Energy drinks get a bad reputation for no reason

Energy drinks like Monster, Red Bull and Rockstar, have a bed reputation for no reason.

They can help you wake up in the morning and start your day off on the right foot.

For avid energy drinkers, it becomes part of your daily routine: Wake up, get dressed, brush your hair, brush your teeth, get your Monster on.

Granted part of the reason people say that energy drinks are bad for you is because they are addicting. Well I have news for you, so are coffee, tea and sunflower seeds.

No one is running around saying “Don’t drink tea! It’s bad for you because it is addicting.”

Even if you are just an occasional energy drinker, it can give you a great little pick me up anytime though out your day.

Energy drinks are not the most healthful thing in the world, but no one drinks them because they are a good source for your daily vitamins.

Although they do have plenty of B12.

People need to eat a balanced diet and not blame energy drinks for any dietary needs that they are lacking.

Another reason that energy drinks might take heat for are the “overdoses” that have happened within that past few months.

Right on the cans there is a warning sign that tells you how many ounces you should consume within a 24-hour period.

If you are drinking an energy drink you are capable of reading the maximum amount you should be drinking.

The same reason McDonalds and other places that sell hot beverages now put “Caution: Hot contents” or something of the sort, on the lids.

If you want to drink energy drinks then drink them. If not, more for the rest of us.
