If you like ephedra, then you sure will enjoy this.

Containing 150mg of ephedra extract per pill, you're going to get a sum total of 450mg of ephedra in a day.

Of course you won't take that without building up to it.

So if you're a complete beginner, forget about this fat burner and find something that is less advanced.

This is only for those who have experience with DMAA and ephedra based products.

EPH Bomb by Gold Star is a high stim, high energy fat burner that features several hard-hitting stims, including 1,3 DMAA.

With 300 mg of caffeine to get you started, this “Fat Killer” drives the energy levels - and thermogenesis - hard with synephrine, ephedra, yohimbine and 1,3 DMAA, which is structurally similar to ephedra.

On top of intense energy and focus, you can expect mood elevation with PEA.

The drawback?

A prop blend.

The ingredient list looks good but you only know how much caffeine and ephedra you’re getting - everything else is anybody’s guess.

With dieting taking a toll on mood and energy, Black Mamba makes weight loss a piece of cake.

That's not to say this is the magic pill, because nothing works until you do.

But this packs everything from old fashioned caffeine, a variety of PEA alkaloids to DMAA and ephedra and a whole lot more.

Innovative Labs instructs to not take more than 2 pills in a 24 hour period.

This is the perfect fat burner as it supports everything from mood, energy to performance in the gym.

This is worth trying at least once...

Currently, there are a few versions of Lipodrene.

Check out the differences between the 4 versions:

If you've tried the original Lipodrene and thought that was some strong stuff, wait until you get your hands on the Elite version.

Lipodrene Elite contains a newly used stimulant in fat burners, coca leaves extract.

It's traditionally used for appetite suppression and energy so as you can guess, it's used here for the purpose of weight loss.

One study found that its weight loss effects on rats to be incredibly effective and the best part is that it doesn't have any tolerance build up.

Coca leaves extract alone will have some nice effects, but this formula has synergy as it's combined with DMAA, caffeine, PEA alkaloids and a whole bunch of other stimulants.

This has 30mg more DMAA than the original lipodrene but with the same amount of caffeine.

Ephedra wasn't really a major player for weight loss in the original as it didn't contain any ephedrine, the main alkaloid for ephedra's fat burning benefits.

The added PEA alkaloid blend can replicate, or even outperform the weight loss effects of 30mg ephedrine, as research has proven.

Mood support, appetite suppression and all day energy... It can't get any better than this.

Try Lipodrene Elite if you really want to get shredded!

Synadrene is a very productive fat burner, it combines high energy and strong stimulants like DMAA with nootropics like sulbutiamine.

All of the ingredients work together to increase mental clarity and focus.

You'll no doubt experience appetite suppression, increased heart rate and a lot of buckets of sweat.

Now they don't disclose DMAA or any stimulants for that matter but they recommend no more than 3 pill per day.

Knowing Hi-Tech, that means it probably won't add up to more than 70mg of DMAA and 300mg of caffeine (usually for them).

So whether you're looking to shed away fat or remain productive while on a diet, you'll enjoy this fat burner....

This is one of the best fat burners out there...

Yes it’s true that ephedra will not have the same intensity as ephedrine but EPH 100 has hit the ball out of the park with it’s potent formula.

Containing 100mg ephedra along with 300mg caffeine, it uses multiple stimulants to ensure you a supply of focus and energy all day long.

If you’ve never taken a fat burner before then this is one you want to avoid because it’s one of the strongest we’ve seen to date.

Since the company behind this product is very low key, we highly advise that you do your research and get comfortable as you should before buying any supplement from any company.

The ingredients are under their scientific names so it can be a little confusing if you don’t know your ingredients.

We did dissect and breakdown the ingredients in it’s simple form.

Octadrene is a potent energy formula with 28 mg of Ephedra and 200 mg of caffeine - this is always a good combination for energy, focus and thermogenesis.

The energy and focus gets ramped up even higher with the addition of 1,3 DMAA and the original Ephedra replacement (back when it was banned several years ago) Synephrine.

This formula has not one but two drawbacks, two prop blends, so in some cases you don’t know what you’re getting but the complex of Ephedra and Caffeine is always effective and whatever the prop blend adds to it can only help.

If Lipodrene below is not enough for you, then the hardcore version might just be the solution.

Do not take this if you've never taken DMAA, or any strong fat burner for that matter.

This super strong fat burner is packed with the strongest (legal) stimulants and fat burners.

The acacia blend contains all your phenethylamine varieties for a mood and energy uplift.

If you want something that is more for energy and some mood, then Lipodrene Hardcore for you.

However if you want something with more PEA varieities for mood and less caffeine, then you'll enjoy Stimerex Hardcore.

DMAA, ephredra, PEA alkaloids, can this fat burner get any better?

Since it doesn't contain ephedrine, pseudoephedrine, norephedrine or methylephedrine, it's perfectly legal.

This formula has been proven to be even more powerful than ephredrine itself.

It contains both acacia rigidula and DMAA, as well as other fat burning compounds, this is may as well be better than any ephedrine-based formula.

Each pill contains 35mg of DMAA, 100mg of caffeine and 150 of acacia rigidula, so you'll really "feel" this working right from the first dosage.

This isn't just packed with stimulants and feel good PEA-based compounds.

Lipodrene is extremely well formulated as it contains everything from appetite suppressants, thyroid support and more.

Asia Black 25 has 25mg ephedra per serving, as well as 15+ compounds that all work together to get you in a thermogenic state.

It’s a simple looking formula but don’t be fooled as all the stimulants are packed in a 750mg blend.

This is a potent formula and probably one you’ll like if you’re after ephedra in combination with other compounds.

Tired of seeing DMAA with all of the ephedra based supplements?

Then you've found yourself a match.

Ripped Up contains everything except for DMAA and caffeine, though it contains theobromine, the weaker kind.

You're getting 20mg of ephedra per 2 capsules.

This is a great fat burner if you've never experienced ephedra or just want a fat burner on a budget.

Forksolin supplements usually use are very weak extracts, but with this being at 95%, the popular extract should be much more potent.

They've taken two key ingredients from their Shift fat burner and packed it into this one.

You've probably seen Forskolin and may have even tried it.

It's getting more popular as it is seen as one of the best non-stimulant fat burners out there.

This also has Hemerocallis, more commonly known as Orange Day Lily, a fairly new ingredient that performs almost as well as Forskolin but isn't as effective.

Being a non-stimulant fat burner, you'd probably be wondering if this is any good.

PEScience is known for putting out quality products with proven formula's, so yes you should try this.

Most non-stim fat burners would not work as well as PES's Forskolin 95% here.

Plus this is easily stackable so if you're already taking a pre workout, this would be the perfect product to stack it with.

Fat burners traditionally contain lots of stimulants to make you sweat, but Olympus Labs has created something much more with Assass1nate.

This innovative formula works in 3 simple steps…

First, by including generous doses of Dihydromyricetin, Carnosic and Trans-Tiliroside, it acts as a thermogenic to ramp up your core body temperature and burn fat, literally. 

These 3 ingredients have interesting benefits, especially Trans-Tiliroside as it is a glucose disposal agent, preventing fat from being stored and allows the body to use glucose for muscular energy via AMPk.

Secondly, by including Olive Leaf and Lutein, it acts as a nutrient partitioner to prevent excess carbohydrates from being stored as fat.

You can eat your carbs again!

The fact you can eat more carbs means more workout energy and more mental awareness.

Finally, with the addition of Oleoylethanolamide, it’s acts as an effective appetite suppressant, so it will stop those cravings, so you don’t over-eat.

Assass1nate promotes fat loss through various angles, including appetite suppression and carb blocking, without using a single stimulant.

This fat burner is the best to use if you’re currently going through a stim-break or want to stack it with your current pre workout.

It comes to no surprise that Stoppani's supplement has hit another top 10 list.

Shred Jym is not only simple but it is dosed so each ingredient provides maximum fat burning benefits.

It's different than most fat burners as it has the full recommended dose of Acetyl-L-Carnitine (1.5g!) and 200mg of caffeine.

At first glance you may feel the blend is a bit on the short side, but it makes up for it by using full recommended dosages of ingredients.

Compared to Drop Factor by MTS, Shred Jym uses less synephrine and red pepper extract but compensates by using a massive dose of green tea and ALCAR.

MuscleTech has taken a super popular fat burner and remade it into something better than the first.

What we thought was impossible was achievable for MuscleTech and they never fail to impress.

Now this fat burner is more of a stim-bomb than anything else but they know that and that's what their consumers want.

So they are supplying the demand.

Compared to their Hydroxyelite Elite version, this uses much more green coffee extract and more stimulants.

If you take 2 pills a day, then you're taking 580mg of caffeine, so eliminate all sources of caffeine while taking this unless you don't care about sleep.

​This fat burner is Amazon's first attempt at creating something for the mass market.

Interestingly enough, unlike their pre workout​ which isn't disclosed at all, this formula is mostly transparent (aside from the "other ingredients").

For energy, it uses 200mg caffeine, 22.5mg synephrine, and 3.21mg yohimbine.

It contains a few non-stimulant ingredients that'll also help with mental and fat burning but overall, it'll turn up a little heat for people under very tight budgets.

There are 60 servings in every bottle and for something just over 20 bucks, this is something anyone can start with.

Yohimbine may be removed as Amazon will learn people will probably get lots of complaints about it giving inexperienced users anxiety.

Mesomorph on it's own isn't going to be a great fat burner but stack with Forskolin, it'll turn you into a fat burning machine.

Mesomorph is packed with nitrates, endurance boosting ingredients.

Not only that but it also has Naringin, a fat burning compound that can be found in grapefruits.

It's also got 65mg DMAA, 300mg caffeine and theobromine to smooth out the stimulant effects.

So forget being in a bad, lethargic mood while trying to drop fat, you'll have some great mood and physical support with Mesomorph.

Forskolin on the other hand has been shown to increase testosterone levels, lipolysis and decrease blood pressure.

So as you can see, this stack will help you keep aggressive, pumped and moving like a machine while dropping fat.

Team 6 Supplements is a relatively new company and they have created a very unique product with Stimulant 1.

It is the first we’ve seen with Dynamine, a brand new, harder hitting stimulant that might make headlines for a great stimulant in 2018.

Stim-1 can be used as a pre-workout, fat burner and nootropic all rolled up into one powdered formula.

You can expect increased energy, more focus and euphoric feelings with the exclusive stim “matrix” that includes PEA for cognitive enhancement, Theacrine and Dynamine, which is unique to this company and considered to be an advanced stimulant.

Add in two forms of caffeine and you have a very stim heavy formula!

In fact the company calls this product a return to the “glory days” of stim based fat burners

This is a good looking formula but has one drawback - it relies on a prop blend for the ingredients that carry the product.

Stimulant 1, then, is a stim-loaded pre-workout that brings a potent nootropic aspect to the table along with intense energy and fat burning power.

PreSeries Lean features a solid blend that'll help increase fat burning while keeping your energized all day long.

It starts with Zinc and a couple of other much needed minerals that are generally depleted from intense exercise.

It helps with endurance and pumps as it has 6 grams of citrulline malate, and BCAA's to spare and maintain muscle mass.

Betaine anhydrous and beta alanine is included to increase power output while preventing ammonia build up (the burn).

The main ingredient under the spotlight here is Guggulsterones, which has many benefits.

One main reason it's included here is because it helps reduce fat deposits.

And then we get into the stimulants.

On top of caffeine, synephrine and hordenine, you surely won't have any anxiety and nervousness thanks to the big hefty 360mg dose of l-theanine.

This is a great fat burner for women as well since it is light and is mainly for focus and performance.

Dexamine packs 5 solid ingredients that'll have you stimulated all day long.

Since there are a few stimulants here, you'd probably expect there has to be some kind of a hard crash right?

Absolutely wrong.

Giant Sports has found a way to keep the energy going, making it lasting and smooth for a longer period of time.

You'll also feel a mood-boost thanks to the various PEA ingredients that are included in here.

Since the popular hit of OxyELITE, you'd have to wonder if their latest fat burner is any good.

Right off the top you can see it's got some fat burning ingredients, but the energy may be medicore.

But for mood and a bit of fat burning, EpiBURN does the job perfectly well.

Not only has it got a great blend of stimulants, yohimbe, caffeine and higenamine, but it also has forskolin which has been proven to decrease body fat while increasing testosterone.

EpiBurn PRO is one to try many times over...

If you want a fat burner that doesn't only boost mood, but increases focus, thermogenesis and energy, then you'll love IGNIT3.

This fat burner is jam packed with ingredients that'll suppress your appetite and help you shed away fat all day long.

Maximum dosing is at 5 pills, but you never need more than 2 to really hit the sweet spot.

This will put you in a great mood, thanks to eria jarensis, which has N-phenthyl dimethylamine.

This ingredient will shoot your mood up and have you feeling great.

You can see why we have this on our top 10 list and all over this guide.

Exo 13 is Prime Nutrition’s flagship fat burner and it’s as hardcore as it can get.

Containing all the hard hitters like DMAA, Eria Jarensis, Bitter Orange and much more, Exo 13 has everything to get you in the zone and into a fat burning machine.

With its formula complete disclosed, you’re not in for any surprises unlike most fat burners.

While it does look like it contains a low moderate dose of caffeine, it’s actually fairly high when you’re looking at everything else that’s in here.

Focus kicks in with the unique blend of nootropics like vinpocetine, huperzine and mucuna pruriens.

These 3 ingredients are not only going to help enhance brain functions but it’ll also increase motivation and mood.

While you’ll be at the top of your mental game, the benefits are only increased when they are combined with stimulants like caffeine, DMAA and Eria Jarenesis.

We’re used to seeing DMAA, caffeine and all kinds of stimulants packed into a formula but here we have much more.

Exo 13 not only has a 2nd hard-hitting PEA-based ingredient, Eria Jarensis, but it also has bitter orange, yohimbine HCl, and 3,5 diiodo-l-thyronine.

It also contains a unique patented combination “Thermo-V” which consists of Stearoyl, Vannilylamide, Zingerone and Capsaicin.

All in all, you’ll not only be sweating buckets but you’ll also feel a constant flow of energy and focus that’ll last throughout your intense workouts.

Formula 56 looks like a simple formula.

It can easily be passed for an average fat burner.

But the fact is that it's much more than what you see.

In fact, this is one of the only fat burners that has so much naringin (a compound found in grapefruits).

Naringin is a well studied polyphenol that increases energy by inhibiting PDE (phosphodiesterase) enyzmes.

PDE is a naturally occurring energy inhibitor so really, you end up with a much higher metabolic rate as you'll have more energy.

This is one of the best 'natural' fat burners since it does not rely heavily on stimulants, but rather on natural extracts such as naringin.

While a diet may have you feeling like crap, Ignite will put you in a fantastic mood with the help of its custom stimulant Eria Jarensis, as it has a wide variety of PEA variants.

You'll find that you won't even need to take more than 2 capsules at a time as that is the sweet spot for most people.

Ignit3 is not only great for energy, focus, increasing thermogenesis and suppressing appetite, it's made to have you feel at the top of your game as it contains St. John's Wort (a powerful ingredient used to treat depression!).

If you miss OxyElite then you will love this fat burner...

Hydroxyelite is the new and improved version of OxyElite.

It packs a hefty 250mg dose of Garcinia Combogia extract, DMAA and a moderate dose of caffeine (100mg) but don't let that fool you as it delivers tons of energy and makes you sweat buckets.

This here is one of the most popular fat burners today, and for good reason too.

It doesn't just have caffeine and a bunch of random stims.

It's properly formulated and well thought out.

(Though it's discontinued, it's still available to buy)

In addition to caffeine, it's also got PES's own patent extract of Yohimbe as well as Higenamine.

It's selling point isn't only to shred away fat but to keep you anabolic and help you maintain your muscle mass with HICA (metabolite of leucine).

With choline bitartrate you'll experience some great focus.

So no matter how intense your workouts are, with HICA to keep muscles spared and choline to increase mental function, you'll no doubt be able to shred away fat while keeping your performance at 110%.

While they did reformulate this for the worse, you'll still be able to find this stronger version, easily.

Cellucor has done it again.

With C4 being a popular pre workout, their fat burner is equally as good.

It combines nootropics with a bunch of thermogenesis-inducing ingredients to keep you sweating all day long.

It suggests taking 1-2 servings so at the maximum serving, you'll get more than enough stimulants.

You'll probably find 1.5 scoops to be an ideal serving.

All their flavors are fantastic, just as it is with their C4 pre workout.

Their pill version is good but it had a couple issues as if you took 2 servings then that would mean 320mg of caffeine and at that rate, you'd finish it well before 30 days.

The powdered version solves all of that as you can adjust the servings with the scoop.

There is 4g of carbs but don't panic, as it's from a polydextrose fiber.

It works well as a sweetener and it suppresses appetite quite well.

With Diablo, you will literally feel like you're torching off fat.

It's a serious fat burner and it doesn't even use any form of Yohimbe.

While it does keep everything hidden in a prop blend, Diablo is a strong fat burner that will not leave you disappointed.

If we had to guess though, there has to be around 150mg of caffeine in here.

ThermoPre by RAW-Synergies is a 100% natural thermogenic pre-workout that features high quality trademarked ingredients and full disclosure labeling.

While it’s not a heavy stim formula, ThermoPre was formulated by a Doctor of Pharmacy and it shows.

The formula features natural caffeine from 2 sources - the Coffea plant and Yerba Mate, and it’s heavy on focus with Cognizin and TeaCrine.

For workout endurance, you have the popular Beta-Alanine.

The addition of KSM-66 for stress control and mood enhancement, along with CapsiMax for thermogenesis, makes ThermoPre a well-rounded pre-workout that can get you through your workouts and help you burn fat.

Outbreak Nutrition Reclaim is a strong thermogenic fat burning powder that gives you a potent 300mg caffeine per serving.

Are you ready to sweat?

That’s what Radiate by RXS is all about!

This powdered fat burning thermogenic was designed to raise the heat so your body burns fat - according to RXS, their Lit Blend is unmatched by any other product out there.

Radiate is a stim-heavy fat burner so you should get a ton of energy & focus all day - this is a powder you can use to energize your workouts or simply take you through your day.

It will also control hunger and cravings so you stay on track.

The drawback?

It’s all in a prop blend, so, other than caffeine (200 mg), despite the fact is has some good ingredients, you don’t know what you’re getting.

As good as their Lit Blend may be, it would be better if every ingredient was fully disclosed.

Exotic flavors has become a big thing and Radiate is no slouch in this area - we’re talking great tasting candy-like flavors, like Sour Peach Rings and Cherry Slush.

Radiate is definitely worth a try, but to tury compete with the big boys, it needs a label that matches the current trend towards full disclosure.
