Energy drinks

I don't drink energy drinks anymore. I find they don't work that well for me, not in a noticeable way at least, and they have too many calories. Not that I drank them a lot before. I've had them while traveling red eye, and a couple of other occasions, but now I don't even use them for that.

The only one that had a prominent effect on me was a Sobe energy drink. It made me kind of more alert and energetic, and also gave me nightmares (yes, I'm sure it was the drink because a) I never get nightmares and b) I tried it again to see and had nightmares again).
 
Absolutely, especially heart problems. I'm sure somebody else on here can give you more information though. :)
 
^ :eek: Three cans is supposed to be the limit! Any more than that, well, actually I'd like to see what happens to that person.

I have a green Monster still sitting in my fridge. I bought it last week as a means to work on my paper but I didn't drink it yet. Maybe tonight.
 
When I have exams coming up, and I want to study all night long, I drink Red Bull..And also in the weekend, when I go out, I mix it with Red Vodka..It's really great!
 
When I was a senior in high school, I brought a different energy drink to school every morning- sometimes 5 cans... and have them all down by 3rd hour. I was OBSESSED. Not so much anymore, but I do like them. haha
 
Is it true that energy drinks can cause health problems for people who drink them alot?
 
I have never tried the Monster energy drinks, but I did drink Red Bull once .... tasted like liquid sweetarts! :lol:
 
Ditto that :nod:



Not at all. Huge amounts of caffine, sugar = bad. Stuff like Lucozade is good, but Red Bull and all that is basically just ***** for your body.
 
I tried the Java Monster today. It's good but doesn't really uplift you. Well...cheaper than Starbucks.

I've been buying Monster drinks almost every other day because of my school papers that I have to deal with :blank:
 
I really like VitaminEnergy. It's from the makers of Glacéau VitaminWater. The Fruit Punch energy one is the best, it's really good. I probably only have it like, once a month, though.

I also like RedBull. I normally mix Red Bull and Sunny Delight together, it's really yummy.

And since I know energy drinks aren't the best, I don't normally have a lot at one time.
 
Red Bull is hella strong. I remember one one time I had to get up in the early hours to catch a plane at the airport, and me and early starts of any kind don't mix. I wasn't too bad when I arrived at the airport, but then I discovered that my flight had been delayed for about four hours or something. After the first hour or so of waiting I was ready to crash out, but was afraid to because I'm paranoid and didn't want to accidentally miss my flight call, so I went to one of the many stores and bought a couple of cans of Red Bull. I drank them both in less than an hour, and within twenty minutes I was buzzing with hyper energy and couldn't sit still for two seconds. I was also babbling random s**t to anyone who was in earshot. I eventually crashed out on the plane and slept the whole way, I had to be prodded awake when we were due to land. :lol:

Since then I've been too afraid to touch the stuff. :lol:
