With the current craze in ways to find energy there have been countless supplements to give you a boost... then the crash. With that said, do any of you drink/take anything for a boost? Monster, Rockstar, Red Bull, 6 hour energy, pick your poison.

Nah, I don't drink any of those energy drinks 'cause they're bad for kids or something. I do eat chocolate, which gives me some sort of energy.
'It's been a prevalent notion. Fallen sparks. Fragments of vessels broken at the Creation. And someday, somehow, before the end, a gathering back to home. A messenger from the Kingdom, arriving at the last moment. But I tell you there is no such message, no such home -- only the millions of last moments . . . nothing more. Our history is an aggregate of last moments.'

I don't drink energy drinks. I'm hyper on my own, without the boost. :>
I'm very hyper even without ANYTHING. But I drink energy drinks for a reason *Points to next quote and reply to it*

I always have a little Red Bull before a test (as long as there isn't another test after that one). I have a tendency to spontaneously go to sleep in the middle of test-taking.
Same here. I don't know why, but I always end up sleeping so I started drinking Java Monsters before and during a test.

I've tried that 6 hour energy stuff, I don;t like the tang, all the other energy drink don't affect me anyway except to make me sleepy earlier.
Being that I have EADHD in my medical history, I never want to be that hyper again. so I stay away from energy drinks. Mountain Dew or vault are enough thanks.

I drank Powerade pretty much everyday for a year, and then I found a deal in GTM on gatorade and stocked up for that summer. So I've been "living" off of energy/hydration drinks for quite a while now. However, seeing as I've drank the two for so long, I have definitely noticed the crash factor. If I have a powerade at school, I need to take a nap when I get home.

Otherwise, I just eat food when I'm tired. It almost always helps.

I don't drink energy drinks ever. I hate the taste, I don't believe that they work and I just find the whole thing pathetic. it reminds me of how everybody wastes their money buying bottled waters its pathetic. Especially where I live because the water here is beautiful.

Coffee is for noobs. I use pure caffeine powder from the interwebz.. it's a white powder.. my flatmate was a bit suspicious.. <_<

Like 0.1g (1/16 of a teaspoon) is equal to a cup of coffee.
3 of those makes you pwn at any sport. (Increased heart rate, better vision, feel massively energetic & you think faster)
4 of those makes you hyper.
12 of those makes you freaking insane.
15 and you're likely to be wake up in hospital.
20+ causes a heart attack. lol.

I don't recommend it. But it's great fun all the same, when used sensibly.
Ad hominem is for n00bs. Make good points.

I drink coffee every now and then, but that's more to enjoy the flavor of it rather than for an energy boost. I used to drink energy drinks years ago, but I've sustained myself on water now, that or a random sports drink every now and then.

With those effects you just listed, I can't imagine why he would think that...

I don't drink coffee. The smell hurts my nose anyway.

I don't believe that energy drinks are totally good for you, but I have them as snacks. I usually drink Gatorade, as it's packed in my lunch, but sometimes Powerade or So-Be. (if that counts) Haven't really tried Red Bull. I tried Vault once or twice.

I drink gatorade, powerade, and coffee if those could ever count.

Now I don't drink those monster whatevers but for her work my mom uses one for work, and says it works quite well, but I can' put my finger on the name, I think it's 6 hour energy, not fully sure. Though yeah, works for her. *shrugs*

Well, I don't really drink energy drinks nowadays. Tea and any soft drink do the trick, though I also seem to have alot of energy besides that anyways. XD.

I'll just stick to my water and tea, thanks. XD I've never liked how energy drinks and coffee taste, and I doubt I ever will. Bleh.

I usually get my energy from sleeping and eating chocolate healthy foods, anyway. And my mom and I go to a nearby track almost every single day, so that keeps us in good enough shape. I don't normally get tired until later on in the evening, when I'm ready for bed. :x

Aside from the local soda company's soda (which actually could also mean Coca-Cola), the only "energy drink" that I consume is Powerade. I particularly enjoy the strawberry lemonade flavor.

Gatorade is too heavy, and not as watered down as Powerade, so I don't like it. And those energy drinks like Monster, Red Bull, and other kinds are too full of caffeine, and my family has a history of heart conditions. Not to mention that they taste badly.

No energy drinks for me. If I don't like coffee or tea or even stuff like Mountian Dew that has caffeine in it, what makes you think that I'll like this stuff? D: I really don't want to try it. I can stay awake on my own, even without caffeine. I'm just braindead, that's all 8D;;
