5 hour energy against the Verve Energy Shot, no comparison

By Dr. Haywood Jablome

The energy shot market is huge as people are being depressed by all the crappy economic news. I am going to show the difference between market leader, 5 hour energy and newcomer, the Verve Energy Shot.

The 5 hour energy shot contains Vitamins ( Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, Niacin (Vitamin B3), Folic Acid (Vitamin B9). The Energy Blend in 5 hour Energy is Citicoline, Tyrosine, Phenylalanine, Taurine, Malic Acid, Glucuronolactone, Caffeine.

Minerals are essential for life. The Verve Energy shot has Proprietary Plant-Sourced Mineral Blend: 956 mg Carbon (Organic), Calcium, Sodium, Sulfur, Magnesium, Chloride, Bromide, Fluoride, Iodine, Potassium, Niobium, Aluminum, Iron, Phosphorus, Silica, Manganese, Boron, Strontium, Titanium, Tungsten, Copper, Zinc, Tin, Zirconium, Molybdenum, Vanadium, Chromium, Selenium, Nickel, Cobalt, Lithium, Gallium, Barium, Yttrium, Neodymium, Hafnium, Cadmium, Thorium, Antimony, Cerium, Tellurium, Beryllium, Samarium, Dysprosium, Erbium, Bismuth, Gadolinium, Cesium, Lanthanum, Praseodymium, Europium, Lutetium, Terbium, Ytterbium, Holmium, Thallium, Thulium, Tantalum, Germanium, Gold, Platinum, Rhodium, Rubidium, Ruthenium, Scandium, Silver, Indium. The Verve Energy Shot contains Taurine 1000 mg Guarana Seed Extract (standardized extract yielding 120 mg of caffeine) 300 mg D-Ribose 50 mg Inositol 50 mg Choline Chloride 10 mg Vitamin A (100% as beta carotene) 2500 IU 50% Vitamin C (as ascorbic acid) 300 mg 500% Vitamin D3 (as cholecalciferol) 1000 IU 250% Vitamin E (as d- alpha tocopheryl acetate) 60 IU 200% Thiamin (as thiamine hydrochloride) 1.5 mg 100% Riboflavin (as riboflavin U.S.P.) 1.7 mg 100% Niacin (as niacinamide) 20 mg 100% Vitamin B6 (as pyridoxine hydrochloride) 5 mg 250% Folate (as folic acid) 800 mcg 200% Vitamin B12 (as cyanocobalamin) 15 mcg 250% Biotin (as d- Biotin) 300 mcg 100% Pantothenic Acid (as calcium d-pantothenate) 10 mg 100% Selenium (as selenium amino acid chelate) 140 mcg 200% Proprietary Wildcrafted Mangosteen, Organic Glyconutrient-Rich Aloe Vera And Organic Green Tea Blend 25.2 g Reconstituted Mangosteen Juice (Garcinia mangostana L.) (fruit), Aloe Vera Gel (leaf), Green Tea (leaf) (decaffeinated), Mangosteen Extract (pericarp) (standardized 10% xanthones)

Looking at the two ingredient lists, it doesn't take very long to think, "What the heck am I paying $4 for a 5 hour energy shot?" The truth is, the Verve Energy shot is a complete liquid nutritional supplement as well as an energy booster.

Comparing the price of these two shots, the Verve Energy shot is actually less expensive than the 5 hour energy shot. The Verve Energy shot retails for $3, the 5 hour energy shot is usually selling for around $4.

Comparing the packaging of the two products, I think the Verve Energy shot has a much more appealing bottle. It looks like a skinny oil can and has a very neat shape to it. At retail next to a cash register, the Verve Energy Shot Bottle will stand out.

I tasted both and hands down, the Verve Energy shot tastes way better. The Verve energy shot tasted better cold, but wasn't too bad at room temperature as well. The 5 hour energy taste wasn't bad but had a strange after taste.

After looking at both of these Energy Shots, I think the Verve Energy shot has a shot at taking some market share from the 5 hour energy shot. Comparing ingredients, packaging and taste, there is a massive difference. - 17268
