I'm glad you stopped taking these pills. As a manufacturer of fat loss supps ourselves we decided to NOT make the typical fat burner pill, viz. NO pill that would make you feel too energetic or stop appetite.
I've been a victim of overusing ephedrine myself and while it enables you to work out hard while you're not eating enough, it can also destroy your health if you continuously undereat and are overreaching at the same time. It didn't happen overnight but over a period of almost 1 year I slowly destroyed my own health.. it may not have been just the EC combo but also the continuous very low carb diet whcih makes you burn through more B-vitamins which I happen to absorb very poorly. Turned out I had a major B12-deficiency that wrecks havoc on your health.

For short term results the typical appetite suppressant can be 'fantastic' but long-term it spells disaster. And the nasty part is that they make you feel great, hence why this stuff is so attractive.
