Ingredients and Mechanism of Action
We know what Ephedrasil is not, but now let’s find out what it is. Ephedrasil is a mixture of green tea, l-tyrosine, taurine, glucurnolactone, metabromine, phenylalanine, valerian root, passion flower, St John’s wort, 5-HTP, citrus aurantium, white willow bark, magnolia bark, gingko biloba, and Siberian ginseng. With this ingredients list, rather than provide the stimulating effect associated with ephedra, Ephedrasil may actually provide a calming effect. However, it does use citrus aurantium and green tea, which may encourage weight loss.

Overall Impression of Ephedrasil:
The most intimidating thing about Ephedrasil is the name. The formula however generally provides an opposite effect. I will not rave about this product. However, I also will not completely recommend against it.
