People don't drink energetic drinks!
You can't even imagine what they contain - only chemicals and nothing natural. Besides, such drinks can't give you energy. This is advertising only.

Energetic drinks is a recent human invention, although their ingredients have been used for a long time for stimulating the nervous system. It's a real rescue for students so that they can prepare for exams, office workers who don't manage to do their job on time, fitness coaches etc.

Of all the products that give us energy, energy drinks on the basis of taurine are known for the large amount of energy it provides a relatively short time. Such a beverage containing ingredients such as: 1. Taurine is an amino acid normally produced and our body, especially in muscle, brain, heart and blood. A person weighing 70 kg is naturally about 70 g of taurine distributed throughout the body, that is 70 times more taurine than a box of Energy Drink, which contains 1,000 mg. Sometimes, under stress or exercise, urine human body a greater quantity of taurine and possible so that this substance not be sufficiently synthesized. In this case we use the consumption of energy drinks to offset the deficit of taurine.
What everyone may not know is that taurine in energy drinks is a synthetic substance produced by pharmaceutical companies and is not derived from animal products, such as the bull. The benefits of cattle in the body: regulate temperature when it is too hot or too cold, reduce stress, maximize performance of the heart, helps to detoxify the body.

3.Caffeine in Energy Drink find a box of about 80 mg of caffeine. Contain as much caffeine a cup of coffee. Cola contains 35 mg to a pack of 350 ml and about 47 mg cola light box. In moderate amounts, caffeine has beneficial effects on the body, stimulating because of its psychological and physiological functions, improves reaction speed and vigilance.

Re: Energetic drinks - Steven - 09-30-2009
Carbohydrate Energy Drink contains a box of 27 grams of sugar (sucrose and glucose), with an energy of 112.5 kcal. Sucrose is a sugar used by the body in a slow quantity and, before being used as an energy source, should be split into glucose and fructose. Sucrose gives energy when glycogen reserves were exhausted already. Glucose is a sugar used by the body quickly, which means it can be used immediately as energy source. Glucose helps to keep muscle glycogen reserves, which normally must be used.
Inositol is also a carbohydrate, and produced by the body from glucose, which helps in detoxification process. Vitamins, especially B complex vitamins are necessary for the proper functioning of the body and improve mental performance.

Therefore, in sports activities demanding Energy Drink be consumed 30 minutes before you start, following that then drink water or soft drinks.
Energy drinks in any way affect our health?
From the research of scientists and doctors in the field of toxicology, internal medicine and psychology, sports doctors, the health authorities, who examined the ingredients energy drinks, they have found harmless. Like caffeine, it is addictive, but were only stimulating effect. Some consumers use energy drinks in combination with alcohol. This is not recommended by the manufacturers but because they are abolished the positive effects of energy drink: endurance, concentration and reaction speed, vigilance, emotional sound, stimulating metabolism and are feeling the negative effects of alcohol only.

Positive effects of energy drinks
Are some positive effects, the worse is that these drinks are often consumed on a cigarette!
- increase the power of concentration and reaction speed,
- the person will be more calm and patience,
- increase metabolism.
These effects can be acquired and drinking coffee or carbonated beverages, but also their effect will disappear and then you become lethargy, nervous and to overcome these feelings will eat again. Should be noted that compared to coffee, energy drinks are more harmful because of other artificial ingredients that make you explode energy. When it comes to content located as energy drinks are rich in vitamin B and amino acid taurine, but not bring more benefits than side effects triggered by other ingredients, such as: sugar and caffeine.

As far as I know, energetic drinks usually contain caffeine. Of course, it is not good for your body to use it in such quantities
RE: Energetic drinks - GooseWashington - 10-28-2020
Good evening! Please, do not drink energetic drinks even if they say they are one hundred percent natural. It is not true. They contain a lot of chemicals that can destroy your health and make you addicted to those drinks! Then people start to drink two or more bottles per day and they cannot stop. It is better (and even cheaper) to drink coffee. Now you can find a huge variety of coffee machines, e.g. at smartbattle.org. I use Cuisinart ss-10, it is very easy to use. Drink natural coffee, not chemical energetics!
