I've found I can only take it when I do a morning workout for this very reason. You could try taking a smaller serving for your later in the day workouts. Let me know if that helps.

LOL, same thing happens to me, so I use it only for my morning workouts and races. I was up until almost 3am the other day, and all I had was one scoop at 6pm. I had a good workout, though :)

I have found the same thing myself with taking it before evening workouts and last night with hockey. I was thinking I would switch out my normal morning green tea for some Vega sport after seeing the same thing. I already have a Vega smoothie and hemp hearts for breakfast in the morning though. Hs anybody had any issues with having the two together or one shortly after the other?

What's in this wonderful product that keeps me (and it sounds like several others) awake more than I'd like?

Jennifer, I'd say its the caffeine :) And of course, just being pumped from having an awesome workout!

I think it is like caffeine but not, its a healthy alternative to it. I spoke to my health food specialist again today about this yummy product she says that for those of us sensitive to stimulates like caffeine it is better to start off with a half or third portion and always take this before noon until we know how we are going to react to this product. So there we have it, go slow until we know! I took a half serving this morning before my swim and still had lots of energy boost from this amount, then I did a follow up with a Vega Berry bar and I felt awesome, full and still lots of energy. Gotta buy the big containers of these wonderful products and just starting the whole food Optimizer, I was told it will help speed up recovery after a workout, so I am looking fwd to see after my next swim how this works out.
thanks all for commenting on this thread, I am learning lots here.
smiles and hugs to all!
Jaz

So I am going to be training for my first Duathalon and really want to try the Vega sport not those other chemical recovery/pre workout drinks for the gnc. I am a Diabetic is anyone out there using the vega sport Diabetic and is it working ok for you?

Thanks for letting me know it keeps you up I will have to move my workouts to closer in the morning.

Taking Vega Sport as a diabetic depends on activity level. Just like any source of carbohydrate, diabetics will need to account for their intake of Vega Sport by taking the appropriate amount of insulin. Brendan recommends that Vega Sport only be taken by diabetics who are involved in physical activity.
