Customer Reviews of FRS Healthy Energy Liquid Concentrate, Low Cal Orange, 32-Ounce BottleCustomer Review: A noticeable increase in energy Summary: 4 Stars
First, a little about myself that pertains to the effectiveness of this product. I'm a 22 year old male who works full time and goes to school full time, I typically join as many park district and intramural soccer clubs as I can, run a couple miles around a lake every 2-3 days and also have a 1 year pup with a very high energy level. So I consider my life pretty active, although certainly not in a weight trainer or seriously athletic sense.
Now that you have a relative sense of my needs and can compare it to your own, onto the review of the product. First off, the taste and the smell, as that is what you'll notice first. The smell, to be frank, is quite awful. I don't wish to come off as crude, but I have to relate the smell of FRS to a slight tinge of vomit as that is the closest comparison I can make. Don't get me wrong, it's not an overwhelming aroma, but I wouldn't want to stick my nose in the bottle and take a big whiff. The taste, thankfully, is not quite as bad as the odor. It's not an enjoyable taste, but it's mild enough not to incite a gag reflex or make it difficult to consume. It doesn't quite have a medicinal taste, in fact it's hard to really put the taste into words. Basically, we're not sipping this stuff on a lazy afternoon to relax, so the smell and taste are minor points anyways.
As for the actual benefits, I can say that I have noticed a marked improvement in my daily energy level by consuming this product. I received the product from UPS at about 10am while I was at work and tried a serving shortly after that. I decided to start on some projects I had been neglecting for the past couple weeks, and next thing I knew it was 2 hours later and I had not only gotten everything done, but had gone above and beyond on a few of them. This was the first indication of how well this product would work for me. It doesn't really give you the energy in the sense of "psyching" you up and going balls-to-the-wall on things, it just gives you the energy to have resolve and carry on with work. Their claims of not causing jitters or a crash afterwards are also found.
The next day I had a soccer match and consumed a serving 30 minutes before the game. I also found FRS to have a positive effect on my endurance during the match. Most of our leagues allow for unlimited substitutions, so we take advantage of this and rotate our players every 12-15 minutes to stay fresh. Even so, I usually get pretty worn down, but on this particular day I felt an extra boost of enthusiasm to stay into the game just from the sideline. At the end of the match, after playing 45 minutes the entire game I felt the least exhausted I ever have. This is good stuff.
The last couple days I've just taken a glass in the morning and a glass before class at night, still showing a noticeable increase in energy basic enough to just get me through the day with a little extra step in my walk. Before it was not uncommon to feel weighted down, like I had lead in my veins and especially my head. FRS helps me to relieve some of that extra weight and feel lighter. I would like to continue daily servings of this product, at least once a day first thing in the morning. It would also make sense to take advantage of Amazon's subscription service for this product, as they knock 15% off making a bottle only $10. The only drawback is Amazon only allows for a maximum of 3 bottles/month using their subscription service, and at only 16 servings a bottle, based on FRS' recommended 2-3 servings a day, that will leave you short about a week's worth every month. Although, it shouldn't be hard to find a few days in the week where 1 or 0 servings should be fine to get through the day.
If FRS can come up with a formula to improve the taste and odor of this product it would certainly gain a 5 star rating from me. Although these 2 factors aren't a make or break deal for me, it only seems fair to award it 4 stars as that is in an area that can certainly be improved. Thanks for reading, and I truly hope my insight helps you make an informed decision on whether to purchase this product.

| | 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:

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.
