@Eric

It’s probably a reaction to the sucralose. (It’s common for artificial sweeteners to cause stomach issues.)

That’s one of the reasons I don’t recommend anything containing artificial sweeteners.

I used the powder and chews for two weeks and currently have very sharp pains in my stomach as well as no increase in energy. Canceled my membership today and wont be coming back. Do they even test this stuff before they release it on the open market?? Unreal.

I’ve tried several “energy vitamins/supplements” and I did find that using the FRS powder/chews worked the best for me. I don’t like swallowing pills and the powder/chews were extremely convenient. The major difference I noticed in my health was that my night vision was improved. Road signs were much clearer than before FRS. I did cancel out of the auto delivery and it only took one email.

I don’t like the free trial either, but I do like the product. Just pick some up at GNC and you don’t even have to hear the words “free trial.”

I almost fell for this until I looked closer at the terms:
Any company that offers you a free trial… and then says, oh ya but you only have to pay shipping and handling… and then puts you into monthly automatic delivery and billing that probably takes months to get cancelled – has to be a load of crap. If thier product was any good it would sell itself! Shame on you Lance for selling your soul.

Yes, the 3g sugar is the total sugar. That’s all from the juice concentrates, as the low-cal Orange liquid does not contain other sugar.

Coach Levi: I’ve started FRS Low-cal Orange…ingredients indicate only 3 grams of sugar; does that include the white grape juice and orange juice ingredients? I know grapes are loaded with sugar and being pre-diabetic. I don’t want to overload ono sugar!
Thanks for a great web site!!

the orange is all natural? it comes in cans and concentrate did you read the label? softchews have sugar in them, only need two if you hitting a river or hiking backcountry they are easily stored. I like that they do have some all natual, sugarfree, and some with sugar. different needs for different workouts. backcountry hike you want your calories. short river runs, not really. what i do is add it my protien shake if i need calories. I drink it for quercetin. works great for me. I have tried tons this so nice to be able to add it to anything!

@Diana

I agree, I’d like to see an all-natural version of each FRS product. Until then we’ll have to stick with the all-natural cans and liquid concentrate.

i have not tried it but i have ordered it.. i, like Lance, am a cancer survivor and i need the energy..however i do not like the fake sugar Why not have a low cal variety and a regular one..some of us are skinny and need the calories. I will give it a try for the energy, but the fake sugar is a no no as far as i am concerned..stay away from artifical stuff is how i feel now to stay cancer free.. thank you diana
