Description

An energizer is not always a battery. It can be anything that gives you more energy or makes you feel more awake and active. It might be a person, an activity, a song, or something you eat or drink. A lively song before a workout can feel like an energizer. So can a funny friend who keeps everyone smiling at a family gathering. A good night's sleep after a long week can be one too, and many people think of caffeine that way as well.
