Caffiene Pills

Posted by fluffykitty on September 24, 2001, at 14:24:00

I started taking the pills when I just couldnt make myself a decent cup of coffee at home and got tired of Tasters Choice (although I still drink it sometime because to me its the best instant that tastes almost like real coffee and also has a good caffiene jolt!). I also wanted to stop intake of so much sugar and milk/cream etc. to try and lose weight. Didnt help in that regard however still probably better not to take in all that sugar and whatnot.

Anyway the other thing I like about the pills is that you can, like with a drug, regulate how much you are getting or want to take at a given time. Its hard to do that with coffee if you get it from different places or shops. Like pot the actual potency for a given quantity varies a lot. Ive also found that different brands have differing effects and potency. The best one I have found so far, better than Vivarin and NoDoz are the generic "Stay Awake" pills. They are round yellow tablets and are sold in supermarkets and drugstores like CVS as the generic brand. Im really mad because one of our supermarket chains that sold it was bought by a larger market and stopped selling it. However I found them in CVS but with a different coating. They are the most potent caffiene pills I have found. You take it and get a really good caffiene jolt high. Its incredible.

I tend to break it up in half or in quarters. For example I took 1/2 this am to get going and a 1/4 at about 1pm to pick me up and man I was flying and getting more work done!!! :)

I think perhaps I may be more sensitive to how my body reacts to food and drugs than some people. So some people may not notice how sugar or different caffiene pills affect them. They may not notice a difference in pills. I do. Vivarin is very weak. NoDoz is better. But these generics are so much better!!!

I still like a good cup of coffee though. Its a treat. There are a couple cafes around that I like to go to when I want the real thing. And when Im lazy there's Tasters Choice! :)
