Hi,

You should be very careful what crap you consume, energy drinks contain substances that could affect your liver, specially if you take alcohol.

One of the ingredients of most of them is Caffeine.

Now, if you want to prolong the effect of Viagra or Cialis, you could end up with a serious condition called Priapism.

So, be careful.

If you are having problems with low energy or tiredness, consult your doctor. It could indicate an underlying issue that needs to be addressed.

Or you could eat right, exercise and get a good nights sleep.




Nah... Pass the Red Bull


I tried one of the monster drinks or something once after a two day shift to help me stay awake on the four hour drive home. Bleh, I didn't like the taste. And to be honest, I don't feel the caffine buzz or any effect from caffine from any source. I mean I am sure that it has an effect on me, I just don't notice it or crave it like alot of folks.

I like the taste of Red Bull. The caffeine has absolutely no effect on me so either. I could drink a six pack right now and still go to sleep in an hour (although I probably won't stay there with all that liquid in me).

I don't know what it's called but GNC has one my girlfriend seems to be hooked on. It wires her so tight she bounces around for about 5 hours. She crashes hard afterward of course. It's also a dietary thing though, messes with metabolism.

Vodka and Red Bull

[disturbed1]

Centrum One A Day, plus a cup of coffee, and I'm good to go.

Anything with ephedrine, or an ephedrine type additive, has serious effects on me. I've gone to the hospital 8 times because of it. Would of been easier to figure out what was causing the problem if ephedrine wasn't in so many products.

Jack Daniels

[Cunhambebe]

Half glass of water + 1 tablespoon of Guaraná powder.

[RustyBob]

Rip It, is the new drink in town. I favor lemon-lime or citrus. Both very tastey, and very potent. I didn't sleep well for three days. The sugar free ones make me gag.

A tall Irish Carbomb or two always gets me in the mood for anything.

what about if you are over 250 pounds.... dont you need extra things to help stuff go thru your system????

[zzyzzx]

I agree with Cobra, but would add that these so called energy drinks are a silly waste of money.

First of all, check with a doctor, this will help you double check if you can start doing exercise and avoid the possibility of heart problems.

Start eating healthy food (no McDonalds or Burger King). Add some fiber to your diet, including yogurt, this helps the intestines.

Do you have virility problems? vitamin C, E and Zinc, but be careful with vitamin C, because over 500 mgs can cause diarrhea

Replace coffee with tea; sweeten with a cup of honey.

About exercise: There is no need to lifts weights; push ups a abdominals could help you.

Gonna have to disagree with this comment. Why waste time on pushups and ab exercises? Get gym membership and hit the weights hard. You'll end up feeling much better...endorphins kick ass!!

Push-ups are a waste. Get a proper routine. Ab workouts are retarded because people think they can spot reduce. Won't happen. Abs get worked in a proper routine.

Edorphins...!!

As for ephedra, used properly in the right amounts can have great effects on the body. People have to learn to use it properly.

Edorphins...!!

I am trying to keep hormones and drugs out of the picture.

[beavereater]

I meant Endorphins...

Beta-endorphin is released into the blood (from the pituitary gland) and into the spinal cord and brain from hypothalamic neurons.

These feel good after an intense workout
