Yeah, right...too good to be true....
Well, it was....but it was TRUE, too! Best bargain buy I have made on ebay...granted, it is bare-bones packaging, no manual, etc but if you really need, read and keep all that crap because you think it's important and/or you'll need it in the future for some inane reason, then maybe this isn't for you but, then again, it's a hard drive with no buttons...and a cable...not exactly an IQ test

Caffiene without the crash?
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.
