do you drink energy drinks? why or why not? if so what is your favorite kind?
i like monster energy drinks, i think they are great and give you a little boost from drinking them i think they are fine to drink one a day more then that and they make me feel funny. i here that they are not very good for you but have no facts to back it up. but over all i feel energy drinks makes this world a better place :)

If you relay on such energy drinks even if you dont need then you will addicted by those drinks. You will always need such drinks even you have to do simple work.
Will you have medicine for eg, Vitamin. These are prefered by doctors if there is absence of energy or less energy in your body. Thats how simple to understand.

I like the green monster energy drink. It taste refreshing and it gives me some buzz. I drink 1 a week, they are good but if you drink too many you will die. I heard if you drink 32 monsters you could die. I'm not sure but thats what I heard from all that sugar overload and other things they put in monster. Still worth drinking just not too much.

I use the "Stumbleupon" toolbar as I like finding new sites online I'd not otherwise have discovered..one site I found featured a dropdown list of the number of caffeinated beverages it would take to kill you...Now,I'm hoping the list was for the number you would drink consecutively,and not cumulatively during your life,(it didn't mention that part!)'cos I'd be getting worried by the amount of tea and coffee I've taken in my life so far,never mind colas and energy drinks!

I like them fine,but on balance I'm quite well caffeinated enough during my working day that I don't feel the need to be using them that often! On Balance,If I'm getting enough sleep and have a bottle of water available,I don't need them that much..Personally,I drink them because I like them,not for any particular energy boost reasons..I'm trying to control my weight by limiting the amount of sugar I take in,and Energy drinks are high on the list of things to avoid in that..

I was reading an article about how sports people use highly caffeinated beverages..drinking caffeine is said to "kick loose" your fatburning metabolism,which is only effective if you are actually taking part in some aerobic sports or exercise at that time..if you're not exercising,all you're getting is a sugar rush and an increased heartrate!

No, I tried before but I palpitated and can’t sleep well. I took because I want to be awake and active but I was feeling tense and sweaty the whole time so since then I never took energy drinks as something that could wake me up. Coffee is just fine.

NO of course, these things are so so bad to your health. I know it feels cool to drink it, but i'd rather drink Normal Water or even Soda than I drink these carcinogens drinks!!!!!

honestly i dont really like the monster energy drinks. im more into the rockstar and i like red bull. i dont buy them a lot because they are expensive and i dont really need them because i can get energy from something else. but sometimes i do treat myself to one.
