It’s not the guy who has 1 can of Rockstar, it’s the IDIOT? who drinks 6 in a day!
It’s not the guy who has 1 shot of Jack Daniels who causes a wreck, it’s the IDIOT who drinks 12 shots!
It’s not an ENERGY DRINK or an ALCOHOL problem!
IT’S AN —>IDIOT<— PROBLEM!

what a skewed representation of energy drinks. If you choose to criticize, offer a better study. First off: cheese cake doesn’t contain a ton of sugar relative to most deserts. Just ton’s of fat. Also point out that the average 16oz energy drink contains as much caffeine as 2 cups of coffee. Just an absolutely terrible representation. Clearly not very scientific. I’m not in support of energy drink use, but I’m in support of credible scientific studies. Weak…..

Is there ANYTHING thats good for you? Seriously, look up anything online and there has been a study done that will say its bad for you. Tomatoes, Milk, Lettuce, Carrots. I garauntee you there has been some study saying they are bad for you too. Walk down a city street and take a nice deep breath. How are those bus fumes treating you? People need to relax and just live. Ive had cancer and I was very in shape, never drank alcohol or did drugs. Live your life

I wish they would mention caffeine tolerance and how well people utilize the energy drinks with high demands at work places. I’m a college student with 18 hours of classes 6hrs a week of studying and 40hr work week on top of errands and chores. Two energy drinks a day here, =210 ml caffeine and other supplements included. I have developed a tolerance that digests these drinks smoothly over a few hours and no shakes or crashes, unless I am sitting somewhere doing nothing…no time for that.

When we focus on non-threataning issues such as these, we forget about the real important issues such as underage drinking, war, and the economy. the media are idiots..

Regulating the amount of caffeine in one can of soda doesn’t do anything, especially when many people suck down several every day…haha! Caffeine is a hard core drug that should be banned. Of course corporations/employers are all for caffeine because it causes their slaves to work harder and for longer periods of time. It’s sick! People need rest. We are NOT robots! How about a good old fashioned quality 8 hour sleep?
