1,3-dmba Overview

1,3-DMBA, also known as 1,3-dimethylbutylamine, is a chemical present in certain supplements advertised for enhancing athletic performance and aiding in weight loss. While some products claim to derive 1,3-DMBA from pouchong tea or Coreopsis tinctoria, the levels found in these supplements far exceed natural quantities, suggesting synthetic production. Consequently, the US FDA has classified supplements containing 1,3-DMBA as adulterated, and the World Anti-Doping Agency prohibits their use. When taken orally, 1,3-DMBA is considered potentially unsafe due to its stimulant and vasoconstrictive properties, similar to those of 1,3-DMAA, a synthetic stimulant associated with severe side effects such as lactic acidosis, myocardial infarction, stroke, and even death. As a result, it is strongly recommended to avoid oral consumption of 1,3-DMBA.

Bisoprolol Overview

  • Bisoprolol is used alone or in combination with other medications to treat high blood pressure. Bisoprolol is in a class of medications called beta blockers. It works by relaxing blood vessels and slowing heart rate to improve and decrease blood pressure.

  • High blood pressure is a common condition and when not treated, can cause damage to the brain, heart, blood vessels, kidneys and other parts of the body. Damage to these organs may cause heart disease, a heart attack, heart failure, stroke, kidney failure, loss of vision, and other problems. In addition to taking medication, making lifestyle changes will also help to control your blood pressure. These changes include eating a diet that is low in fat and salt, maintaining a healthy weight, exercising at least 30 minutes most days, not smoking, and using alcohol in moderation.
