Banned Substance OxyELITE Pro Being Promoted in Ashy Bines Forum and Closed Facebook Group

ALL VIEWERS WHO WISH TO COMMENT, PLEASE DO SO ON THE TOPIC OF THE ENTIRE ARTICLE. THOSE WHO DON'T WILL HAVE THEIR COMMENT REMOVED AND ACCOUNTS BLOCKED.

"This is an important blog because Ashy Bines sells a product which is supposed to be Clean Eating Guidelines. She is against Duromine and does not promote the use of products which have now been banned in Australia. The problem which occurs is that the Ashy Bines Clean Eating Facebook Forum remains unmonitored to the dangerous posts made by members which expose vulnerable women some who are not even 18 to drugs which could cause serious side effects and even death. (Written by CB)"

This is a quote from a concerned ex-customer, and I 100% agree.

Not only are banned substances being promoted, but the group contains members under the age of 18. The Ashy Bines Bikini Body Challenge website states on the T's&C's page that you have to be 18 or older to not only join ABBBC, but also to gain entry into the forum and Facebook group. The confession below by an ABBBC administrator has me wondering if they uphold their terms at all.

The Product

Studies and research undertaken by Therapeutic Goods Administration Australia has found the capsules contain quantities of Yohimbine in them.

In Australia, Yohimbine is listed as a prescription only substance, but is also not approved for supply in any registered medicine within Australia. It is also illegal to import the substance under Customs Legislation without the correct, or appropriate permits.

The selling of, or supply of OxyELITE Pro capsules within Australia is also illegal.

TGA advises that if you have them in your possession, do not sell, supply, or ingest these capsules, and to discard any remaining product.

OxyELITE Pro also contains the ingredient 1,3-Dymethylamylamine, or, DMAA.

"DMAA is the main active ingredient contained in OxyElite Pro, and is designed to give the user increased workout intensity, focus, and other desired effects associated with elevated adrenaline levels. However, DMAA has recently come under scrutiny by the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) due to its potential for serious side effects and life-threatening complications."

The Side Effects

The life threatening side effects associated with OxyELITE Pro include:

• Hypothermia 
• Heart Arrhythmia (Irregular Heartbeat, can lead to heart attacks) 
• Seizures 
• Stroke 
• Heart Attacks 
• Liver Damage and/or Failure 
• Kidney Damage and/or Failure 
• Psychiatric Side Effects 
• Elevated Blood Pressure 
• Sudden Cardiac Death (despite what the media says, it is not the same as a heart attack. Heart attacks occur when the heart stops due to a clot or damage to the heart, whereas cardiac arrest or death, is when the heart just stops working.)

Less severe side effects include:

• Skin Reactions 
• Irritability 
• Nervousness 
• Dizziness 
• Trembling 
• Headaches 
• Insomnia 
• Profuse Perspiration (Intense sweating) 
• Dehydration 
• Itchy Scalp and Skin
