anyone here taking up nutrients or tablets used by body builders? does it really help if you just want to lose weight and not have a bulky body?

As long as I've been monitoring low carb forums (others besides this one as well) the opinion has been very strongly toward the negative, espcially the ones containing epinephrine. I've only seen one or two folks in the past year who had any success with them. There's even a professonal body builder on another forum who strongly argues against them. I know *I* can't take them--they turn me into a jittery mess, and don't work to boot!
