Does anyone have any opinions on this?

It is called "5 hour energy" and is sold in very small 2 ounce bottles.  It sure is expensive.


There is similar stuff sold here in the UK... :)

It all comes under one category "Marketing BullShit"... ;)

Don't waste your money on crap like that, it's all Marketing and no substance, in fact the exact opposite is true of these products in that you are paying through the nose for Marketing hype and some extra sugar/glucose... :(

You'd be much better buying yourself some pure fresh fruit juice (not concentrate) if you need a pick me up and maybe a wee visit to the doc for a check up might be in order... :)

Being in Oregon, during the winter months I take a double to triple dose of vitamin D because of the light levels.    The recommended amounts of vitamins are the baseline for prevention of vitamin deficiency related disease.  If you drink tons of water taking a triple multi will most likely make your pee expensive, but i doubt it will make you OD.  I am no doctor, YMMV.


You sound just like my sister & brother-in-law in Portland... :lol:

They're forever on at me to take Vitamin D and a whole load of others for the same reasons... :)

Makes me wonder how the Scottish race has survived all this time with not taking our vitamins, think 30 odd years of living in the US has brainwashed me sister... ;)

Gawd... the Drug store owners round your way must be the richest people in town... :D

I eat salty potato chips.


Just remember too much salt can be VERY bad for you and potato chips cooked in oil/fat and coated in salt is one of the least healthy ways to get your salt intake (all be it enjoyable)... ;)

Dude, I'm on Obamacare...


Don't get me started on that one... (I argue enough about that with the sister & brother-in-law on that subject)... :eek:

Let's just say until folks in the states wake up and realise that a proper National Health Service is what you folks need (like most of Europe) then like I tell the sister it's no-ones fault but her own if they "can't afford to be ill"... ;)

PS:Obama is good for you, you just don't realise it yet... :)
