Clever marketing.

Amazing…another energy supp that has Caffeine in it!!!

seen it… its a concentrated caffeine pill in liquid form

I have a bottle of it, but I’m actually afraid to try it. I know for a fact that it will work, because it is similar in priniciple to many of the energy drinks out there that actually work (there are a couple that do: Crunk and NOS, for example).

Basically the stuff just gives you a ridiculous amount of B vitamins. The caffeine helps a little, but it’s the B vitamins that make the difference. What scares me about 5 hour energy is the amount of B vitamin overload it will give, (it is something like 2000% of the RDA, compared to about 200% for NOS). Most of that is going to be handled by your kidneys, and my piss smells foul enough after a can of NOS.

I’ve tried many different energy drinks, and the ones that work the best seem to be the ones with the most B vitamins. The caffeine amount is not much different than what you get in a cup of coffee or a can of Mountain Dew.

Extra Jossssssssssss?

lol

I like this:

Why do I feel so hot?
You are experiencing a Niacin Flush. It is the result of the Niacin in 5-Hour Energy increasing blood flow near the skin. It will go away after a few minutes. A small percentage of people who use 5-Hour Energy experience this. To avoid a Niacin Flush try drinking just half a bottle and save the rest for later.

Increased blood flow = bonner? :uhh:

So it’s a supplement and not regulated by the FDA :slight_smile:

LOL @ 8333%

The average person that is prescribed Niacin takes a dose of 500mg daily… I believe… so that is a low dose

I’ve tried it. It tastes like shit. And it doesn’t really work. I seriously needed a chaser after drinking it.

what about cocaine?

I never understood people’s obsession with energy drinks. Just eat properly and take some vitamins. :bloated:

me neither, but I still drink them all the time.

i never used that chaser thing for hangovers, i wonder if it works

I will be selling these at the pizzeria.
D

siqqq
im soo going to your pizzeria then let me know when you do!!

Really? cool yo.What Should I charge for a drink like this?Remember the average food cost at a pizza shop should be 30-35%.If I’m paying close to $2 each for these,Can I really sell them for $4+ that I should at a minimum?
D

in.

just do a 100 can order and find out and just charge double what you by them for. so say its 1.50 a can if you do the 100 can order then sell them in the pizzeria for 3 bucks make a 50% profit on it. then just double your orders if it sells out fast. it would bring in a lot of little wangsters to your place. that may or maynot spend money on pizza but only on crunk.

No need to be afraid, I’ve taken these before working out. Its no more powerful than 2 cups of coffee, if you were to slam those two on an empty stomach. I, however, make no claims as to its health effects in comparison to 2 cups of coffee.

pretty much. i swear i’m gonna be the only dude left with two functioning kidneys at middle age from my generation

if you are paying $ 2 each, and selling for $ 4, isn’t that 100% profit… not 30-35%? i know restaurants make a lot of their profit off drinks and the such, but dayummmm. lol

really u should be paying like 1.25 each (if possible) and selling for $ 2, those will sell out.

on topic: thats a crazy ass supplement. i don’t think it’s healthy based on reading those percentages!

In terms of actual cocaine, it’s pretty funny that caffeine was on the same list as coke sometime in the early 1900’s or late 1800’s. 1 drug on the list had to be made illegal and they went with cocaine.

Funny that caffeine could be illegal right now and cocaine legal. Then you’d have all the whiners like choda and jack saying “omg, caffeine is for losers. Only losers do drugs like caffeine. God, just wake up and have energy naturally, losers.”
