c3* review & spa finder giveaway.

It seems like everywhere you turn these days, people are looking for ways to manage and relieve stress.

Taking a walk.
Listening to music.
Breathing techniques.
Journaling.
Talking to a friend.

Those are definitely some of my favorite ways to relieve stress. That’s why at first I wasn’t sure what I’d think about C3* For Stress when I was offered to try a sample.

C3* For Stress is an all-natural drink mix of botanicals, vitamins and minerals that helps relieve the symptoms of stress and connects you to your natural energy. C3*’s proprietary formula combines centuries-old healing traditions with modern science. The result promotes a healthy response to stress.

The drink is all-natural, stimulant and sedative free, sugar free, and contains 100 percent of the RDA of Vitamins B6, B12, Zinc, and Niacin (learn more about C3* on their website and Facebook page).

Like I said – I wasn’t sure what I’d think about C3* because I don’t usually take supplements or even drink energy drinks for that matter. But after learning those things about C3*, I thought it was worth giving a try.

The verdict? Well first of all, it tastes pretty good! The lemon-lime flavor was a nice change from my regular (boring) ice water.

As far as whether or not it relieved stress, I can’t give an entirely conclusive answer. I can say that I drank it around 2pm during a rather busy day of work, and I did get through the remainder of the afternoon feeling pretty great. I can’t say for sure if that’s because of the stress-relieving effects of C3* – but considering I liked the taste, there were definitely no ill effects, and it’s a drink that contains healthy vitamins and minerals – I’m going to say that I am a fan of C3* and would drink it again!
