    I once heard that an apple gives you as much energy as you would get from the caffiene in a cup of coffee.

    The free trial says that they will ship out a monthly supply automatically, how much does that actually cost?

    You can cancel at any time, or have them send as much or as little as you want. I have them send me one bottle of cocentrate a month ($20). If you are going to cancel or change what you want make sure its right after you get it, because they will send you $70 worth right after the 2 week trial. I learned the hard way, but still used it all up.

    You really should give coffee a shot though. It's got it's drawbacks like anything else, but it's fairly healthy for you overall with everything else that gets brewed into the coffee too (caffeine excluded).

    You can make a 'tea' out of ginger and/or ginseng by just boiling it in water.
    Some asian supermarkets and specialty stores have powdered ginseng for this, and they swear by it as some of it gets ridiculously expensive!

    You can also add fresh grated ginger to foods or cook it with your food to flavor it.

    I have eaten too much ginger to where it keeps me up at night like drinking too much coffee.

    THIS WORKS!!

    Drinking the proper amount of water a day will completely boost your energy more than you'd ever know. Keep a gallon with you at work if you can.

    You might want to read on the glycemic index a bit.

    I don't know what kind of physical condition you are in, but consistent exercise will also help with you energy level.

    The body is a tricky thing and everybody is different. I'm sure your doctors can also lend some solid advice for you.

    Cocaine comes from a plant. Does it count as a natural energy booster?

    Eat Breakfast in the morning.
    Eat smaller portions of food throughout the day.
    Make sure you have a good quality bed.
    Can you eat chocolate? There is some caffeine in chocolate. Make sure you get the one that says the percentage of coco in it.

    I take GNC MegaMen Energy in the morning. Awesome stuff. Of course, you should run it by the doc first. Twice a year, you can get it for $17/month if you buy six months at a time with a GNC gold card, which is around $15. May sound like a lot for a vitamin, but it's worth it.

    this FRS stuff has a good amount of caffeine in it for something where the energy is supposedly coming from a non-caffeine source

    riiight, "metabolic enhancer".. or.. "energy source"
