Types Of Energy Drinks

A weight loss energy drink in anyone's hand these days is barely even noticeable. The lates 00004000 t phenomenon is the fact the what was a nothing industry 10 years ago has become so large and powerful that virtually every food/drinks company has stepped onto the weight loss energy drink playing field. Even celebrities are stamping their names, labels, or brands to a can or a bottle these days. Who ever saw it coming? One question to ponder in the fog of this enormous trend is this; aDoes the fact that this industry is in the backyard (or hand I should say) of everyone ranging from children to sports figures to senior citizens mean that these drinks are safe and effective?a Well, let's have a closer look.

We know that there is a tremendous need for proper nutrition in the western world, especially the United States, where the advent of genetically modified and hybrid foods, pesticides, chemical fertilizers, preservatives, and corporate farming practices has negatively affected the health of the U.S. in a major way. We have witnessed an epidemic explosion of diseases that were uncommon 25 years ago. Cancer, Type II diabetes, arthritis, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and many others have been on the rise with alarming speed.

When you understand that most of these diseases are directly related to a nutritional biochemical deficiency in the human body, the relevance of a weight loss energy drink factors in as either a problem or a solution, depending on their ingredients. If the drink has all of the vital nutrients that will help the body produce energy naturally, then it can be the solution to more than one problem: weight loss, energy, and aging. Proper nutrition is the foundation of all three. If it doesn't contain the necessary ingredients then it could be your foe.

It may seem hard to believe but the secret to weight loss is getting the proper nutrition from your die that enables the body to strive for efficiency, efficiency such as dumping excess bodyfat. One major problem with foods available today is that they contain toxins that accumulate in the body over many years. These toxins cause a plaque like sludge (referred to as abio-filma) to build up on the cells walls. This plaque buildup makes nutrient absorption very difficult, to say the least, and puts the body into a nutrient starvation state. The body's defense mechanism against this is the hunger response. This causes people to eat more food, thereby, storing more unnecessary calories in the form of fat

Energy production is another realm that is affected by toxins as well as the ingestion of the non-nutrient dense foods that are common in the American food supply. If a weight loss energy drink provides the proper energy driving nutrients it is a winner on more than one front. First is the stable energy supply, second is the energy supply allowing more fat burning activities during the day, and third is slowing the aging process and bolstering immune function.

Aging is directly related to the body's ability to produce intercellular energy. When cells are built from the known botanical compounds that result in the building of healthy energy producing cells, the excess energy can be directed toward skin repair, improved mental functioning, improved vision, connective tissue repair, immune function, and other repair and rebuild factors that require ENERGY.

It is a rare find when you can purchase weight loss products that don't contain a nervous system stimulant as the driving force for energy. This product perpetuates the myth that effective weight loss comes from stimulating the nervous system with high amounts of caffeine, ephedra, gurana root, or other stimulants to lose weight. This elevated nerve response, over time, can be very dangerous, not to mention the fact that nervous system stimulants result in an energy crash and a net loss of energy production in the body.

It is prudent to look at all the ingredients and familiarize yourself with those that are important to your overall health. If the body has all the nutrients necessary for natural energy product then you won't need an energy drink full of stimulants. The ultimate weight loss energy drink addresses all of these issues. Be selective when making a choice.

    I went into my local health food store they sold 2 types of energy drinks. 1 for guys and 1 for woman?
    If I drank the one for Women by mistake would I start getting annoying little stroppy mood swings and would I start ALWAYS being right. Oh yes and would I wait until the cashier in sainsburys told me the amount THEN start to rummage in my bag for some form of payment and some silly little loyalty card for 15 minutes NOT caring if the people behind me had better things to do than stand in a que all day.

    • ANSWER:
      Lol - Becky - speak for yourself - i know alot of women who do that (myself NOT included i might add).

  11. QUESTION:
    are energy drinks fattening?
    i googled this and all the yahoo answers people are like "omg its bad for you, they contain loads of calories blah blah" but they dont have any reasion to back it up.

    I drink energy drinks quite often and i do admit they do have some side effects on me, but i can live with them, however what im most worried is calorie intake. Most types of energy drinks that I drink (mainly monster and relentless) have about 250 calories per can, 250 calories just doesn't look like a big number to me? especially since i usually dont need to eat anything after my can of monster.

    So isn't having a 250 calorie drink (most of the time i cant finish it anyways) better than having a 400 calories sandwich or meal?
    or am i missing something here?

  12. QUESTION:
    How do energy drinks give you "energy"?
    I have tried several types of energy drinks, and none of them seem to work for me. What makes an energy drink give you energy?

    • ANSWER:
      Healthy ones like V8, Boost, - most all the others that make the claim just give you a boost of sugar and caffeine. And when that rush is over you feel tired because your blood sugar gets low. A glass of chocolate milk gives you a better boost of energy. Just ask about the latest fitness survey - the people who hit the gym or workout agree.

      Check your local fitness gyms and stores. They should be able to tell you what is better for you.

( the test demands a lot of concentracion ) Will having a red bull or any other type of ENERGY drink help me stay alert during the test?

    BTW im 13

    Thanks :)

    • ANSWER:
      DO NOT TAKE ENERGY DRINKS! They will just give you a crash afterward. They are highly unhealthy.

      If you need help on getting to sleep I would say you bathe with something that has lavender in it or use lavender lotion. Lavender has been proven to be able to help soothe a person and possibly induce sleep. Maybe you can even listen to some soothing music. It might help,..

      I took the SHSAT and got into Tech. A good breakfast in the morning will keep you energized and ready to go. Hope I helped! :)

  36. QUESTION:
    What caffeinated beverages besides those that use Aspartame work best?
    My best friend is super dooper sensitive when it comes to just about anything and she actually used Diet Mt. Dew as a wake up source. Drinking one can of it (or any diet soda, but MT. Dew specifically cuz she loves the taste) wakes her up like 2-3 cups of coffee would wake the average person...it's just ridiculous! She also chews Extra gum which again has Aspartame. I worry about her Aspartame intake very much cuz she's a pretty avid gum chewer and diet Mt. Dew drinker. I do not need any facts pro or against Aspartame as that's not why i am here. I am asking what beverages (besides coffee and energy drinks would would wire her for days!) are out there that someone has tried that they liked the taste of? Just drinking an Iced Tea wakes her up so I do not need any energy type drinks or any kind mentioned. Trying to help her ween off of Aspartame products and she's pretty dependant so I really do need serious help!
    I meant taste best (regarding the title) but Yahoo won't allow me to change it
    Pepsi One does have Aspartame BTW. I looked at Pepsi's website to confirm

    • ANSWER:
      Pepsi one is sweetened with Splenda. http://www.pepsi.com/pepsi_brands/product_info/pepsione/index.php

      As are some other drinks like Diet Rite. Not sure about any other sodas. It sounds like your friend relies on caffeine to wake up and it doesn't have anything to do with aspartame. I personally like hot tea, or iced tea, as a natural beverage and caffeine source. Chai tea and White tea are excellent beverages that have a subtle taste.

  45. QUESTION:
    What types of components of the energy drinks could provide biological energy? Why?
    its for my research project

    • ANSWER:
      Basically its the surgar ingredients that give the surge of energy, the rest of the ingredients are preservitives. The carbonation is what gives the appeal and attraction to the drink. Also the carbonation works to speed up the surgar to our system. I think your better off drinking a can of Coke Classic, were talking 60 cents a can vs 2-3 dollars a can for an energy drink.

  46. QUESTION:
    Is arizona RX Energy better to drink than Rockstar or other type of carbonated energy drinks?

    Maybe you should stop thinking you're better than me and answer the question...or even better, do answer the question at all.
    Thank you for your REAL, NON PRETENTIOUS ANSWERS!

    • ANSWER:
      No way...Rockstar has the most punch. Just look at the dietary facts on the back of both cans. Your probably asking this question because the Arizona brand is cheaper. But in order to pack the same amount of energy Rockstar has, you'll need 2 cans (same price as Rockstar).

      Personally, go for the 5 hour energy shot. Lasts longer.

  47. QUESTION:
    An Energy drink that will always wakes you up and gets you through the day.?
    How would you make that type of energy drink with? After all, most people complain that energy drinks today do not do anything for them.

    • ANSWER:
      A good fruit smoothie that contains carbohydrates AS WELL as protein and fiber. Most energy drinks just have carbohydrates (in the form of SUGAR or HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP, which are both very unhealthy). However, if you make a good fruit smoothie, your carbohydrates will come from the natural sugars present in the fruit, which is far more superior than sugar or HFCS. Plus, the fruit will supply you with a natural source of vitamins and minerals, which is more readily absorbed by the body than the synthetic stuff they put in energy drinks. Therefore, drinking a fruit smoothie will provide you with more nutrition than an energy drink.

      Also, I suggest that you make your fruit smoothie with whole milk or yogurt, because you need some protein and fat to keep you feeling satiated as well as energized. If you have too little of either of the three macronutrients (carbs, protein, and fat) you will not feel as energized. Plus, protein and fat is absorbed slowly into the bloodstream, so you get a steady supply of energy. But an energy drink, which only consists of carbs, will give you a sudden rush of energy that eventually disappears before you want it too! It does not have a lasting effect because all you did was give your body simple carbs.

      So if I were you, I would make a fruit and yogurt smoothie. Plus, it tastes delicious!

  50. QUESTION:
    any type of energy drinks/supplements or vitamines.?
    i'm thinking of buying some type of energy boost because i feel that i really need it. But I've heard of some energy supplements that gives you the energy needed but with the side effect that afterwards it gives you a dibilitating crash (meaning that you end up feeling tire and wored out) does anybody know from experience of some of these energy supplements that works but really tires you out in the end.
    i'm really looking for a energy supplement that wears you out afterward.

    • ANSWER:
      Me and my friends drink all kinds of energy drinks and supplements all the time. We have tried Monster, Red Bull, Lost, Rockstar, 5hour Energy and pretty much all the Store Brands. Everyone says that they are unhealthy and will give you a Debilitating Crash, however few of us have ever had one [[only if we overworked ourselves during the time that we consumed the Energy drinks ]] If you really want that Crash I suggest trying the different brands out until one makes you tired afterward.

      Just remember...
      What works for me, may not work for you.
