New "Energy" Product

[sc37 0]

Found these in my campus bookstore today. Made by Jelly Belly...seems to be like Gatorade or Powerbar Gel in candy form. Thought I'd buy some and give it a try, havent ate them yet but will soon. Novel idea, better than munching on a rubbery bar or drinking those horrid energy drinks as these do have electrolites and vitamins. Thought I'd share cause seemed to be interesting.

Good idea, but I wonder how much sugar they have. Too much sugar=a letdown, at least for me.

you want real energy take thermo genesis. i know some football and hockey player who take it and they are physco and they told me it lasts for 5 hours, havent tried them but i guess they are nuts only problem the 3 main ingredients are caffeine(of course), asprin(helmet on helemt in football) and the greatest of all ephedrine

kinda with the whole "energy chew" thing i saw Energy Chews that had a picture with Dale Earnhardt Jr. on the package at a Sheetz gas station. Probably just loaded with sugar

19g of sugar...1 oz package. It's the same as a Powerbar, only Powerbars have other carbs like grains. But I guess eating it will be like drinking Gatorade. Slurp some water, chew a jelly bean for flavoring and electrolytes.

Yeah I have a few packs of these. The orange ones actually taste pretty good.

Yeah I got the orange, they we're good. Ate those SportBeans before the game...I honestly felt good, really didn't tire as much down towards the end of the game as I usually do when we got a short bench. Didn't feel too much of a let down either...and considering I didn't have time to do a pre game meal this week...those things along with a granola bar did the trick for me this time around, think I might go and get some more.

I am going with BK on this one. If you want real energy work out and practice. That’s what I have done and my stamina and performance have improved and it doesn’t ware off and make me crash in the 3rd period.

I've tried a few free samples. They taste good but I don't think they do anything

SportBeans? Just eat lots of regular beans. You'll have explosive energy bursts throughout your whole game!

I think its a "trend" now because its the easy way to get "energy". I remember one of the mods saying everyone wants to go the easy route buying a composite thinking itll make them shoot better. Same thing applies here.
