FRS Healthy Energy Concentrate is the perfect solution if you consume FRS on a regular basis and prefer to drink FRS in beverage form. The concentrate is also a great addition to your favorite smoothie, seltzer water or juice blend. Each serving of FRS Energy Concentrate is powered by 250mg of quercetin -- a powerful antioxidant found in fruits and vegetables. A DIFFERENT KIND OF ENERGY FRS's revolutionary blend of nutrients extends your body's natural energy, fueling you up when you need it while supporting your health over the long haul. There's no jittery feeling or roller-coaster ride - just prolonged energy that helps keep you focused and fully charged. That energy comes from our secret weapon, quercetin, an antioxidant found in foods like blueberries, apples and grapes. Its incredible ability to enhance your body's energy system is what keeps you feeling energized longer. Add a host of essential vitamins and you're ready to tackle anything from minor workouts to a major marathon. A single 11.5-ounce serving of FRS contains a healthy amount of quercetin, but one you'd have a hard time getting on your own; that is, unless you have a tendency to eat 40 apples in a single sitting. HOW TO USE FRS HEALTHY ENERGY For best results, take 2-3 servings per day. One in the morning, one in the afternoon and whenever you need extra energy. Athletes take 30 minutes before exercise. THE SCIENCE OF QUERCETIN Endurance and VO2max Study: Davis, Carlstedt et al. 2009 An independent, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over study showed that when 12 healthy, active (but not highly trained) men and women consumed 500 mg of quercetin (QU995™) in an enriched drink mix twice daily for 7 days, they experienced a 13.2 % increase in endurance and a 3.9 % increase in VO2max (a typical measure of fitness). The study has been published online in the International Journal of Sports Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism.   Sports Performance Study: MacRae, H. and Mefferd, K. 2006 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 and published in the International Journal of Sports Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism. The results were dramatic: a 3.1% increase in performance--one minute and 31 seconds improvement in time to complete a 30km simulated mountainous time trial.   Immune System Study: Neiman, David, Henson, DA, et al. 2007 A clinical study, funded in part by the United States Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) showed the antioxidant quercetin significantly reduced incidence of upper respiratory tract illness during the two week period following intensified exercise. Researchers also reported enhanced alertness and reaction time in athletes taking the quercetin supplement during high stress. Forty test subjects were subjected to extreme physical stress during a five week period. Half were given 1,000 mg of quercetin daily (the approximate amount in 3 servings of FRS) and half were given a placebo. Results showed:   Work Performance Study: Durak, E. and Bell, M. May 2005 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, subjects experienced improvements in various measures of work performance, as measured in a Work Productivity Assessment Index survey.

Love FRS by R. Picken (NY, NY) 5 Stars
November 13, 2009
FRS is my new coffee. I wanted to give up coffee, but needed a type of caffeine replacement. This is better. I have sustained energy, and it tastes better, and I'm getting in a good 12 ounces of water too (I use more water than called for). I drink this once a day, but more often twice a day. I really love it. Now when I travel, I actually pack a small container of it to take with me. Yes, this may be an addiction. But the energy it gives me feels so clean. I dont crash or get jittery, it gives me an almost immediate boost. Its a little pricey, but for me, the added vitamins make it worth it, as it also seems to boost my immune system.....cant get THAT from coffee!

Statins users call your doctor before use by ssbcodeman (Quincy, MA USA) 1 Stars
November 01, 2009
Each morning I take Verapamil, which is a statin, to control erratic heart beats. I bought the soft chew FRS product yesterday afternoon and took two chews around 2:15. Within 30 minutes I felt and energy surge. It was amazing. There was an energy drop off around 8:00pm. I was quite pleased. This morning I took two soft chews before the Verapamil. Mistake! I immediately had the same uncomfortable feeling in my chest as when I forget to take the Verapamil until later in the day. Was it a reaction to the chews? You better believe it. Worse yet the Verapamil bottle had a warning stating that the patient must not eat grapefruit or drink grapefruit juice. So what's my beef? FRS and its marketing arm must warn statin users about the possible drug interactions before a purchase is made if they want to be seen as a reputable firm.

Pretty good stuff by Richard Fiske 4 Stars
September 17, 2009
Initially tried the version of this product sold in cans - way too expensive. Then found the concentrate here on sale. At about a dollar per serving this is a pretty good tasting product with a healthful ingredients list. I use it mixed with ample amounts of water, a little orange juice and a little ice as a breakfast beverage. Do I think this is a miracle potion that gives me loads of energy? Absolutely not. Is it a complement to a healthy diet that may provide a subtle recovery benefit to an endurance athlete (which I am, though no Lance Armstrong)? Yes, I think that's a reasonable level of expectation.

Frs, is almost too good by N. Sanchez (TX) 5 Stars
September 15, 2009
I ordered FRS from their website. I was skeptical about trying the product and thought that there was going to be no difference in my performance. I run for the cross country team at my school, the run is to test your body to the full potential, and endurance. Considering that there is some caffeine you might feel a little boost but this is not what FRS is about. After running for two weeks straight, taking FRS everyday, I was not tired at all. Maybe I wasn't running faster, or had superman energy, but after there was no fatigue. That was the crazy part. As wierd as that is the way I didn't feel tired was a little strange. This leaves me to say wierd there may be side effects. This actually works.

FRS is a marketing company by SBYogaman (Santa Barbara CA) 1 Stars

Save your money and get quercetin - the active ingredient in FRS - directly and much more cheaply via capsules from a reputable supplement provider. Despite what the company says the science is not clear that quercetin does anything anyway; it may have some benefits as an antioxidant and I do take one pill of it a day but this is more in hope than expectation. The rest is expensive sugar water, caffeine (sorry, I mean "metabolic enhancer") and marketing. I don't think I've ever seen a supplement more heavily advertised than FRS and it's obvious who pays for this outlay.
