Nutrition Guide: Synephrine

This supplement is similar to caffeine and ephedrine, it provides an energy boost, suppresses appetite and increasing metabolic rate.

It does not appear to have the same negative central nervous effects of Ma Huang (ephedra).

Through its stimulation of specific adrenergic receptors (beta-3), it appears to stimulate fat metabolism without the negative cardiovascular side effects of Ma Huang (which stimulates all betaadrenergic receptors).

In capsule form, the dosage is 4-20 mg of this supplement per day, which is a typical dose found in products providing 200-600 mg of a standardized citrus aurantium extract (3-6% of this supplement).

Possible Health Hazards:

Until more studies are done, regard it as a stimulant and therefore should not be taken with other stimulants.
