Can this drink help with concentration?

[Jos342]

I've seen today a drink called Turbo Fit LadyFitness.I assume that it is meant for women, but that does not bother me,because it might improve mental concentration. How strong will thiseffect be? Is it good enough for studying, or only a little morefocus in the gym?

It's Russian and as I can't read Russian I can't see what the ingredients are. Can you translate them and post them here?

Basically, this drink contains caffeine and guarana (which is basically like coffee as well), hence their claim about the mental concentration. You can just drink a cup of coffee, and get absolutely the same effect without the added sugar in this particular drink.

stimulants do temporarily increase focus, but in the long run it will backfire on you depending on stims for this purpose

the supplement is just making outlandish claims to get sales

90% of the time my go-to pre workout drink is coffee.

Just drink a cup of coffee. That will give you a little better focus. Just not too late at night as to affect sleep.

It's basically the same thing as Red Bull. It's essential a soft drink with extra caffeine added.

One of the biggest misconceptions I see people commonly make is thinking that energy drinks are health foods. They contain just as much sugar and calories as regular pop.

If you want a caffeine boost - either drink a cup of black coffee or take a caffeine pill. It'll give you the same effect but without any of the calories/sugar.
