General Information
I came across ZaZa Red Liquid Shot at a local smoke shop. The product looks a lot like a 5 hour energy drink, although its ingredients are far difference. It looks like it largely relies upon GABA and 5-HTP as its main ingredients, although it also contains Lemon Balm and Caffeine. There are some sugars and vitamins, probably for flavor and energy to counteract the taste and the sedative effects the other ingredients invoke. There is a United States flag, insinuating it is a USA product, although I am skeptical.
Administration
There are many warnings on the bottle, including the standard disclaimers (do not consume more than 1 bottle every two days, do not use if pregnant, consult a doctor before use). It also states not to use with alcohol or benzodiazepines. One serving size is one bottle. I consumed two of these bottles within a 2 hour period after eating some chicken wings and downing a pepsi cola.
Effects / Experience
Sick, sick, sick! I felt super ill after using this product. This is very abnormal for me, although, I did take double the dose. Still, I would not waste my money on it again. This product’s peak meant violently vomiting all of my food, and dry heaving for about an hour. I felt dizzy, disassociated (not in a good way), and overall upset that I had taken it. Regret set in about 60 minutes after taking it (unfortunately I just took the second bottle at about 50 minutes, when I did not realize I would have such a violent, terrible experience).
Final Notes
This product is dangerous in that it makes you dizzy, and gives you a sense of sickness nearly right away. I did not experience any favorable experiences from ZaZa Red, and felt it was a waste of money and time. I was upset that I ruined the rest of my Saturday night trying this product and would not recommend it to others. The only reason it does not receive a one star Fat Sammy review, is that I felt I would have had a less horrible time if I had followed the instructions and only consumed one bottle. Still, I cannot recommend this product.
