Do you drink energy drinks?

I've never actually had an energy drink before. I'd rather avoid them and just drink a lot of soda. That's my definite problem. However, the one thing that I have had before was energy gum. That stuff isn't half bad and it does perk me up sometimes. I haven't chewed any in awhile but it's pretty easy to find at stores like Sheetz and if I need a pick me up, I grab a pack of the gum and just chew it. It's easier to use whenever you've got a lot to do and can't get to coffee or other drinks so easily.

hey there. I unfortunately drink a lot of coffee and am trying to cut down. I really cant operate effectively without two cups in the morning, I even get headaches if I dont have it. I do sometimes drink redbull to pick me up if I am especially tired but find it is too sweet for my taste. Even better to mix it with a little vodka. hahaha

I've tried them and they do work! They don't taste as good as coffee or soda (pop) do to me. I think they're overpriced, though and unlike coffee, I can't make my own at home! I drink red bull when I'm drinking jager. My son likes monster. I've read before that kids are drinking more and more of these energy drinks and it's causing heart problems if you drink massive amounts of energy drinks and if you drink them too fast....

No, I've never tasted those drinks. My 21yo son occasionally drinks them - but there has been a lot of publicity lately in Australia about the bad effects these drinks have on young people, with them overdosing on caffeine, etc. They probably have their place, as you mention - but it's not a great idea for people to be swilling them down several times a day!

I only drink coffee when I am really really tired! I don't actually like the flavour of coffee very much to be honest, and my morning drink is usually tea. I prefer the flavour of tea but it doesn't quite have the same kick as coffee does when I need one! I have noticed though that the more coffee I do drink, the more I like the flavour. I suppose it must be an acquired taste.

Hi there and smile. I tried energy drink before and it really made me energetic and strong for the given period. But it was like it is a fake energy, my body system is already tired and it keeps me alive working though. I also experienced fast heart palpitations so i stopped. I just like my coffee for now. Happy mylotting and smile always!

Hello! For the most part I will try and drink the Sugar free ones and ones that are less calories. Red Bull Sugar Free I have drank along with a few other that are made along the same way. There is this one I cant remember what the name is of it maybe it is monster and it comes in a green can and it almost taste like Mountian Dew I like that one but for the whole can its like 240 cals but it works . I think its Amp that sounds right . I usually drink them when I have a big work out or hit that wall . Sometimes it is just what I need as well to give the extra push on the track . So, I might drink like 5 a month I dont see myself ever doing one daily.

Oh I just love those energy drinks! I'm a regular cyclist and so I guess I have come to rely on them now! I love the Mars milk drinks, they have created a version that has lots of energy and vitamins that enable you to continue exercising. These drinks tend to be quite expensive though so I tend to use them sparingly. I used to drink Red Bull but I'm not that keen on the taste of this particular drink. I also remember that drink called Nourishment! Do you remember that one? This is really quite old now and has gone out of fashion I think! Andrew

i gave up milk .and juice.

Oh yeah I do! I drink them to refresh my body, when I am stressed or when I am gonna play outside. And my favorite energy drink is Red Bull! Happy mylotting!

Yeah I do... i actually don't like the taste...they all taste like some cough syrup... but there are just days I feel soooooooo beat up but still i have to get up and work. I had to drink energy drinks.. the 5-hour energy drink does work..lipovitan is a good brand too... i could never get to like the taste..but when i need it so bad,... forget the taste and I drink it/

i drink energy drinks only when i have to stay up in night, for example, i have a test tommorw, and i only drink coffee.....actually my most favorite drink is lemonade....

a year ago, i used to drink red bull but i think its not really good for me because I have felt palpitations and excessive sweating. And right now, i'm just drinking coffee. But my problem with coffee i have experienced tolerance and the rebound effect of it. That's why. beware.

i find energy drinks to be very helpful yes i do

I drink them, but I've actually cut back considerably. NOS is my energy poison of choice but I'll also get Shockwave, Volt or Monster. Red bull of course is a classic and from time to time I'll get one just for the heck of it.

Hello breepeace, The thing is, I dont take this energy drinks. I just dont believe in them. What's more important to me is to get enough rest because without it, no matter how many bottles of energy drinks I consume wont be sufficient. I am not a coffee drinker too. I like hot chocolate though. I can drink it day and nite. Yummy..

I drink energy drinks but t hhink that drinking too much energy drinks is not good for you health.

I dont drink any energy drink because id rather go to exercise.

Even though I know they are not good for you, I am addicted to energy drinks. I love red bull and monster, and have red bull on a daily basis. I cannot get enough of it and it's defiantly my favorite drink!

I drink energy once awhile, usually redbull or monster. To me, they don't really help much when I'm tired, but I still drink them every once awhile like other drinks (pepsi, coke,etc..). Coffee seem to work better for me.
