Exhaustion Creating Boom in Energy Products: Stress, Longer Work Hours, Menopause Contributing Factors

Exhaustion Creating Boom in Energy Products: Stress, Longer Work Hours, Menopause Contributing Factors

The recent boom in energy-related products has high school districts across the country concerned about the potential dangers of concentrated caffeine-based products; enough so that they have begun to send warning flyers home to parents. What officials may be failing to recognize is that adults, suffering from longer work hours, job stress, irregular or poor eating habits, even menopause-related insomnia, are among the largest users of energy boosting products.

Fairfield, NJ (PRWEB) December 1, 2007 –

The recent boom in energy-related products has high school districts across the country concerned about the potential dangers of concentrated caffeine-based products; enough so that they have begun to send warning flyers home to parents. What officials may be failing to recognize is that adults, suffering from longer work hours, job stress, irregular or poor eating habits, even menopause-related insomnia, are among the largest users of energy boosting products. For a nation seeming to run on exhaustion, the good news is that today’s adults are transitioning from using concentrated caffeine products like Red Bull and Monster to the more natural, and powerful, vitamin B-12 boost found in products like NutraMist’s Energy Shots.

Vitamin B-12: A Natural Energy Boost
Hailed as the “energy” or anti-fatigue vitamin, B12 is required for metabolizing carbohydrates, fats, and protein and is essential to maintaining healthy nerve and red blood cells. For today’s over worked and over stressed adults, fatigue may be the result of a diet low in B12 rich foods, such as organ meats, fish, crab, oysters, egg yolk, and milk products, or simply because the absorption of this vital food-based nutrient decreases with age.

NutraMist executive Ellen Leikind said, “Vitamin B12 is a much healthier approach to energy supplementation than caffeine. With B12 products like Energy Shots, you don’t experience the jitters or edginess that concentrated caffeine products are predisposed to cause. In fact, the B12 experience tends to be a more euphoric level of energy.”

B12 Versus Concentrated Caffeine
The jitters and edginess concentrated caffeine-based products yield are, according to Leikind, symptoms that typically result from raised blood pressure and heart rate. Additionally, she noted, “Caffeine tends to dehydrate the body and, like all stimulants, prevents sleep. B12 gives you the energy you need quickly, but without the nasty side effects of concentrated caffeine. Perhaps that’s why it’s also known as the longevity vitamin.”

NutraMist’s Energy Shots, delivered in an oral spray, affords 1500 mcg of B12 per spray – roughly 3 times the lower, intramuscular therapeutic dose used in treating adult fatigue. Said Leikind, “Because B12 has no upper limit and is considered a safe vitamin, for most adults it’s the best alternative to concentrated caffeine products.” 

NutraMist formulas include Energy Shots, Immune Boost, Crave Control, and Sleep Now are available at CVS, Walgreens, Vitamin Shoppe, GNC, Rite Aid, Longs, Duane Reade and more.
