Who has tried them? Do they work?

My parents have a bunch of them and love them. My dad, in particular, says they give him a lot of energy for workouts and such

It's just caffeinated drink mix. I don't even mean that as a criticism, I had some as samples and they were fine--I don't know how much those cost, but you can get zipfizz which has a bunch of caffeine in it, for like 20 bucks for 20 packets on Amazon.

Edited to add: I have a few of the rockstar lemonade/tea cans at work for when I need to be kicked in the face with caffeine but coffee doesn't sound good

Thank you! I'll shop around and she what's best

What are you shopping for? If it's a caffeine fix, I guess coffee works. There's no magical weight-loss pill.

I tried it once when a friend brought it to work. It did absolutely nothing for me. A cup of coffee would have been more enjoyable.

I have a gym friend that has tried to sign me on with Advocare TWICE now... I did some of my own research and did not particularly care for what I learned.

I guess you could say caffeine then. I'm guessing that's what's in most of the drink mixes like that. I could always just drink green tea.

It's easy to fall into the habit of sweet drinks. I drink water, unsweetened tea, black coffee, and skim milk. All other drinks contain sugar, chemicals, or fat.

I took spark once and had severe diarrhea afterwards. Never tried it again.

Disclaimer – I don’t sell Advocare or use any of their other products.
With that said, I LOVE Spark, and am somewhat addicted to the fruit punch packets. I drink one every morning, and feel like it gives me a ton of energy and mental clarity. However, I never was a coffee drinker, so this could just be the effects of caffeine on my inexperienced system.
It is expensive, though. I’m going to try out a couple other brands to see if there’s something I like as much at a cheaper price point.

Just get the Mio Energy instead of the overpriced Advocare stuff.

I drink spark everyday and love it. Mango Strawberry is my favorite flavor!
