I Drank Some G-Fuel

  There are a shit ton of streamers pushing this energy drink and there are some patchwork reviews for it here and there that all seem to end in the reviewer pushing the product.  It made it kind of hard for me to pick it up because I wasn't sure the full legitimacy of what I was picking up.  I wanted something that could give me a pick me up and maybe something lighter than a pre-workout before I hit the gym.  I decided that I wanted to give it a shot.

  After getting the package in the mail with the free glow in the dark shaker (when the hell will I ever use the glow in the dark feature?), I waited till the next day to see if I could use G-Fuel instead of my morning coffee.

The Taste

  It really just tasted like Kool-Aid but better.  I got the cherry limeade flavor and you can actually taste the flavor.  There wasn't a bad after-taste, nothing that tasted weird, it is easy to drink.  The shaker cup was actually convenient and made preparation easy.  What is important is I started to feel the effects pretty quickly. 

G-Fuel for Work

  G-Fuel claims it is made for gamers as it helps with focus and concentration.  I wanted to see if this would also help with my day job as the hours can drag and a little more concentration couldn't hurt. What it does do really well is give you a jolt of energy.  I usually have at least one cup of coffee in the morning and a red-eye (coffee with a shot espresso) in the afternoon to get me through my day.  Only one serving of G-Fuel was needed for me.

  Maybe it's because I don't drink a lot of energy drinks anymore but the one drink was almost a little much.  So much so I think I'll be reducing down to a half scoop tomorrow.   Even on my second day, I was feeling a little more wired than I felt I needed to be.  None the less it did work, the energy was there.  I can't claim it upped my focus a whole lot because I usually am but it was a definite replacement for not only my morning but afternoon cup of coffee.  It also didn't make my stomach rumble like a coffee can do sometimes. 

G-Fuel for Gaming

  I got a few hours of Fortnite and Final Fantasy in, after work hours of course. Since I had the energy to be alert in the game.  Since I felt a little wired I got a little more irritated with my gameplay but a dialed back dose should do the trick.  I once again didn't see a full on increase in my focus overtaking any other type of energy drink.  I did not feel sick after drinking it either, which chugging a monster can leave me with. 

G-Fuel for Gym

  With the amount of energy, this thing kicks out I had to try it as sort of a pre-workout like supplement.  The reviews get even more iffy here as there are people complaining it even prevents you from sweating.  This wasn't the case for me, I sweat plenty.  While I can feel like I am cracked out on pre-workouts this just made me feel like I had chugged a red bull before I started working out but without the feeling of having downed a bunch of sugar.  It didn't give me a boost in performance like some pre-workouts can but it did help me run a few miles a little faster and get a few more reps in.  It gave me energy and after a long workday that is something you just don't tend to have.

  All in all, I like the drink.  The taste is there, its very low on calories, and the price per serving is way cheaper then what I spend on the alternatives.  There isn't a low after or the feeling of having downed a bunch of crap.  I am a fan of it now and I think Ill keep ordering it.  If you are looking for a energy suppliment or alternative to energy drinks, this is worth a try.
