5 hour energy orange

This supplement drink is distributed by Living Essentials which is located in Novi, Michigan, United States.. Their slogan, “Feel it in minutes ? lasts for hours” is somewhat true, in that you don’t feel the comedown for a long time, and the crash is virtually non-existant. But there is no initial boost. Some time after drinking I noticed that I was not sleepy or draggy, even without a cup of coffee, and was not heading for the fridge for an energy drink. So I definitely felt something, but the effect was not the same as chugging a Spike.

I did like all the warnings on the bottle, like you are holding some vicious brew in your hands. In reality, this in a beginners drink. I highly doubt this drink would do much to an experienced caffeine user, or keep awake those who are really tired.

The drink has some interesting ingredients in it besides the caffeine. There is enough niacin to give a person a niacin flush (Where you turn red and flush – sometimes getting your skin itchy and prickly for a few minutes), A ton of the B vitamins, as well as Citicoline(this is a psychostimulant, a substance that enhances locomotor behavior. Other psychostimulants are cocaine and meth) , a bunch of energy drink ingredients and stomach enzymes (amylase, protease, lipase, cellulase, lactase).
In terms of energy, I did not get much of a rush from it, but still had a sustained amount for 3 or 4 hours. While I would not take this to boost my energy levels, I could see using this instead of caffeine for an easily portable way to keep up my energy level throughout the day.
Taste:8
The orange is downright tasty. Of all their flavors, this one is the easiest to drink without needing any sort of chaser to kill the chalky flavor. Orange has a great flavor goes down smoothly. Some orange flavored shots, like NOS, are very hard to take down, forcing you to hold your nose and shoot it past your taste buds in order to get it down. Not so with this – which is lpeasant enough that it could be refrigerated and sold in a bigger container if they wanted to. If you are scared of taking energy shots, this one is a great primer.

with some guy running through the mountains like he’s being chased by a wild bear. He is not jogging, but running. Now I do like hiking, even climbing in the mountains – but the only time you will EVER catch me running up a mountain is when something is running to get me. Of the times that has happened I guarantee the adrenaline in my body is a thousand times more powerful than any shot could be.

The shot package design they have has become the defacto standard for shots. The size, the amount of liquid, the cap have all become more or less what you would come to expect from an energy shot. This one is almost exactly like the other flavors they have, excepting for the orange graphic printed near the sun. Like all their products, they leave you to guess at the amounts of caffeine in the little bottle. They do give you their website and phone number for information, which is helpful.
