Great video! Short! To the point! JAM PACKED with great info!!! You may need to change your name to CaffeineWoman! But I still like GreenEyedGuide. 👍👍👍👍👍
I prefer Caffeine Queen 🤣💚 thanks!
@@GreenEyedGuide Funny story- many years back, when i originally found your website, I forgot to bookmark it thinking I could easily remember it. Several months later, when I had an urgent caffeine question, I went to find your page. No matter how hard I searched I couldn't find it. I put in GreenEyedGoddess. Why isnt she there? GreenEyedGirl. Nope. Im pretty sure it was GreenEyedGoddess. GoddessWithGreenEyes. Nope. What could it be??? I ended up searching for "caffeine scientist" and you popped up. 😂
I think GreenEyedGoddess works too. Or Caffeine Goddess.
@@CaffeineMan1 🤣🤣🤣 I blame my love for alliteration on this one. I just *had* to pick GreenEyedGuide- I get called Green Eyed Girl a lot - It makes me feel like I'm 9 years old - but GreenEyedGoddess sounds amazing too! That is a funny story.
oo you here too XD
Legend says she is still replying to comments even after more then a year of uploading this video ❤
It's the truth! 🥰 That's how I roll. I'm grateful to anyone who takes the time to watch and comment. I appreciate the support of my work. 🤓💚☕⚡🔬
@@GreenEyedGuide god bless you ma'am
Well, this is very helpful, i just like drinking energy drinks, i don't really drink them because i am tired.
And you're not alone- In fact, multiple research papers have proven "Taste" is among the top 3 reasons people drink energy drinks. Thanks for watching and commenting, liking and (hopefully) sharing. I appreciate your support of my work. 💚
Same
Me too I love how the Monster brand taste. I've tried most brands available in my country and Monster is on another level of quality imo.
Me too, I just like the taste, especially monster juiced, ripper and mango loco, and sugar free redbull. Caffiene does nothing for me either. I drink them purely for the taste.
I started off like that….. then I ended up with 600mg plus alcohol in my system every day.
Great content, I used to drink 4 & 5 energy drinks a day. I was constantly tired from lack of restful sleep (6-7hrs). I researched the effects of caffeine on the body. After reading, I cut back to drinking 36oz of coffee & tried to limit the intake to only in the AM. I sleep better with the same amount of sleep, & I’m not tired all the time now. Caffeine has a shelf life in our system, & while caffeine is present, it blocks the adenosine receptors, which is what lets us know we are getting tired or sleepy. Caffeine is good, but time & quantity is key. Again great content!
Thank you for the video. I'm 24 and I work as a surveyor, so long days tiring days. I drink one sugar free energy drink every day when I get up monster, rockstar, c4 whatever is on sale for about 2ish years now. I'm always worried what could happen but everything I see online,says that a sugar free energy drink once a day is no different then drinking coffee. The cancer scare from them was a myth of the past and all that. so this video helped to calm my nerves alot.
I ve been drinking Green Monster for 10 years now sometimes two per day and im still healthy. However i understand is not for everyone. Also you should drink a lot of water at the end of your day, it cleans your body.
Im a nurse and for the past 3 years i have been drinking a sugar free monster almost every day. A month ago i was working nights out of town and driving 5 hours once or twice a week to go home while drinking 1-2 monsters a day, and sleeping about 2-4 hours a day sometimes not sleeping at all for 24 hours.. I did this for about a month and woke up one morning with palpitations that persisted.. about 5 hours later my apple watch told me i had afib.. did an ekg at the hospital and i had Afib RVR in the 140s-160s. this is a dangerous arrythmia that can lead to more complications. I had to be admitted to the hospital and finally converted back to a normal sinus rythym after about 20 hours.... im only 29 years old.. scariest time of my life.
As a person experiencing insomnia, depression and anxiety disorder, it is a nice alternative to stay awake when you are sleep deprived is nice when you are studying at ghe University. As you said, only take them when really needed otherwise the effect will decrease as thr body build a tolerance. Thanks for the informations 👍
I think you are incredible for sharing your knowledge with everyone, thank you so much for doing it , my experience with Monster Energy was terrible , after taking 1 can a day everyday I felt I could lift the whole gym , after 2 months doing so , I woke up with a terrible pain in the abdomen, sweating gallons , it was scary , I went to the doctor to check it out , there was an alteration in my liver and I knew it was caused by the energy drink because I eat healthy , don’t drink , don’t smoke and never did any drugs , I researched and found out that inositol found on energy drinks are bad for the liver , so I quit the energy drinks and did another test 3 months later to find out that my liver was back to normal , some brands are stronger and potentially more harmful than others due the high caffeine as well , the sugar found on these drinks can eventually lead to diabetes like happened to a friend of mine on his 30’s . Just wanted to share that you , thank you for all you do and keep up !
I'm glad you're on the mend, feeling better. I didn't expect you to say it was because of the inositol. The Maximum Daily Intake is 4grams. You'd need way more than 1 can of Monster Energy a day to get that amount. Ultimately I'm glad you were able to get better. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
My (sugar free) Monster addiction started during my time in the Marine Corps. It started as one white monster when I really needed it, fast forward almost 5 years (I’m now out of the Marine Corps)…. My addiction followed me. I have at least one sugar free monster a day. I hardly ever have more than one, and if I do I make sure there’s at least 6-8 hours in between the drinks while drinking plenty of water in between. So thank you for making this video with useful information and content! I definitely need to incorporate a few of your tips into my habit!
Woman, where have you been all my life?! You called people out on their BS, yet gave accurate information based on your many years of study. You're beautiful, kind, and super smart... very uncommon! haha. Thank you so much for this information. I have caffeine throughout the day, keeping it to one energy drink and a half tab for 100MG Caffeine if I feel a slump around 6 hours after my 160MG Monster White drink. I keep it at or around 300 per day and I'm feeling fine. Sometimes I do get tired after taking a caffeine pill, yet... don't seem to have the same problem when drinking an Energy drink. The pills in question are "No Doze" and I'm not sure if the extra vitamin content in the Monster (4000% daily amount of bullsh#t, whatever that means) that gives the extra pep in the step?
What a refreshing video with a pleasantly different approach to energy drinks. I have subscribed to your newsletter and to your channel. I will enjoy watching your videos on a daily basis (with my energy drink of choice) 🙂
I just stumbled upon your channel, reccomended by CaffeineMan. Its so refreshing to listen to you. Im so tired of the media using all of these "energy drinks are DANGEROUS!!!!" headlines, to make money out of people, written by journalists with absolutely no doctor or scientific background. I like how informative and reflective you are. And also you are the cutest biochemist btw. One question tho, what about sugar free monsters? Lets say, the Monster Ultra Series. Would it be okay for me to drink one 16oz can of them every day? ( I take my cod liver oil on a daily basis aswell:-)
Thank you so much for the kind words!!! I'm glad you enjoy the content, and grateful for people like CaffeineMan. Yes, having a SugarFree Monster isn't a problem if you have 1 every day. It's even better if you can switch it up now and then with different drinks but there's nothing in Monster Sugarfree that isn't "Generally Recognized as Safe". Plus, the caffeine content is alarming like that of Bang or Reign. You should be fine - listen to tour body. Thanks for watching and commenting and sharing! 💚
Finally some normal video on energy drinks, all those other videos make it look like it's some hardcore drug and you shouldn't ever drink it. Good video straight to the point 👍
The fact that you have to call the poison center because of energy drinks. Says it all. Thank you
Watermelon is my favorite fruit. Not sure how much sugar is in that though, im type 2 diabetic. :)
It's not much, only 17g in one serving. Not TOO bad...
I appreciate your work you do a lot to help us ❤️
Thank you!
Awwww..............ure so sweet even after a year you are replying
@@premnathvishwakarma2385 It's no problem. I get the notifications from RUclips same as any recent video. I'm always grateful for comments and views, no matter how long ago the content was posted.
Osm you are fabulous about it
If u wouldn't had my exams on my head I might watch all your vdo.. love you
did the candy list say creakhead candy? anyway great & helpful video
Well this is informative. I already have a one can per day rule set up. Too much caffeine ain't good in energy drinks. Plus we're God's own creations. Our bodies are temples of Him.
I drink 1 energy drink per day (massive can not the regular one)
And Idk if this is harmful or not but sometimes when I sleep at night I feel like my heart is beating faster than usual
I suppose we all immediately think of the most unhealthy energy drinks when someone says do you drink one every day. Oh and a banana I could eat everyday. Not very acidic and great for cycling, lifting weights, etc.
I think so too. I've personally met parents concerned about their kids drinking Red Bull but I'd actually be (more) ok with my kid drinking Red Bull than Monster or heaven forbid Bang.
@@GreenEyedGuide Absolutly agree. I'm quite concerned about Bang, Reign, and Monster.
@@ThriftHunt3r Hey speaking of concerns, thanks for all your comments and watching and subscribing- Do you have any requests for a future episode?
Me watching this while drinking energy drink😂
I've been drinking energy drinks daily for about 2 years, specifically Gfuel, which is pretty much like a pre workout, you mix it in water and you have an energy drink. It has 140-150mg of caffeine. I recently stopped drinking them since I've been feeling really bad from my stomach, I felt bloated all the time, sometimes I had nausea. I really miss the caffeine since I'm studying my masters degree and working, do you think caffeine pills could be a good alternative?
I’m trying to go back to coffee but I hate it in the morning
bless ur soul
Probably pineapple or lychees. I went on a cruise back in 2018 and in one of the ports we visited I had lychees (Hondurus). Amazing! Kinda like a skinless grape but not as falvorful but very sweet.
Side note: I want to be a biochemist. Any tips on achieving?
Hi Lucy, I used to work in a Japanese Mochi factory as Quality Assurance and Lychee was one of the flavors we made. I don't think I've seen it or had any since, but it is yummy. In terms of pursuing biochemistry my #1 tip is to start with a general biochem college class. There are so many different areas you can pursue, from pharma to genetics to (my favorite) metabolic and more! For me, biochem was perfect because it was the gateway to understanding how our bodies react, chemically, when we eat food. A general course is your best bet to finding what ignites your passion.
My doctor told me its fine. I have very low VB12 and i wasnt absorbing supplements. I drank 2 the day before a test and it came back normal. My sugar was fine so idn.
If you've ever taken multivitamins in the morning and chased them with Starbucks, you ARE drinking what's in a standard energy drink.
Well not exactly. There is a difference when you get your caffeine from coffee because you're getting extra benefits from the chlorogenic acid and other phytochemicals in the coffee. On the other hand, if you're drinking a carbonated energy drink, there's additional "perceived energy" because of the carbonation. Plus taurine reduces bloat and increases fat absorption so you feel different in immeasurable ways with the taurine. In terms of the nutrients, you're not wrong, but in my opinion there's so much more to it which affects us mentally and physically. And sure, some of it might be the placebo effect but I think still matters
@UCNqlATKLzy-JG8qiZmbGpKg exactly! I am a chemist and I think I might be more pro-energy drink than you think I am. For one, it drives me crazy when people say energy drinks are poison because there's a HUGE difference between having a Bang energy drink every single day versus having a Mati or V8 or any other energy drink that doesn't fit the stereotype. So my #1 point is it's unfair to say an energy drink every day is going to kill you. But my second point is there are some small differences between having a Red Bull every single day versus a coffee. Those differences aren't "one is good for you, the other is poison, the difference is about all the other reactions that your body goes through with Red Bull ingredients versus coffee ingredients. I hope that clarifies my POV. Thank you SO MUCH for your comments and for watching and commenting.
@@GreenEyedGuide yeah, and i would add that for me personally coffee tends to upset my stomach, sometimes quite a bit. However, with energy drinks these side effects are minimal
@@nikolaisedov2295 you're not alone, that's for sure. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment 💚
My dad LITERALLY bought 480 cans of XDurance Rockstar (from the auction). So that's why I'm here.
I agree with you miss because when i started drinking monster i was 14 i went on a spree only for the first six months had like 2 and 3 a day but it simmered down to 1 and mabe 2 but i also Drank enough water to cover it . Now i am 21 and don't drink monster energy as I use to but it's a craving at least 3 times or 4 times for the week ...
Yes, I know what you mean. Sometimes I do crave certain energy drinks too. Thanks for watching and commenting- I appreciate your support and I'm glad you enjoyed this episode. 💚
I just drink a lot of water,like at least 2 liters a day, like 70oz , school its just stressful, and my sleep schedule its fuked up....
Yeah, that's a great amount of water. Sorry your schedule is messed up. I always laugh when doctors talk about teens and young adults not getting enough sleep like it's a choice... maybe sometimes it is, like if someone plays video games all night or something, but there are just as many students who are trying to balance family and jobs School and don't have time to sleep. So much pressure on such young shoulders. Thank you so much for watching my video, I hope it helped. I appreciate your support. 💚
@@GreenEyedGuide i appreciate u doing the video, and it calmed me down cause i am drinking about one can of monster a day and a lot of people said that i'll be dead when im 20, u see its just a lot to deal with, but on weekend or when i can i sleep to catch with my schedule:))
Have a wonderful day and thanks for everything💚
@@thehum4n Yes, those people who worry so much about energy drinks are a major reason I started GreenEyedGuide. So many news headlines about energy drinks get blown out of context so it's not helpful to people who DO drink them. Have you see my "Are Energy Drinks Bad" series at GreenEyedGuide.com?
@@GreenEyedGuide not yet, but imma check it out
I drink at least 1 or 2 cans every day
What about the studies?
Thank you Very much! I love this video.
Yay! I'm so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching and commenting. I appreciate your support 💚
I don't drink them usually but now i have really hard exams but i am afraid of getting sick or addicted to them and I don't like coffee so yea 💔
My problem is that there is a energy drink manufacturer who makes the best tasting drinks,ever!stuff like litchi, coconut water and guava.ginger and lime and dry lemon.all of these taste amazing when chilled and really tastes like a soft drink instead.
Hi my tummy is pushed out several inches and rock hard within minutes if drinking energy drinks daily for one year, it just started doing this 5 days ago. I feel badly.
Why do I feel acidly after I drink the energy drink?
I'm 37, the thing that surprises me is when I see people over the age of 25 drinking them! they're so blatantly marketed towards teens and up, just look at the packaging on them! especially the monsters. If you're 25+, you should know better.
Sure, if you're over 25 I'd hope you choose drinks (caffeinated or not) with lower Calories, smaller portions, and low-moderate caffeine content. Healthy adults can have 400mg caffeine per day, from all sources and there's no difference between caffeine from an energy drink or coffee: the caffeine molecule affects your body the same way. Thank you for taking the time to comment.
Thanks
I find this helpful and interesting.
Sometimes when I drink a red bull people tell me that is bad and all that, but I only drink once or twice a week and here I am fresh like a lettuce.🤔
I want to stop drinking drinks with caffeine because I need caffeine but my teeth are not doing well from them :-(. I brush and floss twice a day but my teeth aren't pearly white anymore like they used to be :-((
I understand. I know the acidity of energy drinks isn't that great for your teeth. And it's not just energy drinks, other acidic drinks like orange juice and coffee can also damage our enamel or stain teeth. Keep up the brushing and flossing - that helps your health in other ways even if your teeth aren't pearly white. Thanks for watching and commenting! I appreciate your support of my work. 💚
Great video. This is what I’m looking for. I’m just getting on a addiction program and I guess I’m replacing drugs with Red Bull. Just a new addiction I have to kick. Might document this not sure.
Hello Danielle, could you talk about GLUT4 activates in high performance exercises and the alternative of ephedra, (citrus aurantium), energy drinks free of ephedra. Thank you for sharing.
Ooh - that might be interesting to get really nerdy and talk about enzymes - now you're really bringing the biochemist in me out for all to see! :D I'll look into the citrus aurantium too. Thanks for the suggestion.
I actually wanted to drink "Monster Energy Ultra", 0 sugars, 30mg of caffeine every 100ml, so 150mg of caffeine in total every day, I just like it and help me during my diet. The ingredients I found: citric acid, panax ginseng extract, sucralose, acesulfame K, sorbic acid, benzoic acid, L-carnitine L-tartrate, sodium chloride, D-glucuronolactone, inositol. Could you tell me or explain if I have to worry about something in particular among these? looking on the internet I struggled to understand which ingredient was really dangerous taken daily, thanks
No comcerns here with those ingredients, as long as you keep it to less than 2 a day max (and save the 2/day for the worst of the worst kind of days). By the way, you should totally check out my book "Are You A Monster or a Rock Star: A Guide to Energy Drinks". It's on Audible and Kindle and in paperback and hardcover wherever books are sold. Your local library might even have it!
Sucralose every day? Not good.
Tysm but dont u have blue eyes?
What u think about Celsius it’s a pretty good energy drink
It's 2x the amount of caffeine as a Red Bull and there's nothing special about it in terms of the Caffeine or fitness aspect. Caffeine is caffeine. The claims they make on the front about metabolism-caffeine does that. If you like the taste and it's not too much caffeine for you, go for it. But it only takes 75mg of caffeine to get a functional effect, so you might not need 200mg every time. Health authorities say 200mg is the max amount of caffeine that is safe before a workout and 200mg is exactly how much Caffeine is in Celsius. It's technically a safe dosage but you don't need that full 200mg to see a benefit in your workouts.
@@GreenEyedGuide wow thank u so much this was very helpful 🥰
I drink 4 cans of Monster a day. 2L of water as well. I'm still alive, at least for now. Lets hope my heart doesn't explode.
Yeah, you might have low caffeine sensitivity but I don't recommend having more than 2 cans a day. Have you tried nursing your drinks to make them last longer? Also if you have energy drinks with a lot of sugar, the sugar can actually make you more tired than if you have caffeine alone. www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0149763418309175?via%3Dihub
@@GreenEyedGuide ty for the reply. My wife is a physician and is concerned as well; I tried to drink less, but is kind hard to stop. The ones I drink have no sugar; I hardly eat or drink things with sugar. But I can try 2 cans a day. I usually drink 2 by the morning and 2 by the night. I sleep normaly. Ty again. Sorry about my english, I'm brazilian, so it may contain some stupid errors above.
@@GreenEyedGuide At the beggining I couldn't sleep at all, and started drinking energy drinks BEFORE it, so I could at least stay "focused" at night. Then, I discovered that my lack of sleeping was due to depression; after treatment I can sleep just fine. This is very important to take notice: sometimes the reason why you can't sleep is not just caffeine. Now I'm addicted to energy drinks and caffeine, and I'm trying to stop, but I'm struggling to do so.
Your video helped me a bit; I try my best to stay healthy, and energy drinks are my "sin" while on diet. (I have gluten alergy)
@@cachorrofilosofico No worries! I understand you perfectly. I put together a little book that talks about 10 ways to get more OOMPH from your caffeine.

Im 15yo I drink like 1-2 energy drinks a week and I drink them slowly it takes 5-10minutes to finish a can so Im safe I think. I usually drink them before studying or late night gaming and it helps. So will there be something wrong with me soon or not?

@@GreenEyedGuide ya I enjoyed it alot
1:38 - same as from everybody... energy drinks are bad.. thanks for the "fantastic ,new information". :) Why do I need to watch the whole video?
Umm, because "energy drinks are bad" is the myth I debunk in this video...
I just loved this video and loved the beautiful lady tearing apart bullshit around bro-science related to Energy drinks .... thank you ... I got my answer !!!
I hope someone reads this and can help me. So I've had one can of Energy Drinks a day for about two years, it specifically is Rockstar Grape (160mg of caffeine is in a 500 ml can, and it has 38,5g of sugar). Yes, there is only the 500ml can. I have no issues sleeping or anything just sometimes, when I'm having one, I get dizzy, it depends if I've eaten enough or something like that. I developed a habit of drinking one every day at late evening and the thought of not having one makes me a bit upset.
Hmmm, dizziness can be due to a few different things, including the sugar and the caffeine. I love the Zero Ultra Rockstar Grape myself. If you're not having trouble sleeping, it could be the sugar rush on an empty stomach. Maybe you could try a sugar-free grape Rockstar and see if you notice the difference - that might be a better option if you're not interested in cutting it out altogether. I hope that helps! Let me know...
@@GreenEyedGuide The problem is I live in germany and we don't have suagr free Grape here, but I am seeing a specialist soon because of my dizziness
@@charlene4419 I see. Well hopefully the specialist can be more helpful than me, haha. Good luck and I hope everything turns out okay! Thanks again for taking the time to comment.
@@GreenEyedGuide I thank you, I didn't expect an answer so quickly.

I stopped for 40 days, but I have started again
Am I good with 12.oz Redbull to start my day? I work as a welder and been drinking energy drinka everyday but just one when I wake up in the morning but eat and drink water during the whole day
Red Bull on a empty stomach can irritate it so I wouldn't recommend having Red Bull alone for breakfast. Also theoretically we're supposed to wait an hour after waking to have caffeine because the Cortisol Awakening Response... but if you wake up feeling dead tired, you might need caffeine right away. If you're interested, I've got more details about this reaction and more caffeine tips here: subscribe.greeneyedguide.com/newsletter

@@GreenEyedGuide thank you I'll keep that in mind good content
I’ve been drinking energy drinks everyday for the last 6 years :/
This helped me relax lol i thought i was tripping off 2 cans of monster
Depends if you count berry's.
If Berry count blue berry's and strawberrys, if not pears for 30 days.
Berries absolutely count! 💚
If I were to have about 16 energy drinks in two days how would that affect me?
That's probably not good... Side-effects you might experience include difficulty sleeping, nausea, anxiety, inability to sit still (like constantly tapping your foot), headache, racing heart, dizziness, and maybe vomiting (depending on the vitamin content in the energy drink). Most energy drinks recommended not having more than 2 per day. There are some people who have a low sensitivity - they process caffeine quickly so they feel it doesn't affect them - but still, 8 energy drinks a day is excessive IMO. Thank you for taking the time to watch and comment. I appreciate your support of my work. 💚
@@GreenEyedGuide I’m 15 and drink 1 bang every day but I’m very active and drink a gallon of water every day. But some people drink two is that bad?
@@ryleelatham7901 Drinking Bang is very dangerous for a 15 year old. It's 3x the caffeine minors should have in 1 day. It can really mess with your heart, and your brain. But besides all that, Bang has so much caffeine you're going to develop a caffeine tolerance, which means caffeine won't work for you by the time you get to college or have kids. That's gonna suck because sleep deprivation gets even worse when you're older. I'd much rather you drink Red Bull honestly (sugarfree!). It's a lot safer.

Aww, thank you!!!!
So the study on energy drinks constricting blood vessels is not accurate or true? The study was done with 24OZ Cans.
Well the study isn't at all helpful. It says, "Hey you know how all these other Scientific Studies (like FDA, EFSA, Heath Canada) say not to drink more than 200mg? Yeah, we agree, don't do that. It might constrict your blood vessels but we don't know why and we don't know if it's like really dangerous or not." So if you avoid consuming those 24 oz cans in 1 sitting you should be fine. Personally I feel like that blood vessel study is the same as giving people alcohol before they drive and saying, "Yep, confirmed, don't do that."
@@GreenEyedGuide Thanks for the help!

@@GreenEyedGuide the effects of a 24 oz can just seems risky XD, sure enough Dr David Kats said it only looks at acute effects. I feel so much better now ._. 😂

me and a friend we are going to buy 3 Monster energy and each one would drink a can and a half
would it be too bad? we would taste it for the first time
(we are 13 years old)
Yes, I would NOT recommend doing that. You should not be having more than 100mg caffeine at age 13, which means 0.5 cans of Monster. I am worried about what 1.5 cans will do to your heart. Please do not do this. Thank you for asking.
Pair

i only drink the pipeline punch one because i love the taste lol
Yeah, taste is constantly the #1 reason people pick the energy drinks they do. But there are a few different punch flavors these days, no? I'm constantly surprised what flavors are coming out. @caffeineman1 has a good channel for that - you might find a few other punch ones to try if/when you want something new

1 can per Day Sorry for my english 😂
@@nycdramaalert5875 ok phew! Yeah, in terms of the caffeine content, it's fine to have one can of Monster a day. It's like 1.5 cups of coffee. It's the sugar that's going to harm your health. The American Heart Association says adults should limit sugars to 36 grams a day. That's hard for a lot of people to abide by because sugar is in everything. But yeah, the caffeine, guarana, B-vitamins, etc. All of that is fine to have 1 can per day, just watch your sugar. 💚
I'm so addicted to monster energy drinks I buy so many of them I have had up to 95 cans
Mangos
I love mangos too! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment!
i once had 3 16oz monsters within like 6 hours. one of the scariest moments in my life.
Is it okay to drink energy drinks whilst on adhd medications?
Sorry but I don't know!
she forgot to say if u drink to much then u start hearing voices& seeing things i drink 2 zero sugar monster energy every day after another really fast & I get those side effects there nothing to joke about
ive been drinking like 3-4 original monster a day for like 3 years. Will my health decline if I continue this? 20yo
It's not a good idea to have more than 2 cans of Monster a day. Also, yes - you're going to develop a caffeine tolerance for sure, but mostly that amount of sugar is not good. DYK having a large dose of sugar and caffeine can make you more tired than caffeine alone? www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0149763418309175?via%3Dihub
Honestly if you can cut down to 2 cans max or even 1 can most days and 2 cans only on the worst-of-the-worst days. I hope that helps - thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
@@GreenEyedGuide thank you so much for replying, i hope all is well!
If I am to have Monster maybe 3 times a week, each on different days, is that okay?
That should be fine. The caffeine content of a 16 oz can of Monster means you can have 3 cans a week and be fine. The most important thing is that you pay attention to your body. If you're having trouble sleeping or if you feel any nausea or Jitters, it may be a sign you need to drink a little bit less caffeine. Thank you so much for watching and commenting and sharing. I appreciate your support of my work!
@@GreenEyedGuide hmmm I drink it at like 9pm or later so I think that’s my fault for not sleeping. But I drink earlier in day I sleep grand. I get happy and some energy but no jitters etc. :)
@MATT CYPRESS yes, totally agree with you here!
Is it fine that I had one in my life and I’m twelve
Just one? Yeah, but I'd recommend waiting til 16 before you have any more. And even then, please don't have more than 100mg. CaffeineInformer.com has a huge database of caffeine amounts if you're not sure how much caffeine is in your drink.
I only drink Red Bull in Jaeger bombs.
Energy drinks and tea?
Fun Fact- Did you know that Monster Rehab was among the top 10 selling Ready To Drink Tea beverages according to sales and marketing research firm IRI?
I drink 250 ml each day, is that ok?
400 mg is the max an adult can have in 1 day. For minors, it's 100 mg. But everyone has different caffeine sensitivity (genetic) and tolerance (built over time of getting used to caffeine). In other words, technically it's safe but you should try to drink caffeine based on how tired you are, some days you should have less, other days, more. And watch the sugar in these drinks.
Is it possible to drink those every day?
It depends on what you're drinking. Drinking (one) Bang every is way different than drinking (one) Red Bull a day. The caffeine content makes a huge difference in your overall health. Plus some energy drinks like Redline and others in the preworkout space have risky ingredients like Yohimbe. I have an "Energy Drink Report Card" pdf that characterizes which drinks are better options for drinking every day. If you're interested, you can find that at ebook.greeneyedguide.com/energydrinkreportcard
Nah everyone has one mate I need a reply bruh
I drink 3 energy drinks in a day
Thanks for commenting! The health implications of that (drinking 3 per day) depend on which drink (meaning caffeine content and other ingredients) and your age, your sensitivity to caffeine, and other health conditions (like high blood pressure, anxiety, diabetes etc.) In other words, this might work for you but not everyone. The important thing is you listen to your body and follow what works for you. And what's frustrating is how this "gray area" is so missing from a lot of blanket "energy drinks are bad" videos. Thus, I appreciate you watching and commenting! Thanks for supporting my work.
i drink monster cuz i’m always tired and without it i can’t stay awake. is that bad????? help? lmao
Well it depends how many you drink a day. CaffeineInformer.com has a cool calculator to see how many will "kill you" but basically you can have like 2 (16oz) cans a day and be ok. Not great, but probably not lethal... if you need help cutting back, I have this ebook you might like (free) at ebook.greeneyedguide.com/caffeinelevel Good luck! Thanks for watching and commenting and liking!
@@GreenEyedGuide omw you were right lol that website really does tell you many energy drinks will "kill you" hahahahaahaha
I drink 1 energy drink a day Monday through Friday because I go to the gym
What's your favorite? Do you usually stick with the same thing or switch it up based on your workouts?
@@GreenEyedGuide I drink bang. I haven't been drinking anything else
@@davidp3535 I see. Well if it works for you, and you're happy, great. Bang is a pretty strong energy drink, caffeine-wise. It's 75% of the caffeine you can have in one day before the risk of side effects outweighs caffeine's benefits.
Love it! And your pretty so it makes it that much greater 🤣
Im 15 i drink energy drink rarley is that bad?
Thanks for asking! If you're 15 then you can safely have up to 100mg caffeine per day, total. There are plenty of energy drinks that can give you that energy boost without unhealthy levels of caffeine or sugar. Monster isn't one of those, but actually 1 can of Sugarfree Red Bull will be safe. Also Marquis energy drink. And Sparkling Ice+Caffeine. And LIFEAID's FocusAid. Those are all good options. I've got my favorites on my "Energy Drink Report Card" at GreenEyedGuide.com/freebies
Would you say drinking a monster a day isnt good for me?
The scientific opinion is that having no more than 400mg caffeine per day is safe for healthy adults. That means 1 Monster a day should be fine, but please listen to your body. In other words, sometimes you just need sleep, or a mental break if it's burnout or stress that's got you feeling tired. I hope that helps! Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
@@GreenEyedGuide alright I’m going to bed gn
I drink monster every day and feel fine :) and other drinks to I never drink water and I am 20yrs old
Yes! It's like I said in the video. 1 a day should be fine based on the Caffeine Content in Monster. Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate your support of my work 💚

So I’m 29 and honestly I’ve been drinking 3 or 4 monsters a day for prolly 10 years... prolly gonna die now right?
I mean, not right this second,... Honestly it sounds like you've developed a tolerance for caffeine where it takes 4 cans to feel anything. You could also have a genetic insensitivity where your body is super efficient at processing caffeine. The best advice I can give it to try not to have 4 cans every SINGLE day. Like maybe 1 can some days. 2 cans on stressful days. 4 cans for the worst of the worst days. This is how I've stayed healthy while drinking energy drinks since 2003. It's biochemistry. It's food science. And most of all, it's a Proportionate Response system.
PS- If you're looking for alternatives to Monster that you can drink 3-4 cans a day and not have as much of the other ingredients in your body, I've got an Energy Drink Report Card you can check out at ebook.greeneyedguide.com/energydrinkreportcard
One monster per day and am I fine? :)
Apples
Chest pain, uncontrollable muscle movement, LBM 😬
