Are energy drinks really not good for you?

caffeine in moderation is fine , but drinking a Monster every day is pushing it! Ever heard of the military guy that took 6 scoops of JACK3D then went an did training an his heart exploded.

He wasn't getting the buzz so he took 6 scoops of JACK3D & died while training.

In the lawsuit filed by his parents , the judge said " there's no proof that JACK3D was the main cause of his death & how do i know if he wasn't taking something else. The lawsuit was dismissed.

Not at all. Too much of that shit can actually kill you. The amount of caffeine in there dangerously increases your heartrate, which can lead to heart conditions.

Of course they're not. They're as bad for you as hard drugs. The amount of caffeine in them can give you heart problems as well as other health conditions. Basically if you want your heart to get messed up, continue to drink them. My ex boyfriend nearly died drinking them often.

Think about the amount of caffine and sugar going into that one drink give you such a "energy boost"... a hella lot!!! They are okay sometimes but defs not daily

[aficionado]

Considering the amount of caffeine they contain, I don't see how they can be good! And they don't provide 'energy' either, it's just a marketing gimmick.

A stupid friend of mine had 13 red bulls over the course of 4 hours... he was admitted to hospital.
After that, I've never touched one again (not that I had them to begin with). They're just full of shitty stuff that shouldn't be in your body.

They're ok everyone in a blue moon but when you'd drink them all the time they will adversely affect your body. I mean people my age have had heat attacks because of them. Because their hearts can't take all the stuff it pumps into them.

They're probably not so good but I find them helpful and beats being lazy all day. In Japan they have much stronger ones with nicotine in them that I like.

I don't know, but i prefer not to drink because it didn't help me at all

They are notoriously full of sugar, so of course they're bad for you.

What a stupid question.

They are loaded with caffeine and sugar.

I wouldn't go anywhere near them.

[shiller]

They are amazingly bad for you.

[Anonymous]

No. Just a bunch of processed sugar.
