If there was one fundamental flaw with common energy drinks it would be that they are dangerous if you overuse them. Now I know that is not saying very much because almost anything can be dangerous if it is overused; candy bars, sodas, cheeseburgers and yes even some vitamins. So what makes this general knowledge so important when applied to energy drinks? It is simple. Energy drinks are widely marketed to people who kind of need to overuse them. People that are constantly under high physical and mental strain and need that energy boost throughout the day. Construction workers, food servers, architects, athletes, you name the job and the odds are that someone there, probably many people, will be looking for a second wind in a can.
Most energy drinks are by no means "good" for you. But like so many other things in life if you moderate it and give your body a chance to process it the negative effects should be nothing but rumors to you. The day you go down the road of drinking unhealthy energy drinks 2 or 3 times a day however is the day you run the risk of becoming a statistic. Do not run the risk of hurting your health by consuming large amounts of these unhealthy sources of energy.
If you are looking for a healthy alternative that doesn't taste like motor oils the FRS energy system is the best place to start. FRS Energy Drink is the only energy drink endorsed by not only Lance Armstrong but other major athletes including Olympians. The fact that some Olympians stand by FRS energy should be a testament healthy characteristics seeing as Olympic competitors have been kicked out for using Tylenol.
Don't blame unknown ingredients in energy drinks such as Quercetin and Taurine. Many of these energy drinks though not commonly known are usually very natural. One of the main reasons that these ingredients have made it to the front of the can is because they are good for you. It is not the front of the can that you should be concerned with but rather the back. Unlike this drink many energy drinks rely on caffeine boosts. This is an unhealthy and unnatural way to deliver on their promise. What you are looking for is an energy "boost" not an energy "transfer", not a product that will increase energy now but leave you worse off afterwards.
