PUT THAT ENERGY DRINK DOWN!!!
Over the past
few years the fastest growing segment in the food and beverage industry has
been in the energy drink sector. Energy drinks are normally a combination of
caffeine and sugar, usually administered in the form of a shot all the way to
30 plus ounces. Most people indulging in theses drinks are children, teens, and
young adults in the bar crowd and club scene. With 2 out of 3 children being
overweight or obese, the last thing these children need is a jolt of caffeine
and a ton of sugar in a can.
In a University of California study of 500
college students, 51%had drank an energy drink within the past 2 weeks and an
astonishing 21% had reported having heart palpitations.
The average caffeine in
an energy drink is 50-500mg of caffeine!! Due to the fact that the FDA treats
these drinks as “supplements” and not as beverages, there is no regulated
maximum amount of caffeine per drink.
GET READY FOR THIS!!!
(FDA caffeine
limit on a carbonated beverage is 75mg)
One
Red Bull = the amount of caffeine in 3 cans of Coca-Cola
AND the sugar of 2
LARGE pieces of Cheesecake!
One
RockStar = the amount of caffeine in 5 cans of Coca-Cola
AND the sugar of 3
LARGE pieces of Cheesecake!
The
REAL MONSTER in all the statistics is…
One
Monster = the amount of caffeine in 7 cans of Coca-Cola
AND the sugar of 4
LARGE pieces of Cheesecake!
WANT REAL ENERGY?

Seriously, you will actually increase
your energy by NOT drinking energy drinks… because your sleep patterns
will improve!

drinking more water and avoiding SUGARS! That’s the real formula for ENERGY!!!
