In the USA i’ve seen a couple and i think there is a supplement called “charge it” which you can add to your drink to give you a boost throughout the day. I’m very active and don’t like all these ingredients i keep finding out about on the energy and sports drinks i sometimes use.
Any advice would be great 
Thanks.
ebestenergydrink.com What is the Best Energy Drink in this industry? I believe it is Crave Energy Drink Why you may ask Well I will give you 5 reasons WHY 1. The sugar there is less than 1 gram of sugar per serving in Crave (compared to 25+ grams in Red Bull, Monster, Rock Star) 2. Crave has 9 Calories per servings (compared to 100+ in all the other leading brands) 3. A Energy Drink on the go (Crave comes in a read to go packet) 4. Crave is able online 24/7 at rightchoice.cravedrink.com 5. The Price Crave is only $.85 per serving (shipped to your door) compared to $1.99+ for all other energy drinks The price for Crave is so much cheaper than any other Energy Drink because the money being spent on advertising isn’t being spent promoting Crave the makers of Crave are paying me and many others to recommend, promote, & share Crave with others. Those are the 5 reasons why I think Crave Energy Drink is the Best Energy Drink.

What Other Energy Products Are Out There Besides Energy Drinks?

Are consumers tired of energy drinks? According to global analysts Mintel, the number of consumers taking energy drinks/shots has remained at a flat 15 percent between 2007 and 2009. It may be time for supplement manufacturers to develop more energy drink products, containing less caffeine, less sugar and more nutrition and flavor—energy products that would suit the needs of a wider audience.
Energy drinks are consumed mostly for their stimulant effect produced by a caffeine content which could range from 50 to 505 mg per can or bottle. Up until now, energy drink companies have been producing products with alluring names such as “Full Throttle” and “Rockstar”, mainly targeting young males. Promotional campaigns sponsoring campus concerts and parties have made energy drinks a national craze among students. But, according to global analysts Mintel, beyond the youth category, energy drink manufacturers are having a tough time attracting new customers.
Data from the Mintel Global Market Navigator (GMN) reveals just why energy drinks may have lost their drive. Amongst non-users of energy drinks, 48 percent find them too expensive, 43 percent say they have too much caffeine, and 43 percent believe that energy drinks/shots are just not good for their health. According to the same survey, approximately 16 percent of people surveyed said they would be willing to try free samples of a new energy product. Many of these said they would prefer energy drinks with natural ingredients.
Supplement Manufacturers Can Fill Unmet Consumer Needs
As Americans grow more health-conscious, energy products that give a healthy boost of energy along with nutritional health benefits are attracting more attention.
In order to gain more market share, manufacturers may want to consider turning their advertising efforts to target older consumers. A consumer research study by Mintel revealed that men and women over the age of 55 are more active and one-third of them would consider purchasing an energy or cereal bar.
Ingredients for Nutritional Energy Products
The concept of an energy drink is popular as people continue to look for more and more ways to keep up with their hectic lifestyles. Energy products are typically manufactured in the form of energy drinks as this is the most convenient form of delivery. It also offers quick bio-availability of nutrients.
A healthy formula may include:
Quercetin, a flavonoid found in the skin of fruits such as blueberries and apples. Concentrated forms of quercetin promote sustained energy levels. It is an antioxidant that has anti-inflammatory properties and promotes sustained energy levels.1-2
Green tea is rich in antioxidants, particularly EGCG (epigallocatechin gallate), which is supported by a growing body of scientific research for promoting heart health, immune health and also known to help “burn calories”.3 Green tea does have a caffeine content but it is about 12 percent of the caffeine content found in energy drinks such as “Red Bull”.
Co-enzyme Q10. This vitamin-like substance is found in the mitochondria of every cell and is required in the production of cellular energy.4
Ginseng has been used for 2,000 years in Chinese medicine for promoting health, vitality and energy.5
Guarana contains a level of caffeine that is four times greater than that of coffee, with stimulating effects that longer lasting. It is one of the most popular natural ingredients in energy drinks because of its high caffeine content. It is also believed to stave off hunger.6
Rhodiola rosea is an herb found mainly in Siberia. It is an antioxidant believed to have adaptogenic properties. Some studies show that it relieves mental fatigue and may support cognitive functions.7
B-vitamins can be included in energy drinks to enhance nutritional value. They are known to play a role in energy production.8
D-ribose is a natural sugar that is known to enhance energy levels and promote heart functions. Only half as sweet as sucrose, D-ribose also helps to regulate healthy blood sugar levels.9-10

I’m looking for any retailer in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, that sells the energy drink Bawls.
We’ve been looking for it all over, and the official store locator on the site wont work, and doesn’t list Nova Scotia as one of the locations.
