At first i thought it was another episode of "we are going to trick Link with a miraculous product" so he acts like he's buzzed, like with the anti-spicy food pills
What they are really feeling here is the placebo effect. I looked into what this actually contains and it only contains small amounts of nootropics and some of them like GABA don't even cross the blood brain barrier. It also contains Theanine (found in chocolate) and 5-HTP. Neither are psychoactive or at all noticable over a short time on this scale. I was wondering if this at least contained phenibut, which would have a real effect similar to alcohol and benzos, but it is also physically addictive.
@@lilyjune69 I haven't looked it up but I was figuring it's mostly their expectations that make them behave this way. Probably a bit of the drink too, but mainly the placebo effect and just peer pressure.
They need to do this again, but without telling them that it’s supposed to give you a buzz. I don’t know anything about the science but I feel like placebo is part of it
You’re correct things like this would have to be what’s called a single blind experiment where the participants are unaware of the effect or what the experiment is
WARNING!! This drink has 5-HTP which is often used an antidepressant but you should never consume large amounts of 5-HTP if you are on an SSRI (zoloft, prozac, lexapro, etc) it can cause serotonin syndrome. Hence why Link may have felt wired instead of relaxed.
Chase: Just laughing Stevie: Slowly becomes an overlord Rhett: His comments he keeps in his head he has no problem sharing now Link: It did not work for him but he just went along with it until it did
Link was too anxious for it to sort maybe. He was paying too much attention to his body and wasn't letting the affect hit him, but that's Mt guess because I would do thr same
The way they keep grinning while asking each other how they're feeling makes me feel like I'm watching them take mushrooms🤣🤣 not to mention Link making Stevie anxious by breathing weird
That’s kind of how it works for a lot of people, they don’t realize they’re in a cult, they just get roped in. And yes, Link would be one of those people who is susceptible to that… I agree
@@heliveruscalion9124 You are correct, that is extremely possible. I believe he's on an SSRI for anxiety -- you're not supposed to take 5-HTP with an SSRI. That one's a BIG no-no interaction, actually. That Link was only tense (and nauseated, which he blamed on the pickle juice) was lucky!
Link is the one friend we all have when tripping who wants to try to normalize everything 😂 Rhetts the friend who says “dude let’s invent a new word” 🤣
The reason why it may not be working for link is because he takes anti depressants if I do recall. And the ingredients that are in sun-chasers to make them mimic the buzz of alcohol are all natural forms of stress relievers that don’t work as well compared to antidepressants
If Link is taking antidepressants, he should not be drinking these. Sun Chaser contains 5-HTP, which can have dangerous interactions with antidepressants and other medications. I hope he doesn't feel any ill effects after this.
I know right? I genuinely felt bad for him; he looked like he was going to faint right after he said it too. I definitely think it could have been a reaction with his meds. Nonetheless, everything else about the episode was fun.
Yeah, he had the face of someone trying to play an anxiety attack as fine. The lip roll, the tight hold he has on his legs. Rhett knew something was up.
@@mythicalsalmon3621 because he plays a role as he has explained on Ear Biscuits. His kids were embarrassed for him and wondered why he acts differently from the guy they know... they'll need therapy later ( like all of us)
Seems legit when they say don’t have more than 2 but then their website says: “You may need a few Sun Chasers before you feel the same buzz that only requires one for another person.” And also says: “Sun Chaser's buzz will peak at the feeling of a single serving of alcohol. The buzz will not build on itself after 2 servings, making it a fully manageable experience.”
I looove Stevie😍 she holds her self so gracefully and she’s so well spoken. Even in awkward moments she still knows what to say and her body language is never nervous. I asked my husband the other day if I was graceful and he said no. Lol I strive to be like Stevie😂
@@stigma2182 because there's been countless peer reviewed studies concluded that surround the power of the placebo effect. He knows that because there entire scientific communities dedicating their work to this, it's not something made up.
@@stigma2182 Because the drink only really contains GABA, 5-HTP and L-Theanine. They are amino acids and neuro transmitters, which access serotonin and melatonin in some way, but the "buzz" is a fair bit of placebo. L-theanine will give you the tingles a good pre-workout also gives, but this drink will in no way give you an alcohol like buzz. It's basically just a tiny bit more serotonin and some tingles.
GABA isn't placebo effect; I offered GABA powder to multiple people without telling them what to expect and they all independently reported tingling sensations.
I think its a terpene drink, which you can naturally get with fruits and veggies. But the website is giving my bad MLM vibes. it was difficult to find the ingredients and they were over shadowed by so many "health claims" ... Huge red flag.
while i would be inclined to agree with you, usually terpenes are in everything and they have very little effect unless you mix them with other compounds, usually slightly paychoactive like caffeine or cannabis for a boost. plus they wouldn’t feel the tingly effect with just terpenes. on the website it says it has 5-HTP and GABA
@@sweetgirl070707 I'm just being informative. I had no inclination to look into this drink at all but when I saw the comment I went to look myself because I don't think it's right when companies hide ingredients, but that's not the case here.
"I feel like taking a nap..." Maybe because they just took two servings of GABA, L-Theanine, and 5-HTP! LOL! This isn't a buzz drink! It's a sleep drink! Those compounds just so happen to bring on a slight euphoria before slamming your face into the pillow! Haha!
“Will it Ice Cream Cone?” Not about making things into ice cream, merely about if you can eat it. Just imagined Link looking disgusted as Rhett goes ham on a scoop of Refried Beans.
GABA, L-Theanine and 5-HTP should do something like they felt, but the Tryptophan derivative 5-HTP could be problematic or even sleep-inducing for some
@@elias6570 yeah i was looking it up after watching this video and it doesn’t seem like it would do much. hoping to buy some soon and see if it does anything or if it even tastes good.
They should do a “what’s the best type of fry?”. Shoestring, steak fry, curly fry, sweet potato fry if they’re feeling brave, wedge fry, and home style!
If you look up the ingredients then you will understand the “buzz” … it contains popular ingredients usually found in energy drinks, over the counter anti depressants, or as individual supplements… GABA, Ltheanine, and HTP5 are the primary ingredients in this drink offering the buzz.
I’m also intrigued by how it describes EXACTLY what you will feel. I bet there is a fair bit of placebo mixed in with some small amount of legitimate effects

I’m 4 minutes in and I still think it’s a prank.

I would love to see an episode of the crew on mushrooms 😭
I definitely think Link would be most likely to join a cult, but he wouldn't realize it was a cult. He'd join a cult by accident.

He'd realize it's a cult after about two weeks, and he'd be like, "Oh no."
Rhett thinks he'd lead a cult but he'd follow and I think Link could lead one by accident
Stevie's laugh is so intoxicating. She should be at every party.

Maybe they say don't drink more than 2, to warn you of the disappointment that will ensue when the effects don't get stronger.
Ok can we talk about how Stevie is absolutely serving??? She looks so good
I can definitely see Rhett leading a cult called “SUNCHASERS”
"I really don't wanna do anything."

I love how relaxed this episode is. The couch bit was great, easy going.
I feel Link is one of those people that if you tell them what they should feel will make them feel it whether they do or not.
