Energy Drinks: Yes or No?

[Private Paula]

As the title states, are you for or against Energy Drinks?

Personally, I have been drinking them almost daily for at least the past three years, drinking them for at least the past six, and have noticed no effects on my health at all.

Many people hate Energy Drinks due to the amount of sugar, amount of caffeine and other ingredients they include in them. There are other reasons why people hate them, such as the deaths. Now, if you take a look at most reports of people dying from Energy Drinks, it is typically because they mixed it with alcoholic beverages, or drink a large quantity in a small amount of time. Me, personally, can take anywhere from 15 minutes up to a solid five or six hours drinking just the one regular 500ml Can.

There has recently been a "ban" / rule put in place in the UK where majority of supermarkets have now restricted sale of them to under 16s. Personally, whilst I can understand the frustration of high school kids not being able to buy them, I think this is a step in the right direction.

So, what's your thoughts on Energy Drinks? If you drink them, what is your favorite brand / flavor? My favorite brand is and always will be Monster, and my favorite flavor at the moment is Pipeline Punch / The Doctor, can't decide between them.

It tastes awful :fmad:

There are many ways to make coffee. If it's bitter you might be doing it wrong.

Or try different brands. Coffee doesn't all taste the same. Different beans have different flavors. The way it's prepared can also have an effect on the taste, as well as how fresh it is.

I never really liked coffee, than ran into a brand/blend I did like. Drank gallons of it, got used to the taste, and now pretty much all coffee is palatable. Funny how your tastes change. Currently back on unsweetened tea and plain old tap water though. My sedentary lifestyle leaves no room for empty calories in my beverages.

Water. Nothing else comes close.

Water should hire you for their marketing team.

Yep, I drink Lucozade everyday.

Never liked them. Coffee is my source of caffine and I drink it once every blue moon.

Coffee taste like garbage, energy drinks in my opinion taste pretty good, and usually help.

[Fiona the Gamer]

Against energy drink, I used to drink them a lot. It's been 11 years since my last can of red bull. I prefer coffee with cream and no sugar ( okay maybe sometimes with sugar and cream ).

[Rumpelcrutchskin]

No, I dont need this garbage.

[mr.who? WcD]

Yes as long as you dont drink it like its liquid crack, because thats how you die

[Kampeerder]

Yeah, they taste good. Redbull is my favourite even more with jägermeister sometimes, to make Jägerbomb. I don't drink them everyday though.
