So whenever I'm at work and I plan on going to the barn afterwards I'm SO tired. Like... last week I swear I fell asleep at my desk for 30 seconds. Ok ok… maybe 2 mins. Anyway, I needed to get something to try to help me and my inability to focus past the coma of lunch. Enter: 5 Hour Energy. I know a lot of people have taken this, and its been on the market for a long time and its still there, so I was guessing it did something. It better do something for about 4 bucks a bottle!!!
I bought the lemon lime flavor, not knowing there were different ones, I assumed it was like Redbull… one bad sugary flavor for all. So yea… I begin to down what I can only describe as battery acid and get through ½ the bottle before I decide that I need to stop or risk booting all over the files on my desk. I gingery cap the little bottle of radioactive mouth wash and put it in my file cabinet for another machinist day.
Its been about 2 hours now since I took it and I can say that I feel a difference. I’m not jittery like on caffeine, but I’m defiantly typing faster and am more alert, not sleepy. I got the “niacin flush” that is talked about where it flushes your face and your skin and could really feel that for the first 30 mins or so…. But now it’s gone. Actually… I’m sitting here in a short sleeved top like a normal human being and not all wrapped up in my blanket like I usually am, so that’s also a plus.
So all in all… for me I would say the little bottle that tastes VILE works. Maybe next time I’ll try one of the other flavors and see if I can stomach them any better.
