Beekeeper’s Naturals – B.LXR Brain Fuel Nootropic Review

CLEAN INGREDIENT SCORE

The B.LXR Brain Fuel energy shot has earned a clean ingredient score of an “A” for its all natural formulation. The B.LXR contains just five simple ingredients: royal jelly, bacopa monnieri plant extract, ginkgo biloba leaf extract, non-gmo vegetable glycerin, and purified water. All of the ingredients included are 100% natural, gluten-free, caffeine free, and free from sugars, wheat, yeast, soy, corn, dairy, eggs, and anything artificial.

PRODUCT DESIGN & EFFECTIVENESS

The B.LXR from Beekeeper’s Naturals has earned a Product Design & Effective Score of an “A+” for their easy to use and super effective caffeine-free brain fuel drink. For our trial, a team of 2 reviewers reviewed the B.LXR Brain Fuel drink for approximately 30 days. During this month trial, our reviewers used 1/2 vial of B.LXR every morning before breakfast. It is important to note that during this 30 day review period, our reviewers abstained from their normal caffeine usage voluntarily. This allowed them to compare their perceived energy levels with the B.LXR vs their normal energy sources.

First and foremost, using the B.LXR Brain Fuel drink is super easy. Each package comes with six glass vials factory sealed in a resealable wax top. Each vial can be easily divided into 1/3, 1/2, and full-vial doses (per the official usage instructions). Beekeeper’s Naturals recommends 1/3 vial for “daily support,” 1/2 vial for “upgraded performance,” and a full vial for “peak brain power.” Thus, a standard 6-vial pack can last as much as 18 uses (1/3 vial) and as few as 6 uses (1 vial).

When it comes to performance, the B.LXR is second to none compared to other natural energy alternatives we’ve reviewed. According to our reviewers, the B.LXR actually delivers on its promise of providing “more focus”, “tons of energy”, and “mental stamina.” Without jitters, crashes or caffeine, the B.LXR manages to provide a noticeable amount of “energy” and personal stamina. One reviewer described the energy as “a subtle, but obvious boost of energy. I just feel capable of tackling my to-do list without the anxious jitters from coffee.” There were no reports of excessive energy, sleeplessness, or “crashes” from our reviewers over the 30 day period.  The B.LXR scored its lowest scores in the area of taste. The B.LXR Brain Fuel is very reminiscent of ginkgo biloba–a strong, earthy taste. This is tapered somewhat by the slight sweetness in the royal jelly. Even though the taste was not the most delicious, our reviewers never felt the need to “wash it down” with any other beverages.  Our reviewers described the flavor as “tolerable,” “not too bad,” “earthy,” and “strong.” When surveyed, all reviewers noted that they would definitely purchase the B.LXR for their normal daily routines once their trial period had ended.
