Why is it that teenagers are so addicted to energy drinks?

Question

I'm one of them, but I realized that it seems lots of kids my age are. Why?

And what do you think are the downsides to having an energy drink when you dont need it?

Answer 1

Bcoz they waste their energy a lot.no offense i mean it.

Answer 2

because they are still in an addolescent phase and its an evelutionary trait that dates back to the stone age, kids would be more atracted to the sweet plants because the bitter plants were poisonous and when they got older they could handle the poison

energy drinks are full of sugar

Answer 3

I like it because it gives me a rush and i'd rather be drinking that than doing drugs which is much worse.

Because like drugs it gives them a high aka Sugar and caffeine

Answer 5

To do more stuff in the day I guess.

Answer 6

I have no idea, however, I'm one of those teenagers too. I think it's just because of the way they taste.

Answer 7

I'm pretty sure it's a fad

Answer 8

I don't really like energy drinks cause it makes my chest hurts. Yea, I'm kinda weak with all that stuff they put in it to give you energy.  I guess it's the boost it gives you afterwards.  You just have so much energy.  It makes my chest hurts but once that is over, I feel pretty energized.  I hardly drink them though.  I rather stick with water.
