energy drinks?

I personally can't stand the taste of energy drinks, for me I prefer coffee but I've been drinking it since i was 6 or 7 so it takes a pot or two to actually affect me. I can drink almost a pot in an hour and go to bed soon after. #Beer

It doesn't give me energy, but it tastes so damn good. I'm addicted to them for the taste.

I only drink redbull sugarfree when i go to the arcade, it does gives me a boost in concentration and reaction time, the only scary part is the 250% vitamin B6, ima write those guys at redbull and tell em to bring it down to 100%

i've read its not so healthy to overdose in vitamins

Why did they have to name it bawls? Now i'm trying to stop myself from making comments about Kerrigan having bawls in her mouth, lol.

I havent drank many of them, but I sell a lot. I find they work, as I use them when I"m driving to keep me awake. Red Bull isnt my fav, i enjoy the Sobe Rush drinks more though.

Oh, and I'm in the same boat as Ichigo when it comes to coffee. Been drinkin it since i was a kid, so now I can drink it whenever, and have no problem sleeping right after.

And Roofcutter, how could you refer to cream/sugar as a hassle? you lazy lazy man, lol.

energy drinks are soo bad for you. they speed up your heart rate and what not. its like an EXTREMELY mild form of ephedra

my friend was like addicted to energy drinks then one day he drank one and next thing you know he was throwing up for the next 3 days....

if u really need energy that badly, id suggest openin up ONE can of coke or something with caffein and taking ONE sip when your tired. the difference between one sip and the whole thing is nothing so u might as well keep ur drink as long as u can. The initial caffein rush is what u need...

the key is a sip at a time, not drinking the whole thing

I don't know, but I don't think a sip of coke is going to do it for most people. Although I agree that energy drinks aren't good for you.

I say just eat the right food and get the right amount of sleep, and you should have plenty of energy. Or just do whatever works for you.

Contrary to peoples suspicions about energy drinks are worse than coffee is literally kidding themselves. I drink coffee (iced), and soda, but in small doses. Having as much of these is just as likely to get a kidney stone if you don't drink enough water.

Yet again energy drinks are made from caffiene which will contain 70mg more caffiene than the regular dose of coffee, or Coke. The reality is every liquid every food we put in our system is harmful either way you look at it.

Energy drinks aren't used to be abused or to be drinked like water downing 4 cans. Unfortunately people do abuse this and end up getting a heart attack for overdossing on a certain chemical already produced in the body. I'm sure pretty soon energy drinks will be sold to people over the age of 18. Go figure.
