What is in the 5 hour energy? |
|
I tried this the other night - just one shot - along with a B6 pill and melatonin. I stayed up later than usual until I felt tired and finally went to bed around 12:45. I woke up around four, wrote down a dream. No dreams when I woke up around 9:00, and I was a little disappointed because I didn't think I'd be able to have any more dreams. My boyfriend went downstairs, but I was still tired so I fell back asleep. |

It also has choline in it! ...which I've heard increases lucid activity as well. I've got one more shot so I'll probably try it again this week. It's about $5 for two shots at Walgreens. The decaf is citrus flavored and it's not too bad although I would recommend following it up with some water. |

I've had very good results with Brawndo and RockStar. Not sure of the exact ingredients, but they at least have Taurine and caffeine in common with 5-Hour Energy. |

I suspect the Tyrosine and Phenylalanine have a lot to do with it as well. I had success on Tyrosine. Tyrosine and I believe Phenylanlanine increase dopamine, according to the Advanced Lucid Dreaming book Dopamine makes dreams vivid, perhaps is necessary to dream. It also gives you energy, and I beleive you must be at a fine line between sleep and wakefulness in order to lucid dream. |

awhile ago I bought a case of extra strength 5 hour energy off of ebay, best energy drink I have ever had. I noticed that the ingredients could help with this but they just give me way too much energy to fall asleep. |
