WHAT IS L-PPA?

L-PPA has been shown to be significantly more thermogenic than the very popular ephedrine. In terms of it's properties, L-PPA comes very close to amphetamine in it's action - yet being far safer than ephedrine, which much fewer side effects like tremors or nausea. L-PPA is a very powerful lipolytic, particularly acting on brown adipose tissues. Also acting as a very strong appetite suppressant, it is of great importance to those on a calorie restricted diet.

L PPA is a chemical cousin of ephedrine and it is probably not wise to combine the two chemicals together. It has also been shown to be upto 20% less effective when combined with caffeine rather than more effective as when ephedrine is combined with caffeine. However scientists have discovered that PPA actually causes caffeine levels to rise four times what they normally are. So if someone was to drink two cups of coffee and take an effective dose of PPA that person would have the equivalent of eight cups of coffee in their blood. So combining the two can make a person feel very wired and on edge. Taken with caffeine PPA also raises blood pressure, where as when taken alone at the correct dose of 25 mg two or three times a day there is no rise in blood pressure. Increasing the dose further than this however can raise blood pressure.

WHY USE L-PPA?

Due to the fact ephedrine is band and illegal in England you often see this substance as a direct replacement or alongside ephedra in one of it's forms.
