Energy

I eat 1.5-2 times the servings of Total that they suggest... gives me 100% and a little more of 12 vitamins/minerals and a bit of protein.

Then I just complain until I get more food

 

Most of my energy comes from caffeinated soft drinks. But soft drinks in the morning= icky, so I usually drink some green tea in the morning instead.

Then, I drive (fast) with the windows down to really wake me up, and I get through the rest of the day with 4-7 cans of Vanilla Coke Not very healthy, but my body is so used to the caffeine that I get headaches without it.

 

What can I say...It's a miracle that I'm still alive with the amount of junk I eat and drink. I think my body has adjusted to it though.

 

Just eating something during the day will do fine along with water. I can easily manage without food too but I'll definently feel more sharp if I have eaten properly.

 

Soda is worthless.

I have passed the regular wake-ups stage. I now use an extra-strong variety, which I crush and dissolve in Jolt - the effect kicks in faster.

It works... for now.

Same here. One day without caffeine and I'm stuck with a charming migraine.

 

Geeze...what's next? Cocaine?

I too get headaches from lack of caffine...but not to the point where it's a migrane.

Speaking of caffine...it's gotten out of control. Besides the typical coffee, tea, soda, etc...now there's caffine in gum, mints, lollypops, plain water, a bar of soap, body wash, hair gel, and even lip balm!!!

 

In one cup of (european, Americano in Italy) coffee there's 100 mg caffeine. It takes 5-7 hours in our body to half that amount, so no question about ones need for coffee. Surely caffeine in all the stuff you describes Kitrax can't be healty

 

No.

I've seen one of my best friend destroying his life because of cocaine abuse. I'll never touch that crap.

Me and caffeine go a looooooooooooong way back. Back to the wonderful years as teenager, actually.

And the withdrawal headaches are NOT migraines... but let me describe you how bad they hurt: Let's say I take a sledgehammer and bash you on the head again and again and again.

 

I have withdraw sometimes, but nothing that bad. Most of my caffeine is from Coke and other various soft drinks. And tea. Tea is good

 

Red Bull in the morning to wake me up for the stupid 8 am lectures, mostly fruit for breakfast and lunch...and a humongous dinner...mostly Indian...

 

Well, nothing is a reliable energy booster for me, because I have to be very cautious about caffeine. Meanwhile I try the high protein, low carb approach, going for a walk, doing some stretching exercises.

Of course I am so that explains a lot.
