A DIFFERENT KIND OF ENERGY
FRS’s revolutionary blend of nutrients extends your body’s natural energy, fueling you up when you need it while supporting your health over the long haul. There’s no jittery feeling or roller-coaster ride – just prolonged energy that helps keep you focused and fully charged.
That energy comes from our secret weapon, quercetin, an antioxidant found in foods like blueberries, apples and grapes. Its incredible ability to enhance your body’s energy system is what keeps you feeling energized longer. Add a host of essential vitamins and you’re ready to tackle anything from minor workouts to a major marathon.
A single 11.5-ounce serving of FRS contains a healthy amount of quercetin, but one you’d have a hard time getting on your own; that is, unless you have a tendency to eat 40 apples in a single sitting. |

HOW TO USE FRS HEALTHY ENERGY
For best results, take 2-3 servings per day. One in the morning, one in the afternoon and whenever you need extra energy. Athletes take 30 minutes before exercise.

THE SCIENCE OF QUERCETIN
|
Endurance and VO2max Study:
Davis, Carlstedt et al. 2009
An independent, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study showed that when 12 healthy, active (but not highly trained) men and women consumed 500 mg of quercetin (QU995™) in an enriched drink mix twice daily for 7 days, they experienced a 13.2 % increase in endurance and a 3.9 % increase in VO2max (a typical measure of fitness). The study has been published online in the International Journal of Sports Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism.

Sports Performance Study:
MacRae, H. and Mefferd, K. 2006
An independent, double-blind, placebo – controlled crossover study on the effect of FRS on cycling performance in eleven elite cyclists was completed at Pepperdine University and published in the International Journal of Sports Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism. The results were dramatic: a 3.1% increase in performance–one minute and 31 seconds improvement in time to complete a 30km simulated mountainous time trial.

Immune System Study:
Neiman, David, Henson, DA, et al. 2007
A clinical study, funded in part by the United States Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) showed the antioxidant quercetin significantly reduced incidence of upper respiratory tract illness during the two week period following intensified exercise. Researchers also reported enhanced alertness and reaction time in athletes taking the quercetin supplement during high stress. Forty test subjects were subjected to extreme physical stress during a five week period. Half were given 1,000 mg of quercetin daily (the approximate amount in 3 servings of FRS) and half were given a placebo. Results showed:

Work Performance Study:
Durak, E. and Bell, M. May 2005
During a six-week study, university employees were asked to perform their daily jobs, which required physical exertion, lifting, repetitive movements and attention to detail. At the end of the study, subjects experienced improvements in various measures of work performance, as measured in a Work Productivity Assessment Index survey.

|FRS is great, but why the price hike?,
I’m a runner, work a 9:00 – 5:00 as well as go to school in the evenings and before FRS I was taking 5 Hour Energy right before a run. It worked well enough but it tastes like drinking the little soap bottles used for making bubbles. Luckily it’s a shot and it served it’s purpose. 5 Hour Energy for me made me feel almost too wired and I noticed an elevated heart rate that made me a bit nervous.
I chose FRS as an alternative because the price difference was about the same at the time, but I was wary after reading reviews that it simply didn’t work and that it came in so many different forms, which was right for me. The can seemed to be the best, I could drink it before I head out to work, or before a run and get a little push to keep me active.
For me, there wasn’t any noticeable “buzz” or need to bounce off the walls, it just keeps me alert, awake, and motivated to keep going. I think people expect that high caffeinated sugar buzz that they may get from energy drinks or coffee that just isn’t present here. Also the taste of FRS to me is like a mild tea. It doesn’t have a strong carbonated soda taste to it with a rough back end. It also has some (at least the 24 cans I’ve had thus far) particles in the bottom of the can, even if you shake it. I have not tried the other flavors or the other FRS products aside from the Low Calorie Wild Berry. The other forms of FRS may differ from my experience.
I really like FRS, and I actually look forward to drinking it when I get to work, like others do with coffee. My only problem is when I ordered my first shipment of FRS it was 28 dollars for 24 cans, and now the price has doubled and it just isn’t reasonable to pay a little over 2 dollars a can for the product.

|A Better Energy Drink,
I have tried several energy drinks and this product is at the top of my list. Many others contain lots of sugar and caffeine but FRS works in a different way with quercetin, vitamins and only 25 calories. I usually will drink 1 can at mid morning to get a renewed lift. It’s not going to be so noticeable like a caffeine buzz or sugar high but the day goes by better with it than without. I must say that Amazon seems to be the best place to buy FRS and save money.
