Why not just drink coffee? Or if it really is just about the caffein just take in in pure(rer) form?
When I drink Energy Drinks, I want to feel like I'm Dr.Jekyll turning into Mr.Hyde. Energy drinks should taste like battery acid and hit hard immediately. Coffee is a casual drink imo.
I already drink coffee and love it. Usually 1-2 cups a day. Usually have a redbull or monster once every few days and want permission from my esteemed IST colleagues to continue
Coffee makes me sleepy. All other forms of caffeine make me energized. Any other bros with this problem?
me sometimes. might be mold or immune reaction of some sort. also you need to be carbed up to use caffeine otherwise you get tired and wired shit. caffeine decreases glucose delivery to brain by constricting blood bessels so you beed higher blood sugar to feel ok.
Monster green>Redbull Sugar Free>Monster Zero>Un-Sweetened tea>Diet Soda>Soda>Juice>sweet tea>Red Bull
I would only get a monster green as a special treat though
These are too sweet for me. My gf drinks them and I tried once (it was monster probably or hell I think) and holy frick. How you drink that?
I prefer the small cans of og redbull. Not too sweet and not too much of a good thing. Monsters are a once in a while thing and i agree they’re crazy sweet
All bullshit aside, Caffeine is one of the few no-bullshit supplements that can increase athletic performance for up to 6 hours after being ingested.
That being said, the less sugar the better when it comes to any soft or energy drink. They have started coming out with drinks that are just multi vitamins in a can, so do your own research or do black tea or coffee as a stand in.
4 hours of happiness in a can
For me it’s these homies
>How bad are energy drinks really?
Anecdotally? Drinking 1 (one) daily for 10 years gave me a kidney stone and left my stomach ripped with so many ulcers I have meds for it
> I would like to continue caffeinemaxxing with a clean conscience
pick one
1 or 2 a week surely can’t be too bad right?
I'd expect stomach ulcers in a few years, perhaps not so severe as medication but severe enough to give you heartburn
I’ve been drinking more than that and I’ve been fine. Just make sure you drink enough water
What kind are you drinking?
1 of the monster zeroes per day
I was, I know it's partially luck at the end of the day but I like the warning to be out there
Was it on an empty stomach? Diet/nutritional deficiencies could also play a part in why some get ulcers and other don’t. I agree that people shouldn’t be drinking these every day but they really are godly. This is coming from an energy drink noob. I like normal redbull and the ultra paradise monster personally
>Was it on an empty stomach?
sorta? Drank it with breakfast, sometimes I'd do it 50/50 with OJ sometimes not.
I'm fairly convinced I got the worst end of the luck with it, knowing I've met people who drank 2 a day for 3 years and came out more or less fine. I didn't really ever notice any problems until I quit them tbf, it might have something to do with status quo and all that.
There is literally nothing in an anergy drink that drinking own a day would do that to you. You probably have a crappy lifestyle or diet in some way honestly if you are drinking 365 energy drinks a year
>There is literally nothing in an anergy drink that drinking own a day would do that to you
the caffeine content and high acidity?
>You probably have a crappy lifestyle or diet in some way honestly if you are drinking 365 energy drinks a year
I cook 3 meals a day, keep under 30mL of oil a day, drink 3 glasses of water, and manage my salt intake well enough I was actually low sodium for a month or two last year.
I readily admit it was just shit genetics my lad.
>the caffeine content and high acidity?
Its got 140mg of caffeine. Its not high at all. People drink multiple coffees a day and are fine the acidity is not more than a piece of tart fruit
>People drink multiple coffees a day and are fine
there is 1/4 of the caffeine in an equivalent volume of coffee, you'd have to drink almost 2 L to match that amount
I specified it was a long term exposure of 10 years
don't know what's so hard to understand
A cup of coffee is around 80-100 milligrams of caffeine. Nothing you just said is correct.
what fricking third world country are you living in they sell coffee that strong?
Your perception of how much caffeine is in coffee is radically skewed
You seriously think it takes 2 liters of jffee to get 140mg of caffeine? 100mg is not strong at all.
I guess the corporations selling me coffee are just lying about the amount of caffeine in them
thanks for letting me know I have a lawsuit I guess
Are you actually moronic? If you are no judgement butAny 5th grade level research or googling of "coffee caffeine content" would show what the other anon is saying.

No thanks, I will keep reading the packaging of the actual product I'm consuming and not listen to ~~*google*~~
Post package tard.
I'll post an is coffee bad thread when I buy more next month
Are you drinking decaf thinking it's regular?
they are the elixir of life loaded with vitamins and other goodies not to mention the best tastes of the world
I haven't had one since I quit for Lent. I only drink coke zero and coffee now
I slurp down 2-3 of these a day.
The 10 calorie ones of course.
It's not the calories you should be worried about with those numbers. If you want to avoid dyalisis machines, lower that down to 1 every 2 days or so.
Great. Now I’m gonna fricking die of an overdose, or a stomach ulcer, or a kidney stone, or a heart attack, or a stroke.

Fricking shit frick frick frick FRICK I’m gonna FRICKING DIE
all things in moderation, young grasshopper.
Brb gonna go smoke some crack in moderation
>Brb gonna go smoke some crack in moderation
I had about 3 years I'd do coke every other weekend
my resting heartrate went up ~5bpm when sober at the time, but I was also not cardiopilled
only difference is crack is a bit more potent
But I’ve drank those drinks for like years, I usually have 1-3 cans a day. So approx. 400mg on average, I don’t even get the caffeine effect anymore, it’s more just for taste.
I usually drink monster zero, c4, or ghost.
I probably fricked myself over HARD.
>1-3 cans a day. So approx. 400mg on average, I don’t even get the caffeine effect anymore, it’s more just for taste
yaknow how alcoholics tend to drink beer for the taste not the alcohol?
It's not too late to reduce/quit
Mostly get your liver checked, if you look jaundice-y or start losing hair it could be vitamin induced hepatitis.
Lmao hello anxietyanon drink a 12 pack of beer and settle down
Don't drink soda moron, its not even about whats in the drink, the taste conditions you to seek sugar.
