Answer 3

Many of them contain caffeine, which in addition to being a stimulant, is also a diuretic.

Answer 4

Energy drinks have caffeine. Caffeine takes more water to process than a caffeinated beverage contains. This means it acts as a diaretic and dehydrats us. The water used to process it is then immediately excreted. So an 8 ounce serving of an energy drink may very well cause you to loose 12 - 16 ounces of water. The higher the caffeine content the more water you will loose.

Answer 5

Does your energy drink have caffeine in it?  Caffeine is a known diuretic and therefore if you ingest it you will have to urinate more frequently.
