FRS Healthy Energy Drink - What You Need to Know

FRS Healthy Energy Drink Introduction
FRS Healthy Energy is a fairly new, healthy energy drink. While the energy drink market is huge, it is full of unhealthy energy drinks that contain high fructose corn syrup and lots of artificial stimulants. There are very few healthy options, so FRS is a welcome addition.
FRS stands for "free radical scavenger" which is another name for antioxidants - the healthy substances that neutralize free radicals in our bodies before they can do their damage. FRS is packed with these healthy flavonoid antioxidants.
Since FRS packs a punch with all the antioxidants, it allows your body to use its natural energy, since it's not bogged down with free radicals. And FRS does this without a lot of extra crap ingredients!
Everyone from top professional athletes to busy moms uses FRS. As with most energy drinks, supplements, etc., it probably won't work for everyone, but it does happen to work for me, so I'm happy with it.
Ingredients That Make FRS Healthy
As I mentioned, FRS contains a large amount of antioxidants, specifically Quercetin and Catechins. To put it in perspective, one serving of FRS is equivalent to 3 servings of blueberries, 6 servings of red onions, or 8 servings of raspberries.
Plus, FRS provides 100% (or greater) Daily Value of many vitamins and minerals, such as Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Niacin, Vitamin B6, and Vitamin B12.
The actual ingredients vary by the exact product, whether you're using an FRS energy chew or the powdered drink mix or something else, but some you might see some of these:
White grape juice concentrate, Orange juice concentrate, Quercetin, Green Tea Extract, Riboflavin, etc.
FRS Product Selection
FRS has products for everyone. They have the typical cans, a powdered mix, a liquid concentrate, and even "health chews."
FRS Cans
FRS in cans is the most convenient way to have FRS is you are lazy, and it's also the best tasting option because it is mixed right at the factory. However, it's also the most expensive.
FRS in cans comes in all natural orange, all natural lemon lime, low cal orange, low cal lemon lime, low cal peach mango, and low cal wild berry.
FRS Powder
If you want to store FRS easily, you can get it in boxes of powder. The powder packets are like little tubes, so you don't have to scoop any out or measure anything. Just dump the packet in a cup, add water, and stir.
The FRS powder doesn't mix perfectly, but it mixes well enough.
FRS Liquid concentrate
Another way to save space but avoid the powdery drink issue is to use liquid concentrate. Since it is already liquid, it's extremely easy to mix, and it tastes great.
But you will have to store an opened container in your refrigerator to keep it fresh.
FRS Chews
Perfect for athletes or anyone on the go, these are like little pieces of chewy candy, but they contain the FRS healthy energy formula. They are individually wrapped so you can take them anywhere.
There you go, a look at all the FRS products.

Where has it been proved that taking anti-oxidants yields extra energy? What is the exact biological mechanism for this allegation? Where has it been shown that taking antioxidants, outside their normally stored bounds (within the context of micro-nutrients- note that apples have, along with quercetin, numerous adjunct micro-nutrients that may need to be there while the body utilizes this powerful anti-oxidant). Where are the scientific studies that cooroborate some of the outrageous claims of this company? Why does FRS dabble in tricky marketing techniques where they charge credit cards without permission and make it difficult to get your money back? How come little is said about the above?
Harvey Miller, you're 100% correct. What I love are reviewers on other sites "feeling" an energy boost and attributing it the antioxidants, not the caffeine. Since when do antioxidants give you energy? Funny how FRS tries not to attribute any energy boost to caffeine. Their claims are ridiculous and unsupported by science. Their website repulsed me because it was so cheesy and decieving.
It's annoying when people with little to no understanding of nutrition and supplements start reviewing health products. I see no true analysis of FRS, only repetition of FRS' own message about what it has to offer. Nothing useful has been added by this article.
But it has been shown that antioxidants reduce problems in your mitochondria, and let's them operate more efficiently. Your mitochondria, in turn, help create more energy.
From what I have seen, no one is claiming that antioxidants produce energy. Antioxidants help your body manage free radicals, which eases the workload on your body. Therefore, you should have more energy, since there is less stress on your body. That's the theory that I go by.
How much did FRS pay you to put this up Coach Levi?
@Ryan
Probably the same amount that Red Bull paid you to post your comment.
FRS, if anything, lacks company ethics they have a pop advertisement from their website that features and attractive woman wearing headsets with a caption that says "Lisa, FRS customer service rep" when in fact "Lisa" is an istock photo purchased from the istock website and certainly doesn't work for FRS. They also use a picture of another woman on their mapmyride advertisement who they say is Maddie Karlsson, an endurance runner and so far I haven't been able to find any information on Maddie Karlsson, probally another stock photo. I can't comment on the quality of their products but I will not do business with a company who has a totoal lack of ethics.
Company ethics aside, this stuff tastes horrible.
maddie karlsson is hot in that photo. I don't care about ethics, I want more maddie.
Ditto what runner said! :) Seriously, I tried FRS when they first came out...they were giving bottles of the stuff away for the longest time, and I really enjoyed it. However, I could not tell if it was scavenging free radicals, and resulting in more energy. I say they should release the studies to support their claims...
I'm a professional trainer at a famous global franchise. I train athletes and regular Joe's and I can tell you that this is nothing but another marketing tactic appealing to the senses. It does not increase your energy levels any more than a cup of coffee. It's not high in calories which is good but what they claim is totally false. I suggest to my clients to stick with a multivitamin after every meal and plenty of rest in order to get the energy they need for pre and post workouts.
Hey! Maddie is a runner, cyclist, and yogi. She’s 26, lives in Los Angeles, CA and has been drinking FRS for 6 months. Her favorite FRS product is Low Calorie Orange Concentrate! Don't you dare besmirchify Maddy or FRS Health Energy Drinks - they are both paragons of integrity.
yes yes, Maddie Karlsson for vice-president!
