Update: This Stuff Is NOT Habit-Forming!

Okay...it was my absolute first time drinking an energy drink. My first experience with the guarana substance. And the following fact is what I'll take away from the exercize:

* Guarana uses PAIN to keep you awake.

About an hour after drinking my can of Ace I started getting a headache which stayed quite intense for about 12 hours. I was only able to bring it under control a little while ago by using an ice pack and a tablet of Ibuprofen. My body's plenty rested, but I couldn't sleep overnight.

Never thought I'd ever get such a bad trip from a can of "pop".

Yes, I'd still love to have the t-shirt, and the poster, and whatever advertising stuff Ace has, but if this is how guarana treats me, I'm not going to buy more cans of Ace itself soon.
