Question

Answer 1

yes because the caffeine will make ur heart beat really fast im 13 and i went to a store to get red bull and they wouldnt let me purchase it because of my age so i yelled at them and walked out

Answer 2

Yes!

All energy drinks are bad for you.

I know someone that recently had to be taken to the hospital E.R. after drinking one.

I could not believe the sodium content listed in the ingredients at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Monst...

8% of the RDA of sodium per 8 oz. serving and 3 servings per container. A total of 24% in one can!

Answer 3

to a certain degree yes, depending on the amount you drink. I have read that a single cup of coffee will increase the amount of beats your heart makes daily by 60 beats a day. Multiply that by 7 days of consumption you will have added at least 420 extra beats a week. The heart has been said to have a finite beat capacity in a lifetime, whether true or not i don't really know.

All energy drinks seem to have a combination of caffeine, Taurine, Guarana  and Gensing in them so in a sense your are tripling the effects a substance has on your body and could possibly stunt your growth.

Answer 4

yeah.
