My birthday, party prep for a 4 year-old's birthday party, 2 sick kids and I pulled it off. The downside is I crashed after. I retreated for a long nap, but I deserved it. Hey, as Mom's don't we all have a full plate? We tackle a lot, juggle more than we probably should, but we are Moms. Okay, "Super" Moms really.
Yes, I really am tired of being tired.
What helped me? Well, it really required energy. A touch more than my cup of java was bringing to the table. Know what I mean?
So, when I heard about FRS Health Performance, I knew I wanted to try it out for myself.
I mean, when coffee loses it's kick I know I am truly dragging. I don't like to turn to sugar, soda or other ways to cope. I would prefer a healthier way to get things done. I really don't like those pesky caffeine headaches or the calories found in some of the other options.
I know, you are wondering what is FRS Health Performance about? Here is a bit from their website:
- Instead of using caffeine and sugar, the energy drinks and chews are fueled by Quercetin, a powerful antioxidant found in foods like blueberries, red apples and grapes, that works by naturally triggering your cells’ ability to produce sustained energy, so it’s a healthy alternative.
- Amidst a sea of beverages filled with high levels of sugar and high fructose corn syrup linked to America’s obesity epidemic, FRS® remains committed to providing sustained, natural energy with low calorie and low sugar options.
I tried the drinks first and didn't think they were as hard to swallow as some other energy drinks. I should tell you that I can't stand other energy options I have tried. Most of them remind me of medicine. This had a different taste, that I couldn't put my finger on, but it was not bad. And yes, I drank the second can I was sent.
I was most impressed with the chews. A little tart, but simple and fruity, I could chew one and it was done. I slipped the rest in my purse. Handy and portable. 4 to a pouch was more than one day's worth for me.
The Pomegranate Blueberry was my favorite.
I should add, despite my husband's skepticism, the product worked for me and helped me to get through the week leading up to the birthday party. I also didn't have any adverse side effects like a headache, as I have gotten from coffee, or stomach issues as I have had from energy boosting products I have tried in the past. I would use this product again if I needed it.
One of FRS top mom
advocates is Christie Rampone, the 35-year-old mother of two who has served as

Performance Team as an FRS® Ambassador to inspire others to fuel their best with

ReplyDeleteI sit in front of a computer all day & by the middle of the day, my energy is gone & I don't feel like having another cup of coffee. It would be nice to try to see if I could possibly still have some energy when I get home!
ReplyDeleteWith working out more I sometimes need that extra boost of energy to get through a good workout and still be able to do all my mommy things the rest of the day!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a mom of 3 active boys. Anything healthy to help me keep up with them would be great
ReplyDeleteI have 4 kids that have me running 5 days a week. I don't drink coffee, so when I drag I would love a real pick me up to be able to push through.
ReplyDeleteEveryone needs more energy!
ReplyDeleteWhenever I can I prefer to go with as healthy a product that I can get. Doesn't always happen but I try :)
