Perhaps I would need to continue using this product for longer periods of time in order to feel the effects, but personally I didn't really notice any change in energy or alertness after use. In terms of flavour, I didn't mind the taste although I would have preferred an option other than orange. I generally popped these into my morning smoothies and found it was an easy way to have them, but I didn't notice any changes from them. Perhaps I should have tried two at once in order to feel the full effect.
I was provided complimentary bars in exchange for my honest review.

I liked this product because it was a quick way to get more energy without drinking more coffee which tends to give me the shakes if I drink many cups of it throughout the day. I mixed this with orange juice with breakfast which didn't completely mask the taste but was tolerable. I found that it did give me a little boost of energy so if I knew I had something that would require a lot of energy I would use it in the morning. I just found it odd that you are only supposed to take it for up to a month continuously when I could drink coffee daily so these might not be the most useful if you need energy boosts daily.
I was very excited to get these and try them out. I rely on coffee to give me the energy I need to get through the day at work; so this sounded like a better/healthier option to try out.
What I didn't like
- the ampoules were very hard to use. They were tricky to break open; especially day 1 at work when I didn't have scissors or a knife to cut them open with... so I did not get to try them out day 1 after all :(. Cue day 2.... I figured out they needed to be separated before breaking one open to use!!
- they really smelled nasty. Not like orange as the package stated. So don't sniff them!
- they don't taste great - palatable at best. Don't try it in a glass of water! Eeeww. I finally settled on either pineapple or pomegrate juice. They turn the juice the color of swampwater. But these juices mask the taste best
what I did like
- once I figure out how to separate and open the ampoules, they are easily slipped into a pocket and can go anywhere
- they did seem to give me a boost of energy, especially mid morning when I can start to droop and need an extra push forward.
I am happy I got to try them, I didn't love them but enjoyed them. I probably would not purchase them though -too complicated to use
I received this Super Energex as part of the @ChickAdvisor #ProductReviewClub for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.
When I first tried this I didn't have any orange juice as per the directions and tried it with water instead. Well, let's just say there is a bit of a chalky aftertaste. But the next day I tried it with orange juice, it did taste better and a little more pleasant. The product itself comes in a single dose package and is easy to open. I did notice a small boost in my energy level and alertness. I just wish this came in pill form instead, but understand that liquid form helps to get into the blood stream quicker. Overall I would probably buy this as a healthier alternative to drinking caffeine.

Unfortunately, I couldn't get past the taste. I tried one and it didn't seem to have any effect on me, I would have continued trying a few more times to see if the effect changed but the taste was not something I was ready to experience again. to me, it was like a bitter cough syrup.
I tried this with water and then with orange juice.
I tired the Adrien Gagnon Super Energex with water and orange juice but did not like the taste. I felt a bit more energetic after drinking it but, for me, the taste is not bearable. I received this product as part of the ChickAdvisor product review club. Also the packaging is not the greatest. As I tore off a vial to use it, the vial leaked.
I received this product from the Chickadvisor Product Review Club. I mixed the vial with half of a small glass of orange juice and it tasted fine. The closest thing I can compare it to is a B complex vitamin. Gave me a little bit more energy but nothing super fantastic. The one good thing is that it kicks in faster than a B vitamin. So you get your burst of energy fairly quickly . I might buy this in the future.
I received this product for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. I added to my smoothie and didn't notice the taste much so that was good. I found that my energy level was good for a part of the day but I would not say all day. I would certainly not use for more than a week due to the ingredients but for the times that I feel a bit run down it would be fine to use.
I liked the taste much better than other brands I have tried. I don't feel more energetic than before but maybe over time I will. Thank you so much for choosing me to try.
The first time I tried this product, I was shocked by its strong smell and taste. I could not take it down with just plain water - it made me want to throw up. Drinking it with orange juice was a better combination, but still not pleasing to my taste buds. I have noticed slight improvements in my energy level as a result of this product - I am able to power through my workouts. Overall, while this product is somewhat effective, I would not recommend it due to its awful taste.
