Why You Need FRS
| One of the top theories about why the body ages— and why you feel tired, worn-out or foggy headed — involves tiny molecules known as free radicals, which are created as a natural result of any metabolic activity. For example, after you jog a mile, free radicals circulate in the body. Even non-exercise activities, such as working at a computer, generate free radicals. Free radicals are even created by each breath you take.
A small amount of free radicals are not a problem. Your body produces its own batch of free radical eliminators called “antioxidants” to seek out and destroy free radicals. You also get small amounts of antioxidants from the foods you eat, such as certain fresh fruits and vegetables.
But problems occur when free radicals become too numerous. When your body fails to produce enough antioxidants quickly enough — or additional free radicals are created by high stress, poor diet, lack of sleep or environmental toxins — healthy cells and tissues get damaged. Free radicals attack your heart cells, liver cells, even brain cells. They also attack and destroy mitochondria — the cells that produce energy in the body. Free radical damage is now believed to be a contributing factor behind being overweight and obese, fatigue, poor thinking, muscle injury and serious ailments such as arthritis, heart disease, stroke and cancer!
So if you’re suffering from low energy, midday sluggishness, muddled thinking, stress-related anxiety — or you simply want to boost your weight loss efforts — the first thing you should do is give your body more antioxidants by regularly taking FRS to help wipe out the bad free radicals.
| | Why Lance Armstrong uses FRS |  | 'I need a healthy source of energy. As an athlete and a cancer survivor, I have to think about what I put into my body. After studying the science behind FRS, I feel confident in making it part of my daily routine. FRS fits with me wanting to live to be 90 and beyond, when I’ll still be running marathons, riding my bike, staying fit and having fun.” —Lance Armstrong

Why FRS Works
|
Recently, Harvard scientists created FRS, a patented formula that contains some of the most powerful antioxidant nutrients in the world. When consumed on a daily basis, these nutrients work synergistically to give your body the extra help it needs to destroy free radicals and reclaim the youthful energy and mental focus you deserve.
FRS works so well because it not only contains 100% of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) of time-honored antioxidants such as vitamins A, C and E — along with other key energy-producing and energy-sustaining compounds like vitamins B6, B12 and niacin. But FRS also gives you two key dimensions of antioxidant support that take your vitality to new heights:
|  | Quercetin
Quercetin is one of the most powerful antioxidants and is naturally found in the skins of blueberries, red onions, apples and other fruits and vegetables. Independent studies have linked quercetin with improved physical performance, mood enhancement as well as anti-inflammatory and anti-allergen effects. Unfortunately, you would need to eat dozens of fruits and vegetables every day to get the amount of quercitin shown to be effective in these studies. Taking FRS every day supplies all the quercetin you need and is much easier than eating dozens of fruits and vegetables. The quercetin used in FRS is pharmaceutical grade 99.5% pure quercetin - called QU 995. | |  | Green Tea Catechins (EGCG)
Catechins, specific nutrients found in green tea, have strong antioxidant properties. Researchers have found that EGCG — the primary catechin in green tea — is 100 times more potent than vitamin C against free radical damage. In addition, many scientists now believe that the much-publicized weight-loss effect that occurs in people who drink green tea may be due to the presence of EGCG rather than the presence of caffeine. It is believed that EGCG — by protecting the body's mitochondria from free radicals — allows the body to produce more energy. That's why FRS includes a potent amount of concentrated EGCG in every serving. | |
Clinical Studies and FRS | 
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, scientists measured the work performance and found that when the workers took FRS they experienced: | 
Recently, researchers gathered a group of volunteers aged 49 to 69 who had been diagnosed with advanced-stage cancer for at least 1.6 years. Scientists found that when patients consumed FRS on a daily basis, they reported: |  |  |
 | A United States Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) funded study shows antioxidant Quercetin reduces susceptibility to viral illness and helps brain function under stress. Forty test subjects were subjected to extreme physical stress during a five week period. Half were given 1000 milligrams of Quercetin daily (equal to 3 servings of FRS) and half were given a placebo. The results were dramatic:

 | | 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 in June 2004 and is being published in the International Journal of Sports Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism. The results were dramatic — one minute and 31 seconds improvement in a 30 km simulated mountainous time trial. |
 | The ORAC test measures the total antioxidant power of foods. The higher the ORAC score, the better a food or beverage destroys free radicals. Recently, researchers conducted an ORAC test of FRS and compared its score to other popular antioxidant or energy drinks. Here's what they found:

Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Alternative to Redbull
I was looking for a powdered alternative to Red Bull, and this works for me. The taste is not the same, but the energy boost works for me, the product is local, and I'm not paying for someone to ship water in a cute aluminum can across the Atlantic
Rating: - much needed endurance
Used for 3 weeks so far and have been pleased with the results. Golf 3 days a week in FL heat and just can't last usually; now I can hang in there with one frozen 16 oz mixed bottle and one chilled in the frig. I can't believe my 2 hour 'melt-down' is gone. Apple, banana and FRS lasts for the 4 hours. Highly recommend.
Rating:  - tastes like sh**
Recieved the product and tried it in regular bottled water. It is absolutely the most god awful tasting thing there is. Have no idea what kind of lemon lime flavor this is supposed to be. Could not even get half of it down, so I have no idea how well it works. Would not advise the powder mix version. It tastes like sh**.
Rating: - much needed energy
I play a lot of tennis and this has really helped me finish the matches strong. I would recommend this product for active people.
Rating:  - Way Too Much Acid in this Drink
I tried to drink this a few different ways, even with half the mix. And it was MUCH too acidic. Yes, I do have acid reflux problems. But I have no problems drinking things like Vitamin Water and Gatorade. I couldn't handle this drink.
On the flip side, I did feel pretty good after drinking this. I think the energy part works.
I would strongly recommend you stay away from the powdered version if you don't have an iron stomach.
I haven't tried the concentrate or the regular drink that comes in cans.
UPDATE: Tried out the Low-Cal Wild Berry that comes in the can and it wasn't too acidic. Don't know what the deal is with the powder.
