Does Asia Black Work?
Note: This is a review. To order visit the Asia Black 25 website.
As far as weight loss goes, Asia Black 25 says all the right things and makes all the right promises. Made by Cloma Pharma, it promises to:
- Increase energy so you’re not dragging yourself through your workouts and your day.
- Decrease your appetite so you’re not sabotaging your efforts with your midday cravings.
- Keep you in a thermogenic state so you’re burning fat constantly.
And it promises to do these things even after you’ve been dieting and losing weight long enough to hit that dreaded plateau where it seems like your body just won’t lose any more fat. Modeled after the old ECA stack of the 90s that worked so well until the FDA banned Ephedrine, Asia Black 25 promises to be the only weight loss supplement you’ll ever need.
Asia Black 25 Ingredients
The base of the Asia Black 25 formula is “the ECA stack”. This isn’t the original ECA stack. Since Ephedrine was banned, it can’t be. It’s a copycat ECA stack made up a total of 302 mg containing:
- Ephedra Nevadensis Powder which is unfortunately not the kind of ephedra that contains the active ingredient Ephedrine. The name is similar, but the effect just isn’t there.
- Caffeine which is clearly a stimulant that provides energy, focus, and appetite suppression.
- White Willow Bark which is similar in chemical structure to aspirin which can be used as a blood thinner.
Basically, it appears to be an ECA stack, but these ingredients just aren’t the same as what was used in the very effective original ECA stacks. There are however a whole bunch of additional active ingredients in the formula:
- B Vitamins for the metabolism of carbs, fat, and protein as well as energy production.
- Chromium (1) which can help increase sensitivity to insulin.
- Bladderwrack (2) which may improves the body’s regulation of thyroid hormone.
- L-Carnitine (3) which helps transport fat to be used for energy.
- Guarana which is a natural source of caffeine for increased energy, thermogenics, and appetite suppression.
- L-Tyrosine which also improves thyroid function.
- Evodia and Ginger Extracts which both improve digestion.
- And several additional stimulants including Green Tea, Citrus Aurantium, Yohimbe Extract, African Kola Nut Extract, and Yerba Mate Powder.
How To Use Asia Black 25?
The recommended daily dose is 1-2 Asia Black 25 capsule after meals. You should start out with one after breakfast, then slowly increase your dose as your tolerance is built. It’s not advised to take more than 6 capsules a day, and you should avoid taking any within 6 hours of wanting to go to sleep.
Asia Black 25 Side Effects
Asia Black 25 contains a lot of stimulants. Some people are more sensitive to caffeine than others, and that would dictate who might become jittery right away or find themselves crashing a few hours after taking Asia Black 25. There’s also the Yohimbe to consider. Some people experience agitation, hypertension, or rapid heartbeat when taking it. It can also lead to a dangerous drop in blood pressure for some users. Additionally, the combination of Citrus Aurantium and White Willow Bark is thought to be potentially dangerous to some. As such, it’s not recommended for anyone with high blood pressure, thyroid disorders, or an illness or condition. If you take prescription medications, you should check with your doctor before taking Asia Black 25.
Asia Black 25 Pros
- We found some positive Asia Black 25 before and after testimonials from users who’ve had weight loss success using it. Typically, the good reviews go something like this one: “This product works fast, helps burn fat, and boosts energy.”
- A bottle could last a long time depending on how you take it.
Asia Black 25 Cons
- It claims to be an ECA stack, but the Ephedra in Asia Black 25 is basically useless.
- It’s got many potentially hazardous stimulants.
- The dosing instructions basically build on the knowledge that you will develop a tolerance and it will stop working.
Where to Buy Asia Black 25
Asia Black 25 is only available online through a few supplement retailers. You will not find Asia Black at GNC, Wallgreens, Vitamin Shoppe or Walmart. Online retailers like bodybuilding.com does not carry it either. The 100-count bottle sells generally sells for between $26.99 and $29.99. If you only take 1 Asia Black 25 pill per day, it can last you more than 3 months. But chances are you’ll use more than that, and it will last about a month.
Our Asia Black 25 Conclusion
I don’t see people falling all over themselves to get this stuff, despite its claims of being as good as the ECA stacks you used back in the day. That’s because it’s more hype than anything else. Hype and a whole lot of stimulants, some potentially dangerous. Despite its hype, the benefits of Asia Black 25 don’t outweigh the potential side effects, so I wouldn’t recommend you use it.
Asia Black seems to play on the throwback ECA stack, but fall short on the “E”. TestoFuel uses current science and is used by MMA fighters and wrestlers to cut weight and suppress the appetite. To check out our review of TestoFuel and the ingredients, Click Here
