Caffiene is a stimulant that does so by inducing a stress response in the body & stress depletes B-vitamins, specifically B-12. This product combines an oil-based caffiene (guarana), minerals & vitamins that actually tastes GREAT! Their "secret" of preventing "caffiene crash" is to add TONS of B-12 to the caffiene...not such a "secret" because right on the label, the only 2 vitamins listed at over 100% US RDA are C 833% & B-12 41,667%....yes, 416 TIMES the daily amount the US Gov. feels you should have. Don't worry, both C & B-12 are water-soluable so you won't OD. Btw, Those US RDA amounts are not "recommended" per se, they are "recommended" amounts in order to prevent diseases caused by a deficiency of those very vitamins. For example, 100% US RDA for vitamin C is 166 mg, which is enough to prevent scurvy, a disease caused by vitamin C deficiency. My point is, don't be freaked out by taking over 100% of US RDA for vitamins which are WATER-SOLUBLE...this does NOT apply to oil/fat-soluble vitamins of which our bodies cannot easily process and remove excess amounts like it can with excess of water-soluble ones through urination. My subpoint is this 41,667% figure on the label that you'd never see otherwise is the "secret" of the Zipp Fizz boost. Also, Zipp Fizz although excellent and highly recommended is altogether different from the boost of 5-Hour Energy, which is also excellent and highly-recommended. However, before I digress into a discourse on the secret of 5-Hour Energy, I can offer my opinion of the differences of the boosts provided by each. 5-Hour Energy is more passive, yet sustained energy as it contains no caffiene whatsoever. Zipp Fizz boost is more pronounced as you feel the caffiene which is a moderate amount but the B-12 not only prevents any caffiene crash but it make the caffiene "buzz" more enjoyable by providing more focus and overall mood elevation...at least for me anyway. I hope this helps.Read full review

I first tasted this at CostCo, but they didn't carry some of the flavors I liked. I ordered this flavor because I love the blue raspberry. The first time I used it, I used an entire tube--it hit me like a bus. I felt terrible, my heart raced, and I drink a couple cups of coffee in the morning. Now, only used a half of tube every other day.

This is one of my favorite flavors so far. I bought these to kick the soda habit and so far they're doing the job!

I'm not a fan of the grape which tastes like kids medicine to me so this is similar but definitely better! So if you like grape you will like this and if you don't like grape I think this has enough "berry" to make it ok. I would recommend giving it a try.
