“My days are especially strenuous and I need something to help keep me going. FRS is the sustained energy choice for me”
- Lance Armstrong – 7 Time Tour de France Winner
Champion athlete, father, businessman, and cancer activist – Lance Armstrong’s typical day is booked solid. And he can’t miss a beat in any of his activities. Sound familiar? Not only does FRS Healthy Energy products give him the energy he needs to juggle his busy life, it helps him train hard to stay in top form as a cyclist.
But even if you’re not planning to take on the Alps this year, FRS Healthy energy can help you take your workout to the next level and keep your life moving at a good pace.
Unlike other heavily-caffeinated energy drinks,
- FRS does not drop you with a crash or jitters.
- Nor will it give you that immediate buzz you might expect from an energy drink.
Instead, FRS is formulated to give you a more subtle energy lift over a long period of time.
So what’s our secret? FRS Healthy Energy unlocks and extends your body’s own natural energy, using a patented formula fueled by quercetin. Quercetin is a powerful antioxidant found in the skins of apples, red onions, in berries and chocolate as well as numerous other fruits and vegetables.
Quercetin works to give you sustained energy in two ways:
Quercetin destroys the stuff that makes your body tired.
Just about all metabolic processes in our body causes the release of free radicals. Free radicals are like vandals that damage tissue in our body and cause fatigue. Quercetin, like many other antioxidants, binds with and inactivates these troublemakers. Yet unlike other antioxidants, quercetin has an extra long half-life in the blood – up to 28 hours - which means it sticks around longer than most antioxidants.
The ORAC test measures the total antioxidant power of foods. The higher the ORAC score, the better a food or beverage destroys free radicals. Recently, researchers conducted an ORAC test of FRS and compared its score to other popular antioxidant or energy drinks. Here's what they found:

All of us could use this extra protection to keep our bodies in top condition.
For athletes, this antioxidant power is particularly important because it helps muscles recover better from the wear and tear of exercise.
Each serving of FRS healthy energy contains 325 mg of quercetin.
Researchers believe that quercetin interferes with the breakdown of our body’s own naturally-produced charge - adrenaline. Our body produces the hormone adrenaline to help us power through any stress-filled event – a big presentation, a high-powered workout, a non-stop slew of errands. Adrenaline helps us release energy stored in glycogen and fats, so our body can meet these challenges and finish strong.
Over time the adrenaline breaks down, requiring our body to make even more of it. Quercetin seems to inhibit the activity of the enzyme COMT that breaks down adrenaline in the blood.
In the high-speed, stress-filled, multi-tasking world we live in, our body depends heavily on adrenaline to keep us going. FRS allows our body to make the most of this important hormone while reducing the demand on our body to make more.
Along with the powerhouse quercetin, FRS Healthy Energy contains green tea catechins and 100% RDA of Vitamins B1, B2 B3, B6, B12, C and E. And yes, there is a little bit of caffeine. Only 48 mg, about the same amount as a 1/3 of a cup of coffee, it works to kick start the metabolic process.
FRS’s quercetin-fueled formula helps your body to stop fatigue at its roots and extend your body’s own natural means of staying alert and active.
But don’t just take our word for it, FRS has been shown in clinical trials to effectively boost athletic performance, fight fatigue and increase mental alertness:
It’s no accident that champion cycler Lance Armstrong stocks up on FRS each month.
An independent, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study at Pepperdine University in 2004 found that FRS improved the performance of elite cyclists. On average, the participants who drank FRS dropped 1 minute and 31 seconds off the average time of participants who did not take FRS in 30 km simulated mountainous time trial.
Who doesn’t hit that mid-afternoon slump, especially towards the end of the work-week?
Well, FRS can help you in this department as well. At the Department of Oncology at Santa Barbara Medical Clinic, researchers conducted a double-blind randomized study on the effects of FRS on a group of volunteers aged 49 to 69 who had been diagnosed with advanced-stage cancer for at least 1.6 years (talk about fatigue!). The results were dramatic:
89.8% reported having more energy
33% reported having less fatigue
14% reported having better concentration
Who couldn’t use a little clearing of the cobwebs in the brain?
FRS has been clinically proven to increase mental acuity at work. University employees with jobs requiring physical exertion, repetitive movements and attention to detail were asked to take FRS over a period of 6 weeks and report the results. At the end of the time period . . .
35.6% reported experiencing less work frustration
45.5% reported less fatigue
24% reported better concentration
“I need a healthy source of energy. As an athlete and a cancer survivor, I have to think about what I put into my body. After studying the science behind FRS, I feel confident in making it a part of my daily routine. FRS fits with me wanting to live to be 90 and beyond, when I’ll still be running marathons, riding my bike, staying fit and having fun.”
