Mike Tyson - "Black power" energy drink from Tesco is the drink for me!

Oh yes I picked up some Black Power not long ago, just for the hilarity of the can. Surprisingly it didn't taste too bad, had a dark taste that made it feel much more manly and ear rippingly good.

On another note, what do people think about kids drinking energy drinks? When I look around this neighbourhood I see piles of empty energy drink cans and its the young kids (10-14) going in to the newsagents and buying them. Is this contributing to anti-social behaviour?

When I was an apprentice at a college I would occasionally buy a 35p energy drink from the college shop, but one day they stopped stocking Monster or the cheap ones, apparently because teachers had complained it made the students unruly and agitated, but this was in the 16+ group so I found it ridiculous that they were simply no longer stocked.

Thats honestly way too much and I cant believe it either.

You only need to consume 1.5-2 litres of water a day, and this includes the water found in your food.

Well at least thats a lot healthier than over diluting your body with 8 litres of water a day, if that was actually serious.

Please tell me you didn't just order one can? it's great that we get free postage, but abusing it will end up ruining it for the rest of us.
 
Didn't Panorama do an episode on energy drinks and the outcome was that they did bugger all and a big con?
Obviously I'm talking about when it comes to Athletes.
 
i got a protien shake bottle and every hour or two i drink 700ml of water, I work a lot and sweat a lot so too much water isnt going to kill you :P, 8 litres is a overstatement, id say 5 litres max lol :P

Sure you can. It's called Water Intoxication. I think it ordinarily only happens if you drink it in a short time period though.
 
That Steven segal energy drink does sound pretty horrible. If I read that article right they don't even contain caffeine?

I've ordered a can of OcUk energy drink with my new PSU. Hope it's not as bad as that :eek::D.
 
So what actually is the OEM of this?

Lucozade does actually have some science behind it, but yeah the Monster/Relentless stuff I reckon is just bottled calories with added caffeine!

They aren't marketed as sports drinks, more for truck drivers and factory workers.
