Energy Drinks

Duracell in a can

Advantages: Energising, Tasty, Easy to down
Disadvantages: Can be damaging, Can prevent sleep, Can be costly

...picked up a can of Red Bull, something I hadn't actually tried before, as a product I knew was going to be needed to help give me a wake up call and having gone through a whole load of energy drinks I thought I might try what seems to be the most talked about one. I've tried isotonic drinks like Powerade, and despite being great for longer term replenishment and energising (often not realising it's helped until too late) they really weren't going ...
...with automated messaging service, so Red Bull seemed as good as any. So Red Bull huh? Yeah I must have been one of the very few to have never tried the almost overly famous blue and silver canned drink that has been taking the world by storm in recent years. The drink was being sold at a reduced price (not sure exact price however) in B & M and seems to come ridiculously highly rated by people. Although it seems funny the ones that seem to rant ...

Review of Red Bull Energy Drink

Lucozade ORIGINAL?!!

Advantages: Can't think of any
Disadvantages: Just fizzy pop

...why this stuff is call Lucozade Original. When I was younger, Lucozade came in a glass bottle with little dimples around the neck, and it was wrapped in yellow cellophane. The actual lucozade was more viscous than it is now - syrupy. The product today is just watery fizzy pop. I've contacted SCB, and they tell me I can still buy Lucozade 'Original', but I can't find it anywhere. I think the fact that I ask them for 'original' confuses them, and they ...

Review of Lucozade Original Energy

Rockstar Energy Drink! Party like a rockstar.

Advantages: Generous sizing, gives you a BOOST of energy and tasty.
Disadvantages: Possibly harmful in copious amounts.

Rockstar Energy Drink! Good for a pick me up when one is feeling a little bit low in the old energy banks and generally quite a nice drink. However some of you may be put off by the slight hitch that energy drinks have a slight tendency to be a bit unhealthy for you. Rockstar is distributed by the Coca Cola company and is marketed on the premise it allows you to 'party like a rockstar' and the novelty large beercan style sizes of the energy drink ...
...between Rockstar and alcholic beverages that they seem to market and 'party like a rockstar' sounds alot like they're suggesting Rockstar can have drug-like qualities. As with all energy drinks Rockstar has that sort of fizzy, exotic fruity taste. Quite a sharp taste but one that I expect is a damn sight nice than the actual rather sinisterly named ingredients, but its a taste once your half way through the can you begin to appreciate and is actually ...

Review of Rockstar Energy Drink

Has the edge on its competitors

Advantages: Great taste, price and quality
Disadvantages: None

...and will have the distinct Lucozade logos on them. It is well packaged and is easy to carry around in your gym bag. It has a useful cap too. Rather than having a screw top it has one that you just flick up or down and suck on. This makes it easier to swallow especially if your on the go, running and don't have chance to stop and screw the to back on. It makes it useful to carry on a jog round the park or on the running machine. Although it comes ...
...there will be no let up in the drinks profile. The most important aspect however is it delivers in terms or price, quality and health benefits. There is little doubt therefore that Lucozade deserves gold medal on all 3 fronts. Summary: Perfect for athletes or as a pick up ...

Review of Lucozade Sport

powerade the one that is good for you

Advantages: simple to read great tast gives back what daily activities take away.
Disadvantages: Not enough flavors

...youth of our country. With Powerade in my opinion you have something other then aspertain to boost the natural energy that young people shoud have. It is a low cost way of giving the body back the nutriants that it needs and quenshes the thirst that other enery drinks don't do. A burst of energy I honestly do not believe there is such a thing without drugs or some hidden subsatance that cannot be good for you. In my opinion Powerade is the best energy ...
