goodness sakes.
Dated Jan. 19, 2001, the sample found levels of free testosterone (in Barry Bonds) that could not be accurately measured as they were higher than 5.00. A normal free testosterone level for a male aged between 20 and 49 ranges between 0.95 and 4.30, the record stated.
During the grand jury hearing, prosecutors quoted to Bonds a section of test summarizing the findings.
“The percentage of total testosterone in unbound state, per cent free testosterone, cannot be calculated since the free testosterone level is greater than the highest detectable concentration,” it read.

05 Mar 08 Metabadrine with Ephedra to Raise Prices
Metabadrine is the only brand of ephedra product we are aware of the has real, old skool, ephedra with the alkaloids.
Ephedra and thermogenesis
Diet-induced thermogenesis is the direct conversion of ingested food into heat. A lean individual may produce a 40% increase in heat production, whereas an obese individual may only produce a 10% increase in heat production. In these people, the food energy is stored as fat instead of converted to heat. The degree of heat production is controlled by the sympathetic nervous system. Ephedrinecan activate the sympathetic nervous system, thereby increasing the metabolic rate and thermogenesis. The result is weight loss.
Ephedra Plus Caffeine
Substances such as methylxanthines (coffee, tea, cola nut, guarana) and salicylates (aspirin, mint, oak) can enhance the thermogenic effects of ephedrine.
In one animal study, ephedrine used alone produced a 14% loss in body weight and a 42% loss in body fat. When ephedrine was combined with theophylline or coffee, a
loss of 25% body weight and 75% body fat was observed. Caffeine or theophylline used alone produced no significant loss of body weight.
