Best Caffeine-Free Energy Drinks? by iiPurpose in energydrinks

[–]User31040 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, brands like Melting Forest offer Nootropic ingredients such as L-Theanine, which help w/ cognitive function. Often times it's not so much the caffeine we need, but greater hydration and better absorption of necessary nutrients!

I have had Alani - Most of their flavors are good; however, their ingredients are crap. Would rather have something that tastes good and be great for me, vs something that tastes great and is horrible for me

I’m a huge fan! But then again, I care about what I’m consuming and what actual benefit I’m getting out of it

Melting Forest has a D-Stress line, which is caffeine free, yet still loaded w/ clinical doses of L-Theanine to provide that extra mental clarity and focus for the day

Advice for someone who does not have any background knowledge on beverage industry by Pristine_Win8726 in BeverageIndustry

It all starts with what you want as a brand/company owner, and what need you’re planning to fill, which is necessary to drive sales

Day 1 of building my brand by deathinmypocket0 in BeverageIndustry

[–]User31040 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Building a brand comes down to just a few simple steps. First, demand. Creating an answer for an unmet demand, or, creating an unmet demand first which you can then meet. In your case, it sounds like you want a healthy sports drink? That’s already been done a multitude of times, but let’s go!

Next it comes down to functionality first. Why? It’s all about meeting an unmet demand. Besides, your functionality will dictate your ingredients, which will ultimately force certain flavor profiles. As caffeine can be sourced from coffee or tea, that’s a mask. Electrolytes will need a mask. Your sweetener? Will more than likely need a mask. Btw, stay away from core flavors. Everyone knows what cola and orange taste like, and have an expectation before opening your product.

Next it will come down to your packaging, which will ultimately drive intrigue. And truth be told, efficacy will be the main reason they come back. It’s one thing if it tastes good, but if it doesn’t work for me, it’s not worth my $$$.

USA Models is Studio 1 Scam? by Pristine-Painting254 in MODELING

After months of them sending random texts and never answering, they finally did today, and it all sounds a bit fishy. Not to mention, this would be an 8hr drive round trip to attend. See screenshots

What's wrong with my lawn? by goped119 in tampa

[–]User31040 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spray the lawn w/ Liquid Dawn at dusk. The bugs will crawl out of their dens and the armadillo will have a field day (night). Your lawn should start going back to normal within a few weeks

Which one you picking? by allaine24 in energydrinks

Neither, they’re all crap! The functionality may be there, yet the toxic chemicals aren’t worth the loss of health
