How many of you are aware of algae’s wonderful health benefits? To be honest, I never knew that algae could be ingested let alone good, no…simply ahhmazing for you until recently! While prowling around on other blogs I have been finding tons of reviews on ENERGYbits. Of course I had to see what all the buzz was about. After contacting ENERGYbits I was offered a sample and a ton of high quality information regarding algae and all it has to offer.
ENERGYbits
Energy Bits are little tabs made out of one simple ingredient, 100% organically grown spirulina algae. As the name suggests, Energy Bits help increase energy, athletic performance and mental vitality. It will give you a boost that does not have the accompanying crash or jittery feeling but rather a longer, steady and sustained type energy. Containing a minimum of 60% protein, Energy Bits is often used as a high protein snack. They can help curb hunger or can be used as a meal replacement with only one single calorie in each tab. Energy Bits also aid in reducing fatigue and balancing out blood sugar levels.

My Thoughts:
As I previously mentioned, I had been doing a lot of reading on Energy Bits before contacting them for a review. Therefore, when I recieved my sample I was very excited but proceeded with caution. Why you ask? Probably for the same reason why I do not have a fish tank in my home. I dispise the smell of algae. Of course the very first thing I did was open the tin and smell them and sure enough they do indeed smell like algae because they are! They are an extremely green product and it is said that they are an acquired taste. A serving is 30 tabs that can be either swallowed or chewed. For those brave souls that chew them I commend you. For those that plug your nose and swallow them, I can totally relate. However, the effects truly outweigh the smell.
The sample I recieved contained roughly sixty tabs. I wanted to test these out more than two different days so I did some rationing with them. The first day I took about twelve. I felt good during the day and looked forward to taking them again. After all, I wanted to make sure that it was the real deal and not some type of placebo effect where I thought I was feeling something I wasn’t. A few days later I was signed up for a 5K where I took a full serving about an hour before the race. During the race I felt really good. I had never ran the route before and there was a good amount of hills and terrain I am not used to running on. I credit Energy Bits with giving me the extra push if you will that I needed. The best part is I was not all jacked up feeling at the end, shaky or even tired. It was definitly enough to make me want to purchase them in the future.
Speaking of purchasing, ENERGYbits retail for $115.00 for a bag of 1,000 tabs. I know many of you are re-reading the above amount to make sure you are indeed reading correctly. However, when you add up all the energy drinks, protein bars, shakes, etc. there is no denying that ENERGYbits cost your wallet and health much less. ENERGYbits are only available at ENERGYbits.com, and Jonathan (their Brand Manager) has shared with me that he’d be happy to connect anyone with a current ambassador to share a discount on a bag of bits – you can email him at [email protected].
