I’m going to be reviewing a newer healthy energy supplement that is supposed to healthfully sustain your energy levels all day long. It’s called FRS Healthy Energy, and it is a combination of several different types of supplementation that can be used by themselves or together as a sort of energy boost.
The main idea behind the FRS energy supplements is that it provides a lot of antioxidants in the formula, and they say that since your body is not concentrating on healthy cell renewal and the destruction of free radicals since their patented antioxidant delivery system is, you will have more energy to spare.
I thought that sounded great, since I’m a little sensitive to mega doses of caffeine, and it also tends to make my face break out. However, upon a fruther examination of the ingredients, I did see that caffeine is listed in an ingredient in their drinks, although it is listed fairly far down, which means there’s not too much of it. I was a little disappointed in this, as I thought I would be buying a caffeine free energy sustaining supplement, but as long as it does not have mega amounts of caffeine, I’ll be all right I suppose.
I went for their free trial, where you get two free weeks of the stuff. You actually get all of the forms in smaller amounts, so you get the powder, the concentrated liquid, the chews and a soda can-like thing of the drink supplement as well. I’m hoping this can be my replacement for what I currently use at work to replenish my energy, which is Five Hour Energy, and costs about $3 a tiny bottle.
At one bottle a day that can add up, but so can this FRS stuff. I’m willing to try anything besides coffee to stave off that afternoon lull I inevitably get. I will review the FRS energy supplement as soon as I get it in the mail and start using it for you.

I was wondering what you thought about FRS after trying it for 2 weeks? Is it worth the money? Does it live up to its hype?
Thanks!
Note from fitness news : I sent this response to this question to this reader about the FRS energy drink :
Hello. You had written a comment on my blog DailyDietBlog.com a little while ago. Sorry I’m just now getting back to you, but I was out for a while and just now got it. You wanted to know what I thought of the FRS energy/antioxidant drink after I had tried it for a while, and here’s what I think. I like it, and I think it works well, however, I did notice that my heart was going pretty fast after I drank it a couple of times, so I had to scaled back on their recommended dosage. I liked the liquid concentrate the best, although I tried the chews and the powder and the can, all of which I just didn’t care for as much as the liquid concentrate. I am very sensitive to caffeine, and I think that’s why I reacted with a rapid heart rate the way I did after drinking too much, but some people just find that to be normal amounts of caffeine. My boyfriend likes it, and he is a regular coffee drinker, however he did find he had a rapid heartbeat after drinking it once as well. As an energy booster, I like it, but I like Five Hour Energy even better. Just wish the cost would come down on both the them!
Hope this helps.
