I wa sitting at my desk this afternoon and it was like 3pm - I was so tired - work has been very busy ...knock on wood ...i work in insurance... i felt like i was going to fall asleep at my desk . When I am tired i take those 5 hour enerfy shots . I usually drink only half the bottle one once at a time or i feel to hyper and I talk alot and giggle - which isn't does't make the best work environment . I stopped drnking soda because I am watching my weight and this has half the calories as can of soda. What do you do to stay energized ? Can anyone stay excited with our economy the way it is ?

I have never heard of a 5 hour energy shot. What are the ingredients? I usually have a Redbull or espresso coffee if I need an afternoon energy boost.

Vitamin B6 , Vitamin B12 , Niacin , Folic Acid , Citicoline , Tyrosine , Phenylalanine, Taurine , Malic Acid , Glucuronolacone & caffeine . The tast is horrible ( the orange isn't to bad) and it is a little costly but it gives you the energy . I wouldn't recomend taking it all the time - beacuse it gives you the jitters at first - then it goes away

That sounds like it has fairly similar ingredients to Redbull. You're not supposed to have more than 2 of those a day (according to the can) I guess some people are more sensitive to caffeine than others, but I don't really get jittery when I have Redbull, unless I have like 4 in a row lol.

I never tried 5 hour energy shot before. I have not heard about it until now you post this topic. I think it's not available in my country yet. The effect is very disturbing if you get hyper and giggle a lot. Not nice if you are in a work place.

I have never heard of the 5 hour energy. There is always something new to learn from myLotters. I used to either have Monster or Red Bull, which is my favorite energy drink. Hmm, Maybe I can give this a shot sometime. I don't drink these too often in any case.Gosh, getting all hyper like that, did you do something funny? . Just kidding.
