t have extensive experience in both juice (since I964) and carbonated beverages
(since 1980). I am familiar with the ingredients ofand the advertisements for Vital
Pharmaceutical' s "RIDLINE Power Rush! 7-Hour Energy Boost'"
I
10
11
3.
REDLINE Power Rushl 7-Hour energy Boost conspicuously makes these claims
on the cunent labels on its drink containers:
12 13
. . . 4.
"No crash" "Zero Sugar/Zero Carbs" "Vitamins & Amino Acids"
14
15 Based on Vital Pharmaceutical's labels and based on the drink's ingredients and the
16 17 18 19
generally accepted principles of biochemistry, pharmacology, and physiology, in my expef
opinion, the product's very name, "7-Hour Energy Boost", is a literally false claim about this
product, as it necessarily states or at least implies that the product produces seven hours ofenergy.
5.
As I explain below, this product does not, and cannot, produce energy, a defined
20
21
scientific term, for the period of time that Vital Pharmaceutical claims, in any measurable amount
(if its products produce
energy at all) and certainly not seven hours of energy. As I explain below,
,t
23
energy is a measurable physical fact.
6.
In addition, for the same reasons, Vital Pharmaceutical' claims-specifically, "7
24
25
Hours of Pure Energy" and'No crash"-are literally false statements about REDLINE Power Rush! 7-Hour energy Boost. Let me explain why.
26
J-7
7.
as
By way of introduction, I should explain that "energy" is a scientific term and is
defined in all physics textbooks and all biochemistry textbooks as well as in online resources such
28
Wikipedia. This is a portion of Wikipedia's discussion: "Energy is often defined
as the
ability

to do work.. .. In biology, chemical bonds are broken and made during metabolic processes, and
the associated changes in available energy are studied in the subfìeld of bioenergetics. Energy is often stored by cells in the form of substances such as carbohydrate molecules (including sugars)
and lipids, which release energy when reacted with oxygen."
(http ://en.wikipedia.ore/wiki/Energy.)
., 3

There is a direct relationship between calories and energy. "Throughout the history
of science, energy has been expressed in several different units such as ergs and calories. At
present, the accepted unit of measurement for energy is the SI [Intemational System of Units] unit
I
9
ofenergy, thejoule." (http://en.wikipedia.ore/wiki/Enersy.) Food energy, however, is often
stated in calories, and the conversion from joules to energy calories is a simple mathematical
10
11
exercise: onejoule is equal to 0.239 energy calories. [The scientifrc term Kilocalorie, 1000
energy calories, is equivalent to the term used by food nutritionists, "Calorie," often used with a
12 13
capital "C" to avoid confusion.l
14
15
9.
A human being requires a certain number of calories of energy every day, even
without exercise, simply to exist. These calories of energy are required to maintain what is known
as "basal metabolic
16 17
1B
rate" (BMR) in any man or woman, and an average BMR rate is about 1266
Kcal or food Calories per day. This is the basic requirement even if that pe(son was at rest all day.
This daily requirement, or BMR rate, breaks down to about 53 Kcalo¡ies per hour or 0.879 Kcalories per minute. Of course, a moderate amount of exercise per minute, hour, day, or week
increases the basic requirement dramatically.
19
20
21
10.
Mental energy or brain metabolism is defined scientifically as the degree or level of
'r)
23 24
25
glucose metabolism in the brain. It can be followed carefully by imaging techniques in huma¡s and is easily quantified. The brain uses glucose as a source of energy and
will
starve the rest
of
the body's stores ofglucose ifneeded to supply the brain. In times of severe starvation, the brain
may use free fatty acids to survive but this is usually near death.
1 1
26
.,1
.
Mental energy can be thought of as cognitive ability or the ability to reason or
intelligence quotient. Reason, cognition and integration, however, all require glucose as the
energy source. Brain neurons cannot fire without glucose as they also require calories in the form
28
Case 3:08-cv-01545-WQH-BLM

of glucose to function.
't
3
12.
Without glucose to deliver to the brain, one can die. The brain needs many calories
per minute, per hour, per day, consuming 20% of total calories available to the human body.
It
is
4
5
the second most calorie dependent organ in the human body; the liver is first because of its size.
In fact, there is no type of human energy that does not require consumption and buming of calories. The only energy-yielding nutrients are proteins, carbohydrates, alcohol, and fats.
6
7
13.
There are no calories in vitamins. As a result, vitamins ca¡not be energy-yielding
I I
10
11
nutrients. Vitamins can aid energy production as co-factors of energy producing cellular
reactions, but alone they provide no calories. In other words, they carurot be broken down for
energy. Similarly, for all practical purposes, amino acids contain no caloric energy' Again, only
fats, carbohydrates, alcohol, and proteins contain calories. Single amino acids do not contribute to
a human's energy requirement
12
13
in calories. However the single amino acid Taurine does function
to stabilize and "strengthen" the cardiac muscle cell and support cardiac cell performance. This role is unique to Taurine.

In my expert opinion, Vital Pharmaceutical's claims in this advertisement that
REDLINE Power Rush! 7-Hou¡ Energy Boost provides "seven hours of sustained energy" or "that it will leave you amped to the max in minutes" or "no crash" are false based on the drink's
ingredients, the concentration of those ingredients, and generally accepted principles of biochemistry, pharmacology, and physiology.
