So youve bought and taken something bought from ebay, thats not a recognised brand that says this:
THE MAIN ACTIVE INGREDIENT
IS GINSENOSIDES, GINSENOSIDES ARE A CLASS OF STEROID GLYCOSIDE.
THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS LEGAL ANABOLIC PRODUCTS SUCH AS PANAXTRIOL.
And didnt think about doing a bit reading? So after a quick google search looks like the main ingrediants come from Ginseng, a plant. So youve just paid 30odd quid for a herb mix.
Here you go mate, heres a '4 month course' for £4:

To be honest mate I bought because of his feedback as he has countless people saying how good they are. But so far ive put on 5 pounds in two weeks so there must be somthing in there

That has some discussion on something similar by the looks of it, just spam mostly though
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panaxytriol
The above is is what the "THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS LEGAL ANABOLIC PRODUCTS SUCH AS PANAXTRIOL." is - It's not actually extra, all you have bought is Ginseng for £32 - Unlucky

Im just astounded you would buy and take something that you dont know what it contains, or even why it does what it does and didnt make an effort to research it... I mean this in the nicest possible way, but that is dumb as fuck and you need to sort yourself out.

To be fair they seem to work, I bought them because of his feedback and that my mate has also used them to good effect.

How though? Ginseng is in Monster and Rockstar and loads of other energy drinks, it's nothing special?

That's fair enough mate but you really need to get it in to your head that before you take something, research it as far as you can, buy off a reputable source and make sure it looks legit and you know what is in it and what effects it should have.
You think its a reputable source cos of ebay, but that feedback can be faked to a certain extent. Your mate may have taken it, that's your mate, you're not him. That advert barely says what that pill contains, and you've got lucky, could have had all sorts of harmful shite in that wasn't mentioned. Plenty of stuff out there that is legit, well documented, and is proven to work. Don't gamble with your health.

Just make sure you know what your putting in your body, could have something in it that doesn't react well to your body then your dick falls. All just so you can look big I wouldn't be pleased

Simple placebo effect. I used to think I got drunk off shandy when I was a kid.
Youve already made your mind up that it works. But by the sounds of it, cant do any harm so just keep taking them.

Why you all bashing him, loads of people go out at weekends taking pills and other such things.
Do we all know what is in the ingredients of everything we eat - if we did would we eat them?
Damn, we've all been eating hydrogenated fat for years.

Possibly not, but you can still be more careful by trying to check, and there is a damn sight more information available than the info available in that ebay ad, which is just that... It's not exactly a trustworthy source open to constant scrutiny is it..
