After reading a recent article at MensJournal.com about an energy supplement called “quercetin” has me very interested in finding out other guys results using it. Quercetin has been popularized recently by Lance Armstrong’s product “FRS”, which contains high dosage of the supplement.
FRS explains that quercetin is “one of natures more powerful and abundant antioxidants, found in the the fruits and vegetables like red apples, grapes, and berries. It helps to provide sustained energy and supports improved fitness levels.”
A can of FRS contains 325mg of quercetin and 85mg of green tea extract (caffeine), and the company advises consuming 2-3 servings a day. That’s over 1000mg of quercetin.
Studies have indicated that this stuff works. The guy who wrote the Men’s Journal article about quercetin, claims that his energy level is way up because of it after weeks of using it.
Have you tried FRS or any other supplements containing quercetin? If so, what is your experience with it? Should we all be trying it?
I’m always looking for more energy. Whether it be those work during the day when my mind decides to check out and productivity slips away, or at the gym when I’m not as energetic as I need to be to take it to the next level, I’m always looking for that edge. There’s been a lot of hype surrounding supplements in the past, and all seems to die off or the FDA yanks it for one reason or another. Remember how well Ephedrine worked?
Lance is doing it, so how bad can it be? He’s doing something right I’d say.
