Vitamin tablets to relieve fatigue

20 Comments

Eisai is selling a new brand of fatigue-relieving vitamin tablets. The Chokora BB Royal T falls under the category of non-prescription drugs. Chokora had been available as a bottled energy drink, but the tablet version was created to take on a daily basis for overcoming fatigue.

Suggested retail price is 1,381 yen (56 tablets).

Methamphetamines, perhaps? Even sugar will give you a short-time pickup. But if the fatigue has some organic (or psychological) cause, a Kit-Kat bar will probably be just as effective.

Eat properly, stay positive, rest, and exercise and vitamins are not required. People need to do their own research and not think the word "vitamin" means "better life."

Chocola BB tablets ain't new. It sounds like they've just added some royal jelly to these ones.

I'm definitely gonna pick up some of these pills!

Hmmm, I guess they're tired because they work overtime??? I heard this stuff is good for the skin too. I buy their drink from time to time.

Japan selling a product to relieve fatigue? Really? How will I know this one from the dozens of other ones that do the exact same thing? From the pink label?

Unfortunately Japan's Finance Minister Fujii who resigned due to fatigue was not aware of these tablets (?)!

Anything here is soaked twice in caffeine and nicotine. I recommend staying away from the domestic stuff unless you want to pick up an addiction.

Stirfry, Cubicles? No, they all sit at the same huge table facing each other, computer or not. No privacy. I've never seen a cubicle in a Japanese company. That way no one can fall asleep without others noticing, therefore the products to relieve fatigue.
