Can you get "drunk" from a non-alcoholic beverage?

Question

Not meaning O'Doulls because there is a little bit of alcohol in that. I mean like a juice, an energy drink, a soda, anything like that.

Answer 1

you get drunk from alcohol....

no alcohol=no drunk

Answer 2

Nooooooo... unless someone slipped you a mickey.

Answer 3

You wont get "drunk" but the amount of sugar in those energy drinks is enough to make you feel like a crack fiend.

You dont feel lazy or sluggish like when you've had too many screwdrivers, but you definitely feel super-hero-ish after 1 or 2 Red Bulls...

Answer 4

Yes. or at least you'll feel like it. My mom was a bartender and she would make the alcoholic drinks silly young woman ordered without alcohol because it was so funny when they would start acting drunk and stuff just because they THOUGHT they had alcohol

Answer 5

No. Even if something started to ferment then it would have alcohol in it.

Now people do have different reactions to different things. Some need quite a bit of caffeine to get going and some are real jumpy and jittery with just the slightest amount. Maybe a particular ingredient may have an affect on you or someone else that it does not have on others but that does not mean you are drunk.

Too much caffeine will have the opposite effect. Caffeine dehydrates. If you are dehydrated you will feel tired and lethargic. It is our body's way of trying to keep from over working and overheating. Try 2 glasses of water and watch the improvement if this happens.

Answer 6

I sometimes think i'm drunk when I drink alot of pop (Soda)

Answer 7

Too much caffeine can give you a headache.

Answer 8

Nope not at all.

Answer 9

No.

Answer 10

You can get a buzz from too much sugar or caffine, but usually it is not judgement-imparing.

Answer 11

Actually you can! *gasp "no way!"*. But not exactly and not from the contents of the drink. This happens to some athletes from time to time. When you drink too much water, you can start to get tired, lose feeling in parts of your body and it can effect your thinking, but no, you do not get dizzy or woozy.
