I've been drinking Rockstars once a day for about 3 months now (i cant help it, there to good :D) and I was wander if it really that bad for you. My biology teacher told me its extremely bad for you but i dont think its that bad. Im not sleep deprived or anything. The only negative effect i get from them is i crash from them like 2-3 hours later and people say your supposed to crash 8 hours later.

    Yes and no. Too much of a good thing is not always good. Everything in moderation.

    The problem with energy drinks is that they contain so many different chemicals that amp you up. Besides the sugar, there is lots of caffeine, carnitine, taurine, etc., that speed up your metabolism and give you energy. But, they can be very dangerous for people who are prone to heart problems, like arrhythmia (especially accelerated heart rates), or panic attacks.

    Another long-term problem is that taking a lot of stimulants like that over a long period of time and finally quitting results in weight gain, similar to quitting smoking. This is because your natural metabolism gets all out of whack from the excessive stimulants (and nicotine is a stimulant). So, even if you go on a diet, your body doesn't metabolize the food you eat as effectively as before, and you start to gain weight. The same thing happens when people who regularly use meth or coke stop using it. They just balloon up and get fatter than they did before they started the drugs.

    If you drink too many of them in a day they are bad. The limit per day or monster energy is 3 one time I drank 10 monsters in like 6 hours. The only thing I felt was my chest felt really heavy about 2 hours after.

    that is what I were given from an editorial I study. i in my opinion attempt no longer to really drink to a lot carbonated stuff because that's not sturdy for you anyhow. With sixty 2 grams of sugar in the usually happening double-length can, you may besides be ingesting chocolate Rice Krispies. human beings could basically devour about 40 grams of sugar an afternoon. blended with the single hundred sixty milligrams of caffeine, it may properly be a short restoration, in spite of the indisputable fact that it gained’t keep up you by the day.
