I did not like the taste at all, and thought it was gross...but, you can easily solve this problem by putting it in juice or in a smoothie. Just don't put it in plain water. I have always hesitated to try this kind of thing...my boyfriend drinks canned energy drinks, but I never have, as I always was suspicious of them. But when I got mine, and read the ingrediant list, I felt like they were safe to use. I liked, very much, that they used herbs, instead of a bunch of questionable chemicals. The addition of Kola nut gives me the boost I need, and, I feel really good knowing that I am ingesting herbs that will help my exhausted body.
Mostly, I am just really impressed with the ingrediants! Fianlly, an energy drink that I can actually feel good about using.
I mixed an ampule with a half glass of Tropicana pure orange juice every morning the past week and after a few days I did notice an increase in my energy levels by lunchtime. I would normally be waning by lunch and specifically after lunch I am generally quite tired. I didn't feel this after a few days. I felt steady all day at work, from 7 am to 3pm. I felt more energized in general. Whatever supplements are in this, they do their job! I will definitely use again!
I was excited about trying Super Energex for free through Chick Advisor.
I found the taste unappealing, but I just swallowed it quickly and it really wasn't an issue. Orange juice works better than water, if you really need to mask the taste. I still have a couple and I think I might try 'hiding' them in smoothies as others have suggested.
I didn't think the price was that bad IF the product works for you.
As for effectiveness, I haven't really noticed an effect, other than the little boost I get from the caffeine (I don't consume caffeine typically, so I am a little more sensitive than most, I think.) I might not be the right 'target market' for this product because I found it to be a lot like an energy drink....I don't like or need to use those. The long-range effect (which is what I need) was imperceptible to me, but for anyone looking for an instant boost and the knowledge that they've taken their vitamins too, this product could work.
I received this product free of charge from chickadvisor. I do not recommend it. Had it for about a week, it tastes bad with water, I do not taste the orange in it at all. Was not interested in drinking more.
These were not good at all. I was nervous about them right away when I saw them. The flavour on the box was orange and the colour of the liquid in the capsules was green.... I decided to give it a go. I mixed it with orange juice and drank it really fast. It was gross!! I didnt feel any different after trying them for a week.
I received this product free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club and I absolutely love it! Gives me the energy I need to start my day with out the jitters that other products leave me feeling. I will be buying this and recommend it to my family and friends.

This product arrived at my place just in time. I was switching over from a evening shift to a day shift.
Short shifting always kicks me on my butt and I struggle the entire week to catch up on sleep.
For the week I used this Super Energex pick me up in the morning.
I didn't like the taste of it in water. After a couple days of just mixing it in water I decided to try it with
juice. I found that I only need a small glass of juice to mask the taste.
As for results, the short shifting still had me exhausted! I struggled to get up in the morning. For the first
couple days I was still really craving coffee in the morning. Then once I started taking it with juice, I was
actually completely drinking the entire cup... I finally started to notice that I didn't feel the usual coffee
cravings.
I will continue to use this product. After finding it helpful later in the week I plan to only take it with
juice to ensure I can actually tolerate drinking the entire dosage. I have decreased the amount of coffee
I have been drinking. Also, I seen to be sleeping well at night which is huge for me. Once vial of this
product in the morning and I will skip my afternoon coffee. Then get a better nights rest.
i received these for free to review!!!! i first would like to say the taste is not bad as long as you use very cold apple juice ...i just add the lil ampule and stir and drink it down....the drink is sweet ....i have used them for 5 days now and really find i have much more stamina to get a lot more things done... gardening and cleaning the house and working is a lot less tiring the last 2 days!!!! i will use them again but i do find it took a couple doses to kick into my system.....
I'm literally amazed at how good this is making me feel. The flavour is fantastic, and it does exactly what it says it does. Since I started using it, I feel clearer and more awake - all day long! I highly recommend it!!
I was excited for the chance to try this via the Chick Advisor Product Review Club as I frequently suffer from fatigue and would love to increase my energy levels. I was impressed with the ingredient list, particularly the Ashwagandha, which is supposed to help with adrenal fatigue. I admit I did not love the taste of the product! If taking it with water, I had to plug my nose and gulp it down. It smells and tastes like your typical B vitamin mix and I found "hiding" it in my smoothie was best! I did not experience an instant energy rush that others have claimed to, but I imagine my adrenal fatigue will not be cured overnight. Also, I'm not sure why they bothered putting free-form B12 into the mix as it cannot withstand the acid in your stomach. This is why doctors give B12 in the form of shots or recommend sub-lingual supplements for those deficient.
I was excited to see they make an Energex capsule (which I would much prefer to take) but it does not contain the Ashwagandha or the Maca.
At this point, I would only buy the product if I found a super duper sale on it but I think I will continue to look for a similar product containing the ginseng mix (especially Ashwagandha) and the Maca, that comes in capsule form.
Adrien Gagnon, if you are listening, please make this product into capsules! (And don't bother with the B12 since it will be destroyed by stomach acid before our bodies can use it.)
