   Not for children–but works well, April 13, 2009

   I bought one of these and one of the mana potions for fun–was going on a trip to meet up with some friends who would appreciate such items. Here’s what we all pretty much agreed on:

   Visual: Small but very attractive packaging. Pretty much exactly what you might think a health potion would look like in real life based upon many popular games. Smaller than expected–but then it more easily explains how your character in World of Warcraft, or ‘toon, could carry 40 in one backpack.

   Taste: Also explains why your ‘toon refuses to drink another one for several minutes, even if it means dying. Dying is preferable as long as you still have the aftertaste. Think cough syrup, only without the benefit of alcohol or drugs. Very glad it came in 50ml bottles–one good sized swig and it’s gone. After a short period of time, however, one starts to think it wasn’t that bad. An appropriate support group could probably help with that mild problem.

   Effects: Works as advertised per friends who drank it (I drank the mana potion). They were able to stay up as late as they desired, were able to concentrate well, and noted no adverse effects the next day.

   Active ingredients: Per their website, contains 25 calories per serving, includes Vitamin C (100% RDA), B1 (80% RDA), B5 (80% RDA), B6 (1600% RDA), B12 (100% RDA) as well as caffeine and enzymes. Caffeine content roughly equivalent to two Red Bulls or four cups of coffee.

   Bottom line: Works well, but based upon the caffeine I would not recommend for children or anyone else you wouldn’t hand a pot of coffee to and expect them to drink it all. Really shouldn’t be listed in toys and games, but rather with food or energy drinks.

   There I was, face to face with the fabled Gorlok monster with only 10 HP left. A lesser man would have turned and run, but not me, I had a secret weapon. The Gorlok lunged at me with his 12 arms flailing and his teeth gnashing violently. I could smell the stench of death as his long talons narrowly missed my already tattered left arm while quickly I rolled to the side. As the Gorlok was recovering from his voracious strike I slipped out my Health Energy Potion and downed it in a single, hurried gulp. I could feel my strength being restored and much to my amazement my arm was fully healed! Those magnificent bastards at Energy Drinks have done it again! I sprinted towards the Gorlok, jumped high in the air and did a triple axel while coming down with all my force into the eye of the mighty beast. The Gorlok let out a deafening roar as he toppled to the ground, dead by my hand. I had finally saved the princess who was trapped in that dark castle all these years. I approached her majesty and I’ll never forget what she said to me, “Thank you Jeremy! But our princess is in another castle!” Son of a…

   Poison, January 8, 2010

   This stuff is absolutely atrocious. I’m a huge fan of energy drinks – generally Monster or 5hr Energy are my top picks, but this seemed interesting enough to try out. The stuff is awful – it doesn’t wake you up at all, has no kick, tastes horrible, and worst of all it has made me feel terrible pretty much all afternoon – very bad stomach ache. I would not drink another bottle if somebody offered to pay me the $20 I spent on a six pack of the stuff. (Also, aside from ebay feedback, this is the first online review I have written of ANYTHING – nothing has motivated me enough to sign in and complain about it before, ever, and I buy far too many things for my own good. Hopefully that speaks to how awful this stuff is.) Buyer beware – you could spend half as much money to pay a stranger to kick you in the stomach, and have the same experience.
