      5 hour energy?

      ive been reading around and its pretty much common knowledge that vitamin b6 helps u get lucid in a dream. i hav a bunch of 5 hour energy's for my track meets but just recently i read the nutrition info (i was bored) and i found out it has a lot of vitamin b6 and b12 (dunno if b12 affects lucidity or not but it has a b in it so i guess it might ) would it like help u get lucid or keep u awake all night?

      Depends. Such energy stuff never keeps me awake, coffee can wake me up but not keep me awake and nothing else can. So for me it could work, depends on you.

      Personally I'd go for B6 supplements. B6 alone has been known to give people trouble sleeping (because of a highly active metabolism when ingested), and the caffeine from an energy drink probably wouldn't help matters.

      B12 can help, reportedly. It allegedly helps Dream Recall, but I've noticed little difference.

      wow. i can also drink4 redbulls, be hyper for a while and then go to bed
      But it's not good to drink 4 redbulls in a very short time. that can make you a diabetic.

      Learnt it in school. When we get big amounts of sugar going out to the blod fast, the body produces insuline in huge amounts.
      After a while the cells in the body get resistant to insuline, and the cells won't pick up the sugar and make you a diabetic.

      ??

      Really?


      When i used to work our everyday, I always drank 2 shots of 5 Hour energy. which is about 3-4 redbulls in caffeine.

      I used to drink it WHILE running, and id run about 2-3 miles.

      I just read about a new decaf 5 hour energy. It has less than 6 mg of caffeine. Plus it's riddled with B6 and B12 as well as Choline.

      Anyone wanna give it a shot? I probably will.
