The makers of Bang Energy are at it again, this time with a drink that blurs the lines between energy drink, pre-workout supplement, and nootropic. But is it really “Cognitive Candy” as the label says? Let’s review the Science behind Noo Fuzion. What makes Noo Fuzion special and how does this drink compare to an energy drink like Red Bull? Or to a nootropic like Qualia Mind?

Science Behind Noo Fuzion - In This Post:

I’ve always been fascinated by caffeinated beverages, and by some of the energy drink stereotypes and caffeine misconceptions that just won’t go away. As a result, my mission as the “GreenEyedGuide” is to help people who deal with caffeine and fatigue on a regular basis.

Energy Drink Spottings in New Zealand

On a honeymoon to New Zealand, I couldn’t help myself. I dawdled at every store looking for energy drinks and caffeinated beverages I’d never seen before. I only found a few, but I’ve shared my gallery below. I was only there for a week or so, but I was surprised how seldom I saw any energy drinks at all. In Southern California, I spot people drinking energy drinks on a daily basis, or spot the crushed empty cans in a trash can. My fascination for energy drink habits in other countries is not a new interest, but it certainly is growing. If you’ve got a story to tell about energy drink habits in your neighborhood, I’d love to hear it.
