The Actual Caffeine Content of Energy Drinks (tested by Consumer Reports)

Normal ones are 215 mg

Ah ok thanks.

Edit: I am dumb, missed the normals in the list there.

I went 3 months without any caffeine (and a serious lack of sugar)… after a week or so your body really breaks it’s addiction from caffeine. After 3 months, I went and bought a large coffee with 4 shots of espresso… I drank it and felt uncomfortably energetic.

I’ll have a shot of espresso every morning to get me moving, but throughout the day I only drink water… only time I’ll drink a Red Bull is during a long drive… sugar loading>>>falling asleep at the wheel.

decaf 5 hour energy sounds like it couldn’t even work and is a 100% rippoff.

yep. “oh, if i’m tired at work, i just drink red bull and eat nerds.”

i’ve been taking a singl 250mg pill of caffeine in the morning and a single 250mg half hour prior to workout (10 hrs later)
i feel like shit in the morning but you don’t notice it for the working out part.

other than that i drink nothing with caffeine

You would be amazed at the number of kids I see come into school in the morning with these drinks. And I know many of them aren’t eating breakfast before school, hence the drink to wake them up after rolling out of bed and getting to school. I have definitely seen some bring 2 cans in, one for breakfast and one at lunch, which may not even be 4 hours later.

This is my one guilty pleasure of this list, it’s so good! I try not to drink caffeinated drinks often, maybe a every other week I’ll have a pop. Besides that, an Amp every month or so as a treat lol.

Anyone ever try Provigil? Caffeine doesn’t have squat.

I did learn however, that I’ve been drinking out of cans wrong for years however.

If you ever see these at a gas station, try them.

I have never felt so cracked out in my entire life.

Cocaine energy drink. Pretty sure it has like 300mg of caffeine and is the same size can as a red bull

Anyone who loves energy drinks should probably try adult ADHD meds like vyvanse. Way…way better, and covered by insurance!

subscribed. I drink 2 cups of coffee daily…

not big on red bull, … i do love mountain dew and dr pepper though.

Monster > Red Bull. That is all.

Being healthy > monster/redbull/heroine/crack

Monster and Red Bull do nothing for me. I’ve consumed Monster and fallen asleep on the couch right after finishing it. But, I usually drink 1 of the Absolute Zeros or Ultra Zeros a day as I like the taste. I don’t know how anyone can drink the green Monsters-way to sugary

I would use redbull etc to give me a boost during the day.

I decided to cut caffeine out of my life and start sleeping properly and now I have way more energy

Sometimes healthy just isn’t an option.

Just tried V8 V-Fusion Energy Mango. Taste like sunny D, 8 oz, 50 calories and 80 mg of caffine.
