Pie'oh'Pah Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) A widely available chemical. Just another reminder that you should always know what is going into your body. This is showing up in pre-workout drinks and other blends. "Eight weeks after DMBA injection, 16 rats presented at least 1 breast tumor (80%). After 13 weeks, all of them (100%) developed breast carcinomas" a really nasty chemical http://www.nsf.org/newsroom/unapproved-synthetic-stimulant-dmba-found-in-multiple-dietary-supplements/ Researchers from global public health organization NSF International, Harvard Medical School and the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment in the Netherlands (RIVM) have found an unapproved synthetic stimulant - 1,3-Dimethylbutylamine or DMBA – in 12 over-the-counter dietary supplements. The findings were published in the peer-reviewed journal Drug Testing and Analysis. This is an important finding, as DMBA is chemically similar to other harmful stimulants such as DMAA, which was banned by regulatory agencies in the US, UK, The Netherlands, Brazil and elsewhere because of its links to negative health events such as strokes, heart failure and sudden death. There are no known safety studies on DMBA and its health effects are entirely unknown. “While regulatory authorities work to remove harmful stimulants such as ephedrine and DMAA from supplements, new synthetic stimulants such as DMBA continue to crop up to take their place,” said NSF International Senior Research Scientist John Travis. “Without proper studies, the health impact of this new stimulant is entirely unknown. We urge manufacturers, distributors, retailers and regulators to work together to remove this unapproved stimulant from the marketplace to help protect consumers from potentially harmful health effects.” http://tpx.sagepub.com/content/33/6/726.full In female FVB mice given 6 doses of 1 mg of DMBA by weekly gavage beginning at 5 weeks of age, all of the mice developed tumors by 34 weeks of age http://cancerres.aacrjournals.org/content/31/12/1951.full.pdf Eight weeks after DMBA injection, 16 rats presented at least 1 breast tumor (80%).

gtarman Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) I think anyone buying shady pre-workout powders is taking a big risk anyway. I always say stick to known shit, either go au naturel or maybe take caffeine tablets if you must and then only if you know you can handle them. But again I guess this comes back to the basic flaws of prohibitionist drug policy - anything that works that people take gets banned and something else (usually worse/more dangerous) springs up to replace it.
