What should I use to keep me awake? 4 Months, 1 Week ago

Karma: 0

First of all, Hello! I've been reading this forum for a while, I'm currently in week 7 of my P90X journey and am loving it.

So, on to my question. I work graves and used to drink at least a 32 oz Mountain Dew a night to help keep me awake. Since starting the program, I've completely cut soda out. At first I didn't have a problem, but for the past few weeks I've really been struggling to stay alert at work. What can I do for an energy booster that isn't poison?

A lot of supplements have caffeine in them. I use Irwin Naturals - System Six - Ripped Man. Though the product contains caffeine, it does not make me all jittery and jumpy. Bat it does provide some wake up.. I like it because it also provides a number of Aminos and vitamins that I want anyway. I got it originally at Smoothie King, and then bout it on-line at vitadigest.com

Try green tea with ginseng. If buying a snapple/arizona type product go for the diet version unless weight isn't an issue for you. Good luck!

I'm having the same issue of staying awake after lunch which is when everybody wants to schedule meetings I use green tea and it seems to work

Given what you do, I don't think black coffee would be too bad and you should drink maybe more water as it is a diarhetic.

Caffeine Pills Coffee with Splenda Sugar Free / Low Carb energy drinks (the blue monsters) These are all forms that I use.
