Energy Drink Question

XJ Eric said:
LOL, trust me I exercise regular. then again I put over 4000 (no thats not a typo) miles on my truck. Once in a while they are helpful. (Hey if you buy them in bulk, I've found monsters as low as $1.25)


Those drinks with low sugar usually have aspartame (or similar) which is worse than sugar. You're better off just eating real sugar.


Yeah I figured that as well. The Monster low carb (for example) does sugar just doesn't have much. The kick is the caffeine.

Eric, your consumption of energy drinks is making you somewhat incoherent......
 
i usually drink a normal monster or go for the rockstars with the juice in them. Ive had XS but wasn't a huge fan of them and you can't just go to the store a buy one.
 
its all about the Red Bull however I tend to drink so many of them that they no longer do anything for me I truly like the taste by itself or with a shot of jager or tuaca (sp). I been known to drink as many as 3 of the triple shots in one night mixing with alcohol lol
 
XS is by far the best tasting energy drink I've ever tried, but that's coming from somebody who doesn't drink energy drinks very often at all. I like them because of the B12 and no sugar/carbs and it's low cal and doesn't have aspertame and has very little caffeine. Definately a much more healthy alternative to soda and for sure a much healthier alternative to other energy drinks. The cost is a bummer though, but it's about the same price as other energy drinks which is another reason I don't go for energy drinks in general. Nutrisoda's another good one :)

used to drink a lot of the red AMP, started feeling chest pains so i cut them out.


redbull has a definate come down if you have more than 1 a day
i dont like 'come downs'... so i save them for the occasional urge.


nobody drinks energy drinks for the value, they taste good =)

... and durrr... being an uber health nut trumps all... but that aint me
 
I drink Rockstars EVERYDAY... Theyre kinda expensive but eff it... theyre soo good... I honestly drink em for the flavor the "energy" is just a plus... If they made Rockstars without the "energy" id still drink em...

Monsters are effin gross... taste like big red soda or that lil kid bubble gum toothpaste.

Energy drinks are a HUGE waste of money. You'll have plenty of energy for anything you need to do if you exercise regularly, eat properly and sleep at least 6 hours a night.

For some of us what you suggest just isn't an option.

I save them as a last resort but there are times when I have been awake for 20 hours and I just need two more to get home where they help get it done.

Monster Lo-carb for me. I don't like all the sugar in most of them...and it doesn't like me.

If a two dollar energy drink replaces one of my meals in a day how am I wasting money? :confused:

Argue the health benefits to eating a balanced diet in lieu of the energy drink all day long, but "HUGE waste of money"?

Food must be CHEAP where you come from!

It's also cheaper than getting fired for sleeping on the Job or dead from falling asleep at the wheel.
