all energy drinks are bad, there is no way around it. I had friend who worked at a gas station and drank two monsters a day for like 2 months staright, he then went to the doctor for he was feelin sick lately, the doctor told him that if he kept drinking energy drinks he would die in less then a month, i cant remember what the issue was, maybe something with his liver. but i advise tea, its good for you and has low amounts of caffine that way you dont become immune to it as quickly as you would with coffe or energy drinks. im tellin ya man, for your own health drop the energy drinks.

I'll stick with water personally. I dumped all caffeine and cola's last year. Hell the last "flavored" drink I had was back in October. I feel much better without drinking anything but water.
I know my sister had mentioned they received a message/story/something at the U of U hospital about energy drinks. Your brain becomes dependent on them, meaning you're not going to function as well unless you're drinking one. I'd get off them period, all of you.

My brother is a med student and sometimes sees dead water drinkers in labs.
Cause? Effect?heheh

Yeah, most people who drink water die.
What I meant was that people come in who's hearts are in fibrillation from energy drinks. Usually they have had two within a few hours.
Water definitely helps, but some people have become chemically dependent on caffeine or other outside stuff to stay awake, and it's difficult to kick the habit.
If I drink an energy drink, I prefer Full Throttle. I used to drink 2 a day at CC, and if I did it on an empty stomach I would have a hard time forming logical sentences. Since I'm not a woman, that wasn't working for me so I had to gradually wean myself off of them. It took a few months, but I'm to the point that unless I'm just loopy tired, I won't touch them. I would say I have about 1 per month if that.
I drank 2 of the 24 oz rockstars a few years back when I did a late night marathon drive from Canada to SLC. I probably had them in a 6 hour period, and as we were coming accross idaho at sunup I was freaking. I would twitch like I was falling asleep, but I wasn't falling asleep. I'm also 70% certain that my heart was skipping every other beat. Don't ask me how that is possible, but I swear I had like a 20 bpm heart rate lol.

I know they are bad but I love Rockstar Punched. Doesn't give me any energy but keeps me awake because I can drink 24 oz. and piss out 2 gallons in an hour! As for the seeds Spitz pickle flavor is the best!
