Absorb Caffeine through the Skin with Sprayable Energy

Hiya! How the heck are you this fine day? Wonderful to see you! Pull up a mug of coffee and snag a virtual treat, why don't'cha, eh? Say, do you ever get caffeine withdrawals? I used to but now not so much. Believe it or not though, there are some people out there (We won't mention any names) who either don't like or cannot take coffee. Well, here's something for those folks.

Sprayable Energy is a patent-pending invention that allows people to get all the energy benefits of caffeine without the coffee aftertaste. The spray is absorbed through the skin and distributed through the body over a period of several hours, giving the user a long-lasting caffeine buzz.

21-year-old Ben Yu and his partner Deven Soni have recently launched a campaign on crowdfunding platform Indiegogo for an innovative product called Sprayable Energy. The small plastic can contains an unscented, colorless formula that gives users that much needed boost of energy without the jitters and sudden caffeine crash.

 ”Coffee didn’t work for me,” Yu said “When I ingest it, it’s like roller coaster ride of energy.” He decided to work on an alternative to the popular beverage in October 2012, while trying to get a degree in biochemistry. He started researching how nicotine patches worked, and like any young inventor, used himself as a test-subject for his experiments. 

His father, who holds a PhD in chemistry, also helped out, and after a lot of hard work, Ben came up with a special formula containing water, a derivative of the amino acid tyrosine, and caffeine that could be sprayed on the skin and offer the same energy buzz of coffee without the nasty taste and side-effects. Now all they need was an extra $15,000 to develop the product line. 

Hey...if they haven't found the extra moolah, here's your chance to get in on the main floor. I suspect it may take a little more than $15,000 but what the heck. Me? Just refill my mug and I'm fine. If I need extra energy, I'll opt for espresso...and maybe a banana muffin with that. Bananas also give you energy.

See ya, eh!
