Life preserver for the weary

I have some big decisions I need to make in the coming days, so I’ve been in a restless state of affairs over the past week. It gets to the point where it’s the only thing I think about, and unfortunately usually happens when I’m trying to sleep.

Take last night for example where I only got around four hours of sleep. I woke up just before 3am and couldn’t stop thinking about the decisions I have to make, making it difficult to go back to sleep. 3am quickly turned to 3:20am, then 3:53am, then 4:25am, then 5:10am, and then 5:30am when my alarm was set to go off. It was so hard to focus during the first few hours at work today, but thankfully I have a backup for these situations. Behold the all mighty Zipfizz.

Seriously though, this is a life saver. It’s an energy supplement that’s sold in powder form which you add to water and stir it up to create a delicious energy cocktail. I’m not going to say it’s a healthy means of receiving energy, but it sure is a lot better than slamming down a soda, sipping coffee, or * bleh * choking down an energy drink like Monster. Which is odd to say since Monster HQ is just a few miles away from where I work.

The thing I like most about Zipfizz is that it doesn’t give you a sudden spike in energy followed by a sugar crash. Instead you just feel more alert and focused approx. 20 minutes after you drink it, with the effects lasting about six hours if you use the whole tube. When the effects wear off, there’s no sudden change in how you feel; you just go about the day as you normally would.

I guess this comes from the fact that a tube will give you a B12 shot containing 41,667% of your recommended daily intake. That’s right. Forty-thousand! The second highest vitamin intake is vitamin C with 833%, followed by a number of other dietary nutrients.

I rarely use Zipfizz now so to not have my system build an immunity to its energy boosting advantages, which is why I still have the limited run of the fruit punch flavored version that has an expiration date set for two months ago.

Btw: I know all of that above sounded like an ad for Zipfizz, but believe me: if I were being paid for endorsing products (which I don’t because this site doesn’t even have any advertisements plastered all over its pages), I wouldn’t have to be making these big decisions.
