Convenience
When it comes to convenience, 5-Hour Energy has it all over canned energy drinks. While they go bigger and bigger – as much as 32 ounces – 5-Hour Energy is only two ounces. Think about it – you get more energy and have less to drink. That means the energizing ingredients get into your system faster. It also means you don’t have to carry a big can of sugary soda with you.
