Her Energy Drink

Frequently Asked Questions

1. QUESTION:
   Is it safe for my little sister and her friend to drink energy drinks?
   Well, my sister and her friend always bother
   me to run them to the store so they can buy a
   variety of little energy drinks. They buy stuff like
   red bull, monster, rockstar, vault, sobe, etc.
   They're 16oz bottles.

   I told her that I wouldn't do it anymore because
   I don't think it's good for their heart and since
   they're young (12&13).

   They claim they drink 2 bottles a day but I still
   don't trust them or even think that's safe.

   What i'm asking is if it's safe for them to drink it
   or what do you think their limit is and what
   are the side effects?

   my little sister is a tiny girl and
   her friend is overweight.

   • ANSWER:
     Energy drinks are full of sugar, caffeine, and B12. B12 is not dangerous, but the caffeine and sugar are. Even diet versions are full of caffeine, which can be very damaging. Caffeine is an appetite stimulant and a diuretic, forcing water from the body and causing many people to eat more out of an artificial sense of hunger. Most of those drinks are also carbonated and the phosphoric acid present depleats bones of calcium, which is especially dangerous for teenagers, who should up their calcium intake to build stronger bones during adolescence. And 16oz is way too much, for even an adult it's ridiculous. No one needs these things, but even for those just wanting a boost, one 6-8oz serving is more than enough.

     They'd probably feel just as good (though not as cool) adding a good multivitamin to their diets. Maybe offer to buy them some other type of fancy drinks instead (juices like odwalla, naked, or some of the kerns nectars, even tea blends from sobe, snapple, hansens and POM are safer than the energy drinks, though they are still high in sugar). When I was younger, I felt really special when I was treated to a "cocktail" at my neighbors' house. The cocktails were always some sort of juice (usually orange, cranberry, or tropical guava or pineapple), mixed with a splash of 7up or hansen's soda, and occasionally featuring a drizzle of grenadine or other fruit syrup. These were always served in small, fancy glasses (6-8oz), over ice. As an older teenager, I tended towards juice mixes and gatorade (still sugary, but no caffeine).

     If you offer options, and explain why the energy drinks are so bad for her age group, maybe she'll change her habits. Good Luck! ^_^

2. QUESTION:
   My girlfriend put 4 cans of NOS energy drink in her car...should it be flushed out?
   She is stalled a light. Im on my way to help her but i don't know what to do.

   • ANSWER:
     Leave her there and get a new girlfriend who has half a brain.

3. QUESTION:
   She doesn't eat and all she drinks is sugar free energy drinks. What will this do to her body?
   I know she has an eating disorder and that I can't help her, but I still want to know what is going on with her. I always see her drinking those energy drinks that have caffeine and taurine. I guess the reason is that she has no real energy anymore because she won't eat.

   • ANSWER:
     Diabes most likely, not to mention electrolyte deficiencies (hypokalemia, etc.). Her adrenals will also start to suffer. Not to mention the horrid effect from not eating.

     She needs to see a specialist who can treat the eating disorder, and needs to have blood tests done to check for imbalances.

4. QUESTION:
   my friends daughter has had an energy drink... her pupils are huge and shes falling all over?
   i seen my friend this morning and went back to her house for a cuppa.... her daughter is around the same age as mine, shes about 2months older so shes 20months... her pupils are huge, shes falling all over and wont eat, i asked my friend whats wrong and she said shes been like that since she had a full powerade energy drink yesterday... it says on the bottle do not give to children under 3years.
   my friend finds it amusing the way her daughter is acting.... is it dangerous?

   • ANSWER:
     I do not think it's dangerous at all. The poor thing is having a sugar load and that's pretty much it. Once it were's off the baby will be back to normal

5. QUESTION:
   My Friend Lets Her Nine Year Old Son Drink Energy Drinks Like Rockstars, Monsters, & Red Bull, Is This Safe?

   • ANSWER:
     I am a teacher who goes into schools and teaches a nutrition program. We ALWAYS tell the kids to NEVER drink energy drinks. They are very unhealthy and children die from overdosing on them all the time. We tell stories of children who died of a heart attack after drinking 2 or 3 in a short amount of time. If she values the life of her child i would highly suggest not giving him energy drinks.

6. QUESTION:
   Is Kermanzo's girlfriend trying to poison him with her new energy drink? Who thinks Yes?
   Who thinks No?

   • ANSWER:
     I think its dog pee

7. QUESTION:
   What would happen if a dog drank a small amount of an energy drink?
   I'm at a friends house and we were in her backyard and my rockstar energy drink fell over and spilled. Her dog (half beagle half brittany spaniel) lapped up about 1-2 ounces or so (its hard to estimate that but that's my best guess) as we got something to wipe it up with. Now we're worried about whether anything will happen to the dog.

   Thanks!

   • ANSWER:
     I don't think I've heard of energy drinks being bad for dogs?

     I think the dog will be just fine. Dogs ingest much, much worse things, trust me!

8. QUESTION:
   what happens if you drink two energy drinks on a empty stomach?
   my friend hasnt eaten since last night and she is on her second energy and i wanna know what and how she will feel. i dont think its a good idea.

   • ANSWER:
     Listen, she could get in big trouble if she abuses those things. Energy drinks have a high caffeine content. over 200 mg of caffeine a day is considered caffiene overdose, which can lead to seizures, strokes, muscle spasms, hallucinations, racing heart palpitations, and worse. Google caffeine overdose. It's not good and you should tell her to be careful and her parents if they are unaware.

9. QUESTION:
   Do You Allow Your Kids To Drink Energy Drinks?
   I admit that I don't know much about them and have never used one - drinks like Red Bull, MONSTER...

   My daughter (7th grader) tells me that "lots of people in her class drink them"

   Is this stuff good for kids?

   • ANSWER:
     No. Absolutely not. I have a teenager going through puberty and she has severe ADD. An energy drink? If I want to ruin my day and everyone elses that comes into contact with her- then I guess. But no. She does have energy drinks when she stays over at friends houses. I really don't understand why parents are cool with loading kids up on energy drinks during sleepovers but whatever. It's their night down the drain, not mine.

11. QUESTION:
    Is ROCKST★R Roasted sold in England? (Rockstar Energy Drink, particularly the Mocha flavour)?
    A friend of mine is traveling to the UK soon and she's addicted to ROCKST★R Roasted energy drink.
    I know that ROCKST★R is available in the UK, but I don't know if it's very prominent or if they have the newer flavours.

    If anyone over there can confirm, she'd be grateful. Otherwise, I expect her to be packing an extra suitcase full of this, her favorite drink.

    Thanks!

13. QUESTION:
    What can happen if you take a night-time cold medicine about an hour after having an energy drink?
    Before I get yelled at by people (lol), I didnt take them together, my friend did. She called me and asked b/c her computer is broken and she cant look it up. She said she just took cold medicine (PM) and forgot she had just finished an energy drink less than an hour earlier. So are there any bad side effects so I can let her know? Thanks.

    • ANSWER:
      no life threatening side effects. people take heroin and cocaine together, which are on the opposite side of the spectrum for years, until they die, but a one time thing doesnt have many consequences.

21. QUESTION:
    energy drink?!?!?!?
    My girls and i are going out this weekend for my homegirls b-day. According to the comments from my last question, my homegirl cant really drink because of the meds that she is on and i really want her to have a good time....what will get her energy up so that she can enjoy herself? I though about red bull or amp....but i dont really know if that will get her right....

    • ANSWER:
      You shouldn't give her an energy drink. Sure, it will hyper you guys up for a while, but after a bit you all will have an intense crash. That would just ruin the birthday party for all of you guys.

      Stick with soda or head to a local coffee shop and get a drink with coffee in it.

    She was not feeling like herself this last weekend. at first she was eating and but then she puking and when she is not eating and only drinking water. She puke that water out too in form like saliva (lots of it). I took her to the vet and the vet said she has throat infection and maybe stomach bug. he gave her a shot and medications for it for couple days and if she is not feeling well she has to go back in couple days. IT only been yesterday and she already took the medicine (doxycyline) 3 times. As soon as she took it she drink lots of water and then puking that too (salivating). However, this time she doesn't want to drink anymore and she doesn't have energy to move around because she doesn't want to eat. I tried everything the doctor say by keeping her hydrated and feed her but she wouldn't eat or drink it, everything coming right back out. What is wrong with her?

      Take her back to the vet, have them run some tests. It could be anything but don't waste time, a dog not wanting to eat and vomiting is not a good thing.

25. QUESTION:
    Pains after energy drink?
    My friend has recently got me drinking an energy drink named Monster. In the past few days it would be fair to say I have had a considerable amount of it including the one 500ml can I drank tonight. I have just experienced some horrible shooting pains in the lower left side of my stomach and I am wondering if the engergy drink could be responsible for these pains in any way. Please help
    My friend tells me that energy drinks make her insides hurt to ;(

      They are loaded with so much acids and citric acid they make soda look like a good! I used to drink monster everyday and had horrible stomach problems, the acid is eating your stomach AND your teeth even more! Cut back, if its for energy take 5 hour energy or B vitamins, if its for taste its not gonna kill u to have one once in a while, but not every day.

26. QUESTION:
    What makes an energy drink bad?
    A friend of mine said that her brother had died from drinking to many of these.

    • ANSWER:
      I think it's all of that sugar in those things, I remember I used to drink alot of them, then found out I was diabetic, I was crashing and didnt have a clue. Stick to water, it meets all of your needs for rehydration, you could always add a twist of orange or lemon or Crystalite.

27. QUESTION:
    Monster Energy Drink mental effects?
    My sister has been depressed for a while and hasn't told anyone until now. She claims that drinking the energy drink Monster makes her happy and she drinks 3 of them a day. I keep telling her to stop drinking them and to just wait until she sees a psychologist but she won't listen to me. What's causing her to feel happy? Is it all in her head?

    • ANSWER:
      The drinks may make her believe that since she feels physically energized, they can also help to mollify her negative thought processes, but, in fact, she is only numbing her emotional responses.

      She is only suppressing her feelings, rather than acknowledging them in order to release them.

28. QUESTION:
    Why is that you can't take 5-hour energy drink when your nursing?
    I need some real serious energy to get stuff done....I want to take the 5-hour energy drink but it says not to when you are nursing or pregnant. i am nursing my 10 month old daughter. What could taking it do to her? Or me?
    How long would the drink stay in the breast milk?

    • ANSWER:
      The 5 hour energy drink will get into your breast milk, and your baby will get the effects. There is no way to stop this. The baby will get super-energized, scream for hours and not sleep for two day.
      Trust me, this is not a way to get things done.

31. QUESTION:
    My sister is battling hepatitis c and is completely fatigued. What can she do to get her energy level up?
    We (the family) has checked out all the websites and recommendations but none work. How is a person with no energy at all (not even to get to work on time) supposed to "stay active" as a remedy to fatigue?? Makes no sense to me....What can she do to make sure she can keep her job (and therefore insurance to treat this thing)?

    We've tried coffee, its only a temporary fix and the caffiene is not good for her. Neither are energy drinks. She has always been a health eater, so that really isn't helping anything right now. What else works in this situation?

    • ANSWER:
      I currently have a blood pressure problem (it will go sky high and drop really low in around a minute) and sadly, fatigue is one hibg I have to deal with, like your sister. What I have found, is that when I get up I don't want to move... At all. Not even to eat. So I'll get some sweet tea (because of the caffeine) and drink it the morning to start moving. Like you said, coffee is only a temporary fix. But if you give her coffee and get her to start moving, she should be better. Ir always works for me. Also after school I get tea or a pepsi or coffee and drink some of that. Then (if it's nice out) I'll go outside an relax and just mess around. I don't know why but it really helps. I still feel like poo in the morning, but it feels no different than getting 2 hours of sleep. After tea and about a half hour, I feel like I it 16 hours of sleep. Just keep er on cafiene and keep her moving. This is the third week I'm dealing with the blood pressure problem and I feel loads better. I hope it works with your sister too!!

    my sister drinks them all the time but ive never had one and my mom wont buy me 1 can u help o and my sister gets her freinds to buy them for her and i dnt want my freinds to buy me some cause theyll most likely drink them.

    • ANSWER:
      Go ahead and thumbs down me, but... You don't need any energy drinks and you know it. You have tons of energy! The truth is you are looking to get an almost "high" from these drinks, aren't you? I understand, I love that elevated feeling of caffeine, it makes me feel like I can do ANYTHING, but stick to your mountain dew and chocolate for now, ok? There will come a day when the "want" will turn sharply into a "need", save your tolerance levels until you really need it. With grown up issues. You know I love you and only want what's best for you. Trust me on this one.

      Love you,

      Big Sis

35. QUESTION:
    what are the effects of drinking the energy drink Monster or other energy drinks during preganacy?
    i have this friend who is 17 and pregnant for the first time.she has no knowledge of pregnancy.i told her not to drink energy drinks while preganant.i didn't give reasons why as i dont know for sure.but i am thinking that if it speeds up our own heart rate it would the baby's as well right?could it cause heart defects,heart failure, or the heart to burst?she doesnt listen and i need facts to back up what i will tell her so she doesnt harm her baby for her own stupidity.
    i just read my can of monster and it does say not recomended for pregnant women.

    monster contains taurine ,panax ginseng, L-carnitine ,guarana ,inositol, glucuronolctone ,and maltodextrin.

    • ANSWER:
      They all have caffein in high doses which isn't good for the unborn child. Also some contain taurin which is harmfull for the unborn child - the energy drink I have in mind actually has a warning printed on the can that says that pregnant women should not consume the drink. There are also other things in it that can cause deformities in the fetus. I read up on energy drinks when I was pregnant because I also liked them, but decided not to take any chances and didn't have any eversince.

    drink ideas with red bull or other energy drinks?
    i'm mostly a beer guy but i want to make drinks for my gf when i visit...anybody know any good mixes that use red bull or other energy drinks?? i know she drinks redbull and vodka but are there any other drink ideas with red bull i can impress her with?? something thats fun, maybe colorful and tasty? any help greatly appreciated...

    • ANSWER:
      Bull" Drinks

      S.O.B.
      No, it's not what you think. Your mother won't get offended with this one. It's Stoli Orange and Red Bull. Served as a highball on the rocks. Ask the guys at Freeskier Magazine about this one. An orange wedge for garnish.

      Bazooka Bull
      It'll blow your mind out of the canon! It's Bacardi Limon and Red Bull. Served as a highball on the rocks. Tastes like a Bazooka Joe Bubble Gum.

      Blaster
      It started in Europe and made its way to Denver. Presentation is important with this. A pint glass with a can of Red Bull on top with it's tab open so that the can will rest on the glass and pour on its own while the bartender pours the Jagermeister into a shot glass. Drop the shot of Jager into the glass of Red Bull and chug. Also known in Breckenridge as a "Bullmeister".

      Dirty Little Bastard
      Created by some bartenders in Montana, this one consists of a pint glass filled with ice and a shot of Bacardi 151, fill with Red Bull and a float of Jagermeister. Drink it through a straw till it's gone. Keep your hands on the glass, not the person sitting next to you.

      Depth Charger
      There is some controversy over this one. Whatever they call it, it's much like the Blaster only you substitute Stoli Vanilla and Grand Marnier for the Jager. Remember, presentation is important. Create fun!

      Chambull

42. QUESTION:
    Why is it possible to light red bull energy drink on fire?
    I recently watched my cousin open a can of sugar-free Red Bull and light it on fire. Her prof assigned it as homework. Don't get me wrong, it wasn't a large flame, but it certainly was on fire. I was with her when she bought it and brought it home, so there was no trickery involved. I am baffled... any ideas as to why?
    Also, it doesn't matter whether it reg. Red Bull or Sugar free.

    • ANSWER:
      could be the sweetener which could be a different type sugar then sucrose. and i have seen sugar catching fire so i am pretty sure that it is the sugar in the drink.

      Top 4 Foods Guaranteed To Give You a Burst of Energy
      By: Marci Lall

      Oatmeal

      Eating oatmeal can do wonders to your body. It’s high in fiber, low in fat, and low in calories. In addition, consuming oatmeal helps prevent heart disease by lowering your bad cholesterol (LDL) and increasing your good cholesterol (HDL). Oatmeal’s also great because it’s a meal in which you can customize and be as creative as you want. You can top it off with fruit, nuts, or berries for some added flavor and nutrients.

      Yogurt

      Throughout the years yogurt has been sky-rocketing in popularity. This calcium-rich food keeps your bones staying super strong and helps fight off any infections by increasing your immune system.

      Another added benefit is the live bacteria in yogurt. These good bacteria help to keep your intestinal tract functioning at its optimal level. Now you don’t need to go out and buy the yogurt with high fat or extra fat content. You’ll get the same benefits with the low-fat or non-fat versions. Just like oatmeal you can also add fruits, nuts, berries, or high fiber cereals to give your yogurt an extra kick in nutritional value and flavor.

      Spinach

      Have you ever watched Popeye? If you have, then you know what happens when he gets his spinach fix. His muscles pop out and he gets this great big burst of energy and ends up beating the crap out of the guy.

      My point is not to eat spinach and beat the crap out of people but that spinach holds many nutrients that will give you that extra boost of energy.

      Spinach is a vegetable that’s packed with vitamins, minerals and super healing powers. On top of that it’s a great source for antioxidants, and folic acid that will help protect you from many diseases. Research has also shown that spinach may lower your risk of strokes, colon cancer, cataracts, heart disease, osteoporosis, hip fractures, memory loss, Alzheimer's disease, depression, and even birth defects.

      Canned Salmon, Tuna, or Sardines

      A big thing hitting the media now-a-days is heart health. Salmon, tuna, and sardines are three fishes that are loaded with essential, heart-healing, inflammation-fighting omega-3 fatty acids. Getting these fish into your daily eating plan is pretty easy. You can just add them to a fresh tossed salad; add them into a sandwich or as a snack on some healthy crackers.

47. QUESTION:
    Besides energy drinks, what can my 11yr.old child have to wake her up?
    my daughter has a soccer game early in the morning & she went to sleep later than I was hoping for. what can she eat or drink right before her game that won't upset her stomach and hopefully give her a boost because I know she's going to be tired. I heard eating chocolate candy worked?

    • ANSWER:
      The problem with chocolate is that the energy wears out very fast, and she'd soon crash, probably before the game's over.

      Since the game is early in the morning and very soon after getting up, I recommend a good cold (or cool if it's too much for her) shower right after getting up and a complete breakfast. That should get her nice and alert for a few hours. By the time her energy wears down due to lack of sleep, the game should be over and she could take a nap or something.

      Good luck....

48. QUESTION:
    Is it safe to drink a can of Rockstar Juiced Energy + Juice drink that has been in the fridge for like a year?
    We moved into this new place and our landlord's niece's stuff was still in here. She said her friend left a can of Rockstar Juiced Energy that we could have. I just want to make sure it's okay after sitting around for a year? It is unopened.

    • ANSWER:
      This is shady. Rockstars are like .50? Buy a new one!

49. QUESTION:
    Can I drink a rockstar energy drink if I'm nursing?
    My daughter isn't that sensitive to caffeine. I drink about 2 cans of soda (with caffeine) per day and it doesn't bother my daughter at all. Occasionally I'll drink a big cup of coffee with no effects from her.
    I'm not sure how strong the energy drink is.
    If I drink it in moderation all throughout the day, will it be okay?
    *I'll be sure to watch for signs of fussiness from my baby.
    Does it have alcohol in it? I'm clueless. lol

    • ANSWER:
      No, Rockstar does not have alcohol. But it's still not healthy for you or your baby. Just because your daughter does not display obvious effects of caffeine, she IS being affected. Caffeine messes with a child's development, even out of the womb. Why do you need an energy boost? If you must drink coffee, drink caffeine free. It tastes the same, and no harm to the baby. If you can't do that, just monitor your caffeine intake.

50. QUESTION:
    POLL - What does the energy drink, mother do to you?
    My friend will always buy a mother after we go shopping. Then on the way back in the car (night time) she will stick her head out of the car and scream at people xD

    She does it every time because it's from being so hypo! What does it do to you?

    • ANSWER:
      These drinks tends to be high in sugar and caffeine. They can raise your blood pressure and heart rate very high. They are NOT soft drinks (although they are marketed as one). Large amount over a period of time can be detrimental to the body.

      there is always some warning on the label. But they are always too small for you to bother reading anyway. The warning usually say something like "do not drink more than 2 a day" .

      Personally - I wouldn't recommend ANYONE under 15 years old to drink it.
      Worse case scenario is death from heart attack

      There are anecdotal evidence that people have died from indirect result of drinking too much of this stuff. I have read of a case in my local area where one young man drank 5 of these drink in one hit then got "wild" and drove his car into a brick wall.

      DON'T under estimate what can happen to you or your friend.

      I know my answer is long and probably bordering on "lecturing" but I hate to see another person die or their health permanently impaired from their young age.
