lo-carb monster energy drinks

[Spooby]

Was just reading the ingredients on the one I'm drinking, thought I'd give it a try for my new caffeine source. (Don't like staining my teeth with coffee)

I was told that I should use taurine to combat cramps on cycle, as I had bad ones, especially in my ribs, during my last tren cycle.

Each 473ml can, has 380mg if sodium, but sodium comes AFTER taurine on the ingredient list. There must easily be 450+mg of taurine in each one.

Low sugar, plenty of niacin and taurine, alittle bit of B-vitamins... I'm game!
Gonna buy a whole case of these.

Thought I'd post a thread here about them.

I avoid things with a laundry list of ingredients I cant pronounce
Ingredients in Monster Lo-Carb
CARBONATED WATER, GLUCOSE, CITRIC ACID, NATURAL FLAVORS, TAURINE, SODIUM CITRATE, COLOR ADDED, PANAX GINSENG ROOT EXTRACT, CAFFEINE, SORBIC ACID, SUCRALOSE, BENZOIC ACID, L-CARNITINE, NIACINAMIDE, ACESULFAME POTASSIUM, SODIUM CHLORIDE, GLUCURONOLACTONE, INOSITOL, GUARANA SEED EXTRACT, PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE, RIBOFLAVIN, MALTODEXTRIN, CYANOCOBALAMIN

why not just get a bottle of 500mg Taurine tabs for about the same cost of 2 of those drinks? Without the sugar? Then you can just get caffeine tabs..

I just like having something cold/hot to drink in the mornings along with water... and trust me, not being able to pronounce a chemical doesn't make dangerous. What do you think dihydrogen monoxide is? what do you think pyridoxine hydrochloride is?

dihydrogen monoxide fucks up my bladder lol.
Touche.

But still as a rule in general I do think it's always best to avoid highly processed foods and drinks if it all possible. Im not a fan of artificial sweeteners either but sounds like you know what you're doing. For what it's worth I know a guy that crushes like 2 every morning and hes not dead yet....just fat

 

[Spooby]

Lol! Does he drink the regular ones? Those things have like 60g's of sugar. Two a day... fuck

no the lo-carb Im pretty sure...arent they like white(ish) with like light blue?

 

[Spooby]

Yeah. These won't make you fat though... he must be a couch potato and his diet sucks

 

[GrizzlyMint]

I mean if it works for you, I am just not a fan of the sugar regardless of the amount. Black coffee for me

I used to slam monsters, sugar free, red white and blue cans.
But then I found out that Rockstar has 240mg of caffeine as opposed to the measly 160 in monster.
Plus Rockstar is 2 for $3 and monster is usually 2 for $4.

Oh and if you drink monster, you worship satan.
BRB with the link to the nutso who believes that.....

 

[Leancuisine]

I don't want to start a religious debate....
Just Watch this for a good laugh.

 

[Leancuisine]

Bottoms up and the devil laughs fellas!!

But Rockstar is sugar free too... most of those are. Hell even quik trip gas stations have their own sugar free zero calorie energy drink, 2 for $2.50.
Race Trac has something similar called Left Hook for the same price.

Attached are my go tos

Eh.. I'm a skeptic/atheist. I've had plenty of debates with people from various religions. Quite frankly I'm just glad we grewe up in this modern, secular society. If this were the dark ages I'd be tortured and killed by these very same people had we lived in those ignorant, violent times. have you seen that joshua feurstein dude? that fucker is a domestic terrorist by definition. Should be locked up with his weapons confiscated. Sociopathic prick

Never heard of him. From personal experience God's are just an excuse for people to slaughter other people.
I would like to think there are blue or green female aliens out there, scavenging the galaxy looking for a strapping young lad like myself to procreate with

[pumpingiron22]

I use to slang that stuff when I worked at a soda company.
Stuff is bad news I don't know why but it fucks up your adrenal glands and was giving me sleep apena and sleep issues. I do pre work out and it does not do that to me Just my 2€

 

[Fear of the Dark]

Messed me up too. I drank a minimum of 2 a day 5 days a week for over a year. Eventually had a weak bladder and felt dehydrated regardless of how much water i drank. Sleep problems as well even though I wouldn't drink one after 1pm. My creatinine levels were high.

I had to quit. I was obviously addicted. Bladder is fine, sleeping better, feel hydrated. Feel much better.

Be careful with them drinks!
