Pay six times more for the same product.

Read the ingredient list.

The ingredient, Quercetin, that is being hyped and sold by this company as a wonder drug for athletes can easily be purchased here online at Amazon or your local health food store for a fraction of the price, packaging and extra chemicals you're ingesting.

One hundred 500MG capsules of Quercetin can be purchased for $12.00.
That is 100 servings for $12.00 instead of 15 servings for $12.00.

The extra vitamins that are packaged along with the Quercetin you're probably already taking.

Gradual ramp up of energy
By John Lee
Like many folks, I did the free trial but did not read the fine print so ended up getting a big box for big bucks. However, this is one of the few times that I am glad to have made a mistake. Since I got the delivery right before I head out for a business trip in Europe, I decided to test this out while on trip.

I must say I am a convert! This stuff is great. Unlike coffee, it does not pick you up quickly and crash you. It does take some time, but for the first time since my twenties, I felt fine after landing and working a full day with no problem sleeping afterward. It felt like my jetlags were over before it started. NowadaysI don't go anywhere without it. I still drink coffee, but lot less than before. My co-workers make fun of me whenever I mix the power in the water bottle to create a florescent yellow liquid, which they call kryptonite, but it sure helps me to concentrate while awake and puts me to sleep when I need the rest.

Gave me headaches
By D. Wortham
I wanted to try these chews because I am frequently working odd hours and it plays heck with getting to sleep sometimes. That makes me tired and dragged out the next day when I need to be alert and on the ball.

So, that is what I was looking for - sustained energy to keep me awake and alert. Physically, I am in fair shape I think and I am in my early 40s. I do some physical stuff at my job but there is a lot of sedentary stuff too.

The recommended dosage is two chews. I found that two chews gave me a pretty intense headache within a short amount of time - 30 to 45 minutes maybe.

Cutting back to one chew still gave me a headache but not as intense.

Energy levels were good, even great, and even better I didn't feel jittery. I did feel like I was 'zooming' a bit when they first kick in but it was a mild sensation and not long lived (good thing). The boost seemed to last 4 to 5 hours with two chews and maybe 3 or so with one chew.

They are very convenient to use as long as you can store them away from heat - like not in your pocket or on the dash of your vehicle because they do get melty.

They were a little too intense for me even without the headache problem. They do what they claim to do so 4 stars with the last star held back because of the headaches and upfront intensity.

I think a really active person will have a good experience with them.
