5 Hour Energy Ingredients

Whats in it?

Vitamins

Vitamin B6

Other things vitamin B6 does:

Helps the nervous system.

Production of hemoglobin, which is the compound in

red blood cells that transports oxygen and carbon dioxide.

Increases the amount of oxygen in our red blood cells.

Maintains a healthy immune system.

Helps processing carbohydrates for energy.

Some food sources which contain vitamin B6 include fortified cereals, beans, meat, poultry, fish, fruits and vegetables.

Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin)

Perhaps its most important function is the development of red blood cells. Also, the development of nerve cells. B12 also participates in production of amino acids, and processing of carbohydrates into energy.

Niacin (Vitamin B3)

Niacin is important in energy production. It plays role in converting fats, proteins, carbohydrates and starches into usable energy. Food sources of Niacin include meat and dairy products, leaf vegetables, broccoli, tomatoes, avocados, nuts and whole grains.

Folic Acid (Vitamin B9)

Folic acid, or folate, helps produce and maintain new cells in our bodies. Its also needed to make DNA and RNA, the building blocks of cells. It works with vitamin B12 and vitamin C to break down proteins and form hemoglobin. Its very important in pregnancy and preventing birth defects. Folic acid deficiency has been linked with irritability, mental fatigue, forgetfulness, confusion, depression, muscular weakness and insomnia. Food sources of folate include leaf green vegetables, fruits, dried beans and peas.

Energy Blend

Citicoline

Supports healthy cognitive function.

Maintains healthy memory and thinking ability.

Healthy brain cell function.

Sustains healthy cell membranes in the brain.

Helps brain cells communicate.

The human brain is a delicate organ of the body, constantly being attacked by various factors in our lifestyles including environmental pollution, internal toxicity, stress and a lack of proper diet and nutrients. Citicoline may help combat the ravages of these effects by stimulating the nervous system to maintain optimum sustainability to preserve our ability to think cognitively and retain our memories.

Tyrosine

Is An amino acid that transmits the nerve impulses to the brain, elevates mood, improves memory and increases mental Its found in meat, dairy, fish and grains.

Phenylalanine

An essential amino acid that elevates mood, enhances memory, alertness and learning and suppresses the appetite. Its found in dairy products, avocados, legumes, nuts, leafy vegetables, whole grains, poultry and fish.

Taurine

A naturally occurring chemical substance present in meat, fish and dairy products. It plays a role in digestion, and is used to process potassium, calcium and sodium in the body, as well as maintain the integrity of cell membranes.

Malic Acid

A naturally occurring chemical our bodies require. The body synthesizes Malic Acid during the process of converting carbohydrates to energy. It also helps remove high levels of phosphorous and aluminum from the body. The main food source are fruits, especially apples, which contain the highest concentrations.

Glucuronolactone

A natural metabolite found in the human body. It is produced by the metabolization of glucose in the liver, and has been clinically shown to reduce sleepiness and sleep-related traffic accidents. It is known to improve mental performance, reaction time, concentration and memory.

Caffeine

Provides a boost of energy and feeling of heightened alertness. Caffeine also facilitates the rapid absorption of nutrients, including B-vitamins. Original 5-Hour Energy contains caffeine comparable to a cup of leading premium coffee. Extra Strength 5-Hour Energy contains caffeine comparable to 12 ounces of leading premium coffee. Decaf 5-Hour Energy contains about as much caffeine as a half cup of decaffeinated coffee.

Safety

Phenylketonurics

“Phenylketonurics: Contains phenylalanine.” This scary sounding warning has given phenylalanine a bad rap among those with imaginations that run toward conspiracy theories. Whats a phenylketonuric? Whats a phenylalanine? Why am I in danger from it?

The answers are simple. Phenylalanine is an essential amino acid (must be acquired in food) that is used by the brain to produce norepinephrine, a chemical that transmits signals between nerve cells and the brain, keeps you awake and alert, reduces hunger pains, functions as an antidepressant and helps improve memory. It is present in nearly all foods containing protein. Phenylketonurics are people that have a genetic disorder called phenylketonuria (PKU). People with this disorder are unable to metabolize phenylalanine and must adhere to a low protein diet and abstain from foods containing phenylalanine. Babies are tested for PKU at birth so if you have it you already know it. If you never heard of PKU, dont sweat it. Your doctor figured it out for you years ago.

Its the presence of phenylalanine in the artificial sweetener aspartame (e.g. Equal, NutraSweet) that has spawned these warnings and suspicion of phenylalanine. Aspartame is used to sweeten many sugar free beverages and chewing gums. But the amounts of phenylalanine in aspartame are an incredibly low risk factor. Far larger quantities of phenylalanine would be obtained by consuming most protein rich foods. Please note: 5-Hour Energy does not contain Aspartame.

Large amounts of vitamins

5-Hour Energy contains large amounts of B Vitamins. These vitamins are water-soluble which means that which is not absorbed by the body is simply expelled with no toxic effects. In fact, people on Vitamin B therapy from a doctor receive much larger doses than the amount in 5-Hour Energy.

Niacin flush

A small percentage of people are sensitive to Niacin (Vitamin B3) and may experience a “Niacin Flush” (hot prickly feeling, skin redness) that lasts a few minutes. This is caused by Niacin increasing blood flow near the skin. This can be avoided by taking half a bottle or less at a time.

Why do Diets Fail

2009-07-21T10:30:00.001-07:00

When you take on a diet, you want to have results. Why to take the diet if you will have the same weight at the end of the period. Most women think like that and they are totally disappointed when they do not have the expected results at the end of the diet.

Losing weight is one of the general desire of women. In general, a few pounds are easy to lose. Then follows the period when you get back to unhealthy habits and back to the initial weight. Why? Here are some of the reasons that diets do not work:

1. Diets are not just an event, but a lifestyle.

If you think you can keep a diet for a month and after that you will not have problems with the weight for the rest of your life, then you wrong! Diet is a lifestyle, it should be your daily "supply" system not just a period in which you hold back the appetite of eating what you like.

Try to give away only some of the food that affects your weight and then try to remove everything. Step by step you can make it, do not try not to eat anything for a week or two.

2. Diets can cause depressions

The depression will only unbalance you and make you get back to the unhealthy eating habits. Take for example the periods in which you must go to a party or dinner with friends, where all of your friends are eating all kinds of food and you only look vaguely at your carrots, cabbage and green beans from your plate.

Depression will cancel all the effects of a diet. Don't fall prey to negative feelings, think about the results and move on! Don't think about food, try to talk with someone while you are eating, or think about something else!

3.The Yo-Yo circle

This is the biggest problem in diets. You lose weight, but then you immediately get back what you lost. Studies have shown that the body is getting used to the reduce number of calories and the excess calories stored by the body (in fat) is much greater than before. Or, to be more clearly, In a diet, your body is "starving "(not getting the usual amount of calories per day) and when you finish your diet, your body will make some reserves for days similar to diet days.

Ask a specialist to help you make a healthy diet according to your body, or you can use diet pills (fat binders, or appetite suppressants pills) to help you reduce the amount of calories absorbed by the body.

4. Self-control problem

Many women admit that they have tried to keep a diet, but simply did not have the power to go all the way. Hollywood Stars uses even hypnosis to get rid of food habits.

You can try to control yourself by keeping a diary or by permanently noting the food ingested. In addition you can try to read the motivation works or studies to make you more powerful.

Most people with adult A.D.D have learned to look at life, to the day to day ins and outs of life through I different lens. Because of this we tend to be highly creative, versatile and ingenious. Yes, you heard me correctly, ingenious. I think the famous Albert Einstein was labeled by his teachers as incorrigible, learning disabled and dim-witted, which couldn't be farther from the truth. He naturally saw and looked at life from a different perspective....
