Any of you take those energy supplements
such as the 5 Hour Energy? Any comments
about it?

http://www.5hourenergy.com/images/buyit_prodshot.jpg

It claims to have the "no crash" effect, like
most energy drinks give you.

Anymore like these that you have tried? I
want to try some out, as I work 10-hr shifts
and hard to stay awake, lol.


Please don't include so-called energy drinks.

I have tried redline, and although its supposed to be for losing weight, i think its more like an energy drink. its about 9 bucks for 4 bottles, but you only drink 1/2 a bottle at a time. Its pretty decent and i dont crash when i come off it.

if you dont want to have the crash, you need something that has basically no sugar in it. thats all energy drinks consist of these days, and thats whats going to cause you to fall apart after an hour or two.

Sobe NO FEAR the red can. Oooh taste good and has a better "buzz" than monster. Do not drink energy drinks if you have a deskjob all youll do is wander around the office and wanna hump desk.

Vitamin water, has a carbonated drink. I drank it, and didn't crash. Doesn't give you an energy drink rush, just feel more alert. *I am very sensitive to caffeine, so I know what i'm talking about.

Redline had a mild affect on me even after taking the whole bottle. I never got the chance to try cocaine. I want a new fix. Now I just drink Red Bulls and Monsters for taste.

in some states. in my state, you can only buy so much at a time and you have to sign a sheet when you buy it. it's a strange thing to do in a gas station.
i'm sure you can get ephedrine online

5 hour energy works for me, i always keep one in my backpack. if i am in class and i felt tire and cannot concentrate, i just pop out and brings me back to track right away. but you must finish whole bottle at once or you will not feel the kick

Yes...redline is the best! They actually sell it in a gel form that is even more potent than the drink. You can get it at GNC type stores, but not GNC.

You take a spoonful a day, it will last about a month.

I will never take that shit again, after it started wearing off I couldn't do shit. I could barley tie my shoe. Honestly I didn't feel a difference until it started "wearing off". Monster & RC/Jolt cola is the most I'm going to drink.

Friend told me about that. He said this one is actually worth it. I'm probably going to give it a try one of these days.

Just an FYI, a lot of these products will react differently to different people. Don't get all crazy and start downing shit, just because people on here say it works. You can get serious conditions, from drinking too much of these things. If you are sensitive to caffeine, you might not want to take the recommended dosage. Start off small, and work your way up.

Agreed. I've taken VPX products in the past, and they always recommend taking 1/2 doses to test you tolerance, and slowly build up from there. I just prefered redline drinks, when I took them, b/c they aren't carbonated, no sugar, and for me, instant energy.

I may just have to try those. At my job I double back a lot, (means I take an 8 hour break, usually after a 12 hour shift, and come back for another 12 hour shift.) You can imagine how tired I am. I drink 2 coffee's from our lunch room, which we refer to as "mud". I feel good for a few hours, then for the rest of the day, I feel like shit. I hate that feeling. No crashing from Redline?

Sounds like a retail lifestyle...ask me how I know. I don't recall crashing w/it, but, some days, when I don't take it, I can feel it.

DO NOT DRINK THIS!

I took the whole bottle one time and felt like I was about to have a heart attack. Monster/Volt/RedLine/etc... are not good for you or your heart. When I went to buy that 5 hour energy shot at cvs they told me straight up that it was bad for your heart.

If you really want to stay awake and do it natural just eat a green apple. It works trust me. I pull 9-12 hour shifts sometimes and they always keep me awake.

As stated earlier, everyone reacts differently. I took the 5hr drink once, and it might as well have been water. Everyone has different tolerances, no matter what you try, do it in stages.

i started taking hydroxycut cuz one of my friends whos on it said it worked for him..

I havent worked out much but i am noticing I stay up way late at night, i have to force myself to sleep, so i think thats from taking it and i can see it toning my body a little bit, but i need to start working out to benefit it more. I dont have a job right now so that could be why i end up stayin up late lol.. but yah i plan to start riding my bike and get some excersize.

yes too much of energy drink can kill you. few years ago someone in my school had 4 red bulls in a day (because of final exam). after the exam, he was playing basketball and had cardiac arrest. he is 29 years old male, no heart problem and been in US army for few years. it is not urban myth, it is a real story because i knew the person.

Caffeine doesn't really effect me...and if it does it only does so much.

That's why I own my own cocaine farm. jk

If I can't stay awake naturally I probably should be sleeping. But then again this is coming from someone who had a horrible case of sleep apnea his whole life, so I probably adapted to being awake a lot.

Don't drink this garbage.. my friend tried it (right before an exam) and he got really tired, very angry and felt sick to his stomach.
