  • Dr. can drinking a 24fl oz (710 mL) monster without eating every other day for a 14 year old be dangerous?.

  • @RIBARRA59 The effects of high doses of Caffeine can vary from person to person. As long as you don't experience racing heart beat, or become anxious or nervous you should be fine.

  • Dr. I have a very important question to you, I am 21 years old male and I always been very healthly until I started to drink a can of Monster each day for about 1 year, A few months ago I was diagnosed with high blood pressure... it is because I used to drink monster?

  • @ProviderMR Caffiene can produce High Blood Pressure in people who are senstive. You may wish to stop and measure your blood pressure in a couple weeks. There are many causes of Hypertension, at your age it may be hereditary. Please call my office if you would like to speak further. Dr Whiting

  • is it ok to drink 1 or 2 redbulls 3 or 4 times a week

  • HA!!!!!!! yeah... they ARE dangerous if you use them like he says! i have at absolute most... i don't know, maybe 2 or 3 a week? they don't cause me problems. other than being tired after it wears off.

  • O BUT ALCOHOL AND SMOKING IS JUST GREAT FOR YOU!!!

  • @foolishmask

    well alcohol is definetly even worse for blood pressure, especially vodka or stuff like that.

    One Monster in a day never cause any problems, sometimes when I took 2 in a short period of time the side effects may occur, but you most definetly shouldnt drink more than 2 a day. When I tried 3 in a day I couldnt sleep for 40 hours being constantly nervous with those side effects and very high blood pressure / heartbeat. So in the end its all a question of quantity.

  • I drink about 2 energy drinks a week. I drink A CUP coffee maybe once every 2 weeks. Caffeine used in MODERATION, just like alcohol, is not dangerous. Drinking 3 full pots of black coffee a day with 10 energy drinks...well we will leave that up to the Darwin Awards to pass judgement on that.

  • Guys.. I drank one full monster and half a nos am I a goner?

  • My sister bought me an energy drink yesterday ... Tastes like shit xD

  • If anyone has heard of worX energy shot (or Monster Hitman), I take one shot of those every day during a cardio workout (or general workout) as it's a much better stimulant to creatine. It allows you to push through your workout further and better.

    Will this have any dangerous side effects in the near future? Because I definitely don't want to be dead during a hard workout.

  • @crazystarf Whether or not these energy drinks will have any lasting negative effects depends on each persons Cardio Vascular fitness. Exercise and energy drinks both raise heart rate. In a healthy person this may not produce any side effects. If there are hidden Cardio Vascular problems they could surface through over stimulation.

  • " Are you craving for a chemical that eats holes in your brain? Is your life boring and you are in need of a death from a sudden heart attack ? Do you like spending money on fixing cavities in you mouth and would love to join the growing number of people with cardiovascular diseases? CALL NOW !!!

  • yeak well i still drink them and a little scientist who thinks he a big shot aint gonna make me stop. anywase its not like i drink 2 a day or anything

  • i almost died, by drinking Monster and RedBull at the same time

  • i always have anxiety problems when i drink energy drinks and i still keep drinking them lol

  • I hate peolpe who say that your going to kill yourself if you drink one can of monster. Its not going to kill you, unless your the retard who drinks 6 a day, like my dumb ass friend who had to go to the hospital after he drank six 24oz cans of monster. His heart was beating like super fast and he was all shaking, and he had a super high blood sugar.

  • Thanks for the info doc

  • 1 can of monster energy is not overdose!

    the only thing you have to think about when you are drinking a energy drink is that your body has enough vitamins and water!

  • where did you study and were do you work i am using this information for school

  • Many studies may be found by going to the national library of medicine website and searching effects of caffeine and sugar and caffeine. Our research center charges a fee for research, but you can easily do it yourself.

  • i drink 6-10 a day

  • consume 1 cup or 2 a day of coffee period

  • Sir, how can we attain full-spectrum nutrition from natural food products? just having a balanced diet doesn't cut it for me. And I wanna get off my daily Redbull.

  • Hey, this is Dr. Sonny. There are so many teas, like green tea, white tea, those claim to be extremely healthy. But they do contain a lot of Caffeine as well. And I guess you Sir, drink a lot of Coffee as well.

    I personally still don't like Energy drinks, because I feel really bad after drinking them, but that is due to the other bad ingredients nobody talks about. Either way, each to their own, but this Video is pointless. Like watching a Video about Coffee.

  • are there any side affects like straight away, as in if you drink a lot once? and not a lot constantly?

  • As a regular energy drink user, I think this is a great article exposing the risks to high levels of caffeine use. This guy is clearly not in favor of their use, but does not try to "crucify" energy drinks with some skewed study. I have a few more tips though for those interested: Caffeine is a dehydrant. If you use them to gain edge in athletics, they WILL improve stamina, but drink extra water to avoid dehydration. Also note there are lots of sugar free options to eliminate the calorie intake.

  • Great observation, point taken, thanks for the comment. Dr Whiting

  • @healthyinformation I had 3 erevs in 20 minutes and almost had a heart attack.So after that i stopped caffein and I kept getting headaches ,I was always sore and i couldn't do anything right. Now one eRev makes my heart rate get uncomfortable, I've been drinking 8 ounce venoms on the daily lately, is it possible to get my tolerance back/ i know a guy that had a siezure (5 times the caffien he should have in his system) and his brother can drink 9 monsters a day now.

  • @Almosteasyese STOP DRINKING ENERGY DRINKS. just do it.

  • @guywithmac But theyze tasty :(

  • @Almosteasyese i know :( i miss them a little. but if you have even a hint of skepticism in you. You know in your gut these Edrinks are fucked.

  • @guywithmac true dat. I guesse you are right.

  • I drink an energy sometimes when I smoke some weed, makes the high really goooooooooooood.

  • yall need to read up on the ingredient Taurine before u claim that energy drinks are not bad..learn what you are putting in your body and where it comes from... Knowledge is power.. want a real energy drink without all the extra unhealthy stuff.. drink REV 3!

  • @yattbanks ugh goddamn thats nasty, why do they put that in drinks ew

  • ZZwwZZwwZZw Monster drink effect !!!

  • its true i got anexeity from this thats because i drank like 1-6 per day and there ok as long as you drink 1 every so often

  • we learned about this in school did u know one amp or energy drink is equal to 14 cans of soda omg wow i didnt know that

  • Well if u drink 1 or 2 every so often , then thats not bad. If u drink 3 or 4 a day then thats bad. Energy drinks arent bad. But if u drink alot of them then its bad.

  • Energy drink with NO Caffeine or Side Effects!!!

    ardysslifecom/levivepays

    

  • Energy drink with NO Caffeine or Side Effects!!!

  • i ve been drinking one a day for 4 years i feel fine im a adict but i feel fine i drink 12 cups of water 4 cups before and 8 after and i eat like a animal and i weigh 135 pounds and my hight is 5'10

  • i'm a health nut but i'm deployed in baghdad. i barely started drinking energy drinks. the reason being i wok graveyard fueling apaches, blackhawks, chinooks, hueys, and kiowas (all are helicopters, or "birds"). i would have to say that i hate drinking them, but the shift is a sunset to sunrise shift. either way grave yard is not good for your health. and i don't feel healthy working this shift and drinking these energy drinks. surely there's something i can do besides drink this crap

  • just recently 2 teens DIED from drinking 2 monster energy drinks. THUMBS UP SO EVERYONE CAN SEE WHAT THE DAMMAGE OF THESE ENERGY DRINKS DO!!!!!!!!!!

  • @8478275

    Mind posting a link or a reference to the people dieing from drinking monster?

    Also, just out of curiosity, why is your alias a seemingly random assortment of numbers?

  • @8478275 yes but do you know that every year on average coconuts kill over 100 people, but do you expect the governments to ban coconuts...?

  • Informative.

  • He should tell us about the danger of those damn vidya games...

  • Is it ironic that im drinking a monster right now? Lol

  • @deuceownzu by watching the video you're performing a self responsibility by increasing your awareness

  • im scared, i drink sometimes 1 to 2 rockstars every weekend and i have been for about 2 years, i have recently been experiencing extreme paranoia and appocaliptic feelings like the world is going to end any second

  • @snksbgstfn maybe it was acid

  • @snksbgstfn The world IS going to end any second........which just dont know which one til it does ;)

  • @snksbgstfn ahahah bro you sure youre only drinking energy drinks?

  • I've never tried Monster, but what's up with all the guys who have the stickers on their cars etc? I've seen guys driving trucks with like, 2-3 Monster energy drink stickers on there. It's not even that cool of a logo, lol

  • @TheUndert0ker Actually I think that the monster logo is one of the coolest logos ive seen and i think many will agree with me. And when you drink some you get addicted! Im actually drinking a monster right now lol :D you should try one

  • There has also been studies to prove that caffeine is actually very good at lowering risks for diabetes, Parkinson's, etc. I wouldn't say to overdose by any means but once a day or maybe even a couple times a day to drink a cup of coffee or some soda AIN'T GONNA KILL YA lol

  • Thumbs up if your drinking one right now

  • now I WANT ONE!

    

  • It's not the guy who has 1 can of Rockstar, it's the IDIOT who drinks 6 in a day!

    It's not the guy who has 1 shot of Jack Daniels who causes a wreck, it's the IDIOT who drinks 12 shots!

    It's not an ENERGY DRINK or an ALCOHOL problem!

    IT'S AN --->IDIOT<--- PROBLEM!

  • @johnlewisbrooks yep. It's the man that kills the man, not the means.

  • @johnlewisbrooks Excellently made point! I work with junior high students (still developing brains) who buy 2-5 of these a day and purposely chug them... I HATE the idiot problem.

  • @johnlewisbrooks:But listen,may I differ with you if you don't mind?Alcohol problem was never started by 10-20 drinks per day.It became an alcohol problem after some time.So a not that IDIOT problem can lead to an IDIOT's problem.Why go near it then???

    Might make sense to you.For me,it makes sense!

  • @IamNoSheeple71 Then it boils down to a person making the decision. Shall I ALLOW this to gain a strong foothold in my life?

    I'm sorry, but NO ONE forced a beer or an energy drink down anyones throat and caused them to become the way they are. If the person begins to develop a noticeable problem, he should seek professional help. If he doesn't, someone should report it.

  • Comment removed

  • @johnlewisbrooks buddy, actually about 1 or 2 a week of these energy drinks is not that bad. I don't think you can compare it with a shot of jack daniels, which i think 1 shot of alcohol is healthy.

  • @johnlewisbrooks Thank you!!! Energy drinks are not that bad when used responsibly.

  • He looks like he could use an energy drink

  • Comment removed

  • Boring, there is not enough explosions and girls in this video. Time for a mango and orange Rockstar!

  • all i heard was RandomAppleKid go to the store and buy a monster energy and chug it !

  • ok i want good awnser on this one... im 15 and i drink one 16oz energy drink a week... so far i havent noticed any difference in my helth (exept one time i drank a diet amp and my teeth started chattering, probably wasent the jitters cause it was like 30 degrees and i was wearing shorts) but other than that no difference in my health is this to often that there will be harmful side effects later on in my life?

  • @americanpaintball I dont think so. I drink a Monster every day and Im 16 and fine.

  • Wal-Mart coffee, I imagine is similar to crack. 2 cups of that stuff and I can't sit still or shut the fuck up for the entire day. :) it really made me sick too, drinkin' that stuff on an empty stomach..Bad idea! I vomited it all up later that night. I'll never do that again.

  • i drink 4 redbulls and 6 5 hour engergy drinks a day and no bad side effects at all

  • i drink about 2 a day only during a 5 day work week ...i dont seem to want to drink them sat and sun ....i am thinking its because i hate my job ....its boring as hell

  • this guy is talking about retards that take 10 cans a day but if you take it once a week or so while you are doing any kind of exercise it isnt going to act negatively on your body

  • @kingdmguties123495 i drink 1 a day with some coffee, i take multivitamins tho so i think the only thing that has happened to me is the niacin flush haha

  • this guy is talking like 3mph he needs a monster

  • Very informative. I've also heard that one should Not consumer energy drinks before physical activity or exercising. Perhaps it puts too much strain on the heart(?)

  • i never let myself have more than one a day and no more than prob 3-4 a week.thats still quiet a bit though isnt it?but i do all kinds of sports like wrestling, football, soccer, track, and weighlifting so ill be fine

  • Why do even bother? These morons are still going to guzzle these ''energy drinks'' down like it is water. plus, the ill-informed parents buy it simply because the kid wants or sees his friends drinking it.

  • @gongoozler18 you mean like those guys who get like 4 hours of sleep a night and they try to make up for it with monster?

  • @PJxBuchwild Yeah, especially them. but, in general, it is a waste of money because it contain negligible amounts of vitamins and close to 8 teaspoons of sugar. And don't think the ''diet' energy drinks are any better, if there ones on the markets.

  • @gongoozler18 actually i think diet is worse because they put more caffine and other ingredients to make up for the sugar rush you arnt getting atleast thats what i heard

  • im drinking energy drinks right now : / am i addicted?

  • Actually these energy drinks contain taurine,parax ginseng no mention of caffeine?

  • @AFANARCHIST i guess he was lucky? just because you smoke doesent mean ur 100 percent to have developed lung cancer.

  • @nickandlanceguitar Yeah well i'll take my chances intead of living like a fuckin vegetal and at the end of my life thinking ,,cool i'm 100 years old and i lived like a fuckin flower,, nice...

  • Dr. Whightny said nothing about rockstar energy. All energy drinks I drink are always sugerfree and low carb.

  • I seriously need help I've becoming addicted LOL

  • i used to drink monster quite regularly when i was in high school. I loved it at first, but soon it made me want to puke. The taste became crappy to me and it triggers my gag reflex for some reason. Never drinking that crap again.

  • ...you know, theres so many; the redbulls, the MARNSHTERVZ!!!

  • ok guys...i ended up in the hospital because of a panic attack as a result...but MODERATION is ok...what i mean by that is one a week...i drank one a day for 3 years...i aksed for it...but once a week...your ok...

  • dude i just drink energy drinks only 1 reason to exercise

  • @buchamyai thats a mistake

  • @HolyShahizit why do u say that?

  • @buchamyai cafiene weakens the muscles and all that jazz, and it damages the heart:P

  • I just read an interesting article that strikes me as VERY alarming... 5 hour energy drinks apparently do not disclose the amount of caffine per serving due to industry secrets. Caffine is also a (DRUG) and last time I checked it's against the law to not post the amount of drugs one might be taking in. It should be a law for any company that puts drugs into their products to state the exact amount of everything in it.

  • This video makes me want to drink an energy drink.

  • Im sry, but im addicted to it. You should have said it before I tried Monster or Burn, :D

  • drinking a red bull now lol this goes in one ear and out the other.

  • caffine comes in a white powder and if it was indroduced to the wrld rite now then it would be illigale,,,, also i use to have one a day 4 bout 2 years , but now its like 3-4 a week now,

  • honestly i'm kind of laughing at all the people saying they are dangerously bad....

    the B vitamins ARE water soluble and get pissed out really fast, so they stocked up on B vitamins in them to counteract you losing them.

    the sugar part IS bad

    taurine is an amino acid, so you can't really say they are defficient in those either

    also, i believe it is impossible to overdose on caffeine, because almost everyday last summer i had 6-8 energy drinks a day, my most was a full 24 pack in 1 day

  • what happend to dr blacking

    

  • We don't just need full spectrum nutrition; we need a full night's sleep as well. Why bandaid a severe problem with the abuse of the drug caffeine with a nutritional supplement? How about cutting caffeine out completely, getting a full night's sleep, and eating a wide range of foods including lots of fruits, vegetables, nuts, and lean meats?

  • Caffeine is a hard core stimulant that most of the world seems to be very addicted to. It's evil and employers/corporations would love to see people suck down caffeine so they will be faster slaves. People naturally get tired and are not robots. Nothing replaces a beneficial 8 hour good night's rest! I would say that caffeine should be illegal because it is a drug that ultimately negatively affects people in the long run. ;-)

  • I NEED CAFFINE!!!

    I at least drink one nergy drink a day : )

    I'm beyond addicted and i get really hyper

    When my friend wants me to do something for her she says "If you do (whatever) I'll buy you a monster" and i do anything for a monster

  • I used to drink one a day simply because I was going through something traumatic and couldn't sleep at night. So every morning before school I would drink one then come home from school and crash. Soon I became addicted and if I didn't drink one every morning I was a mess. I've gotten myself off of them slowly but when I do drink one my body needs more. It really sucked being addicted.

  • this guy can suck it! their awsome!

  • Thank you Dr. Whiting.

    How does one wean off of such an addiction/dependency, and what will one expect during the detox?

    There needs to be a warning label, or it needs to be outlawed to sell this drink without a license. thank you!

    highschool teens drink these things all the time!

  • is it good if i drink one or two in month?

  • i am addicted 2 it

    its still better then drugs, isn't it?

  • @DeniseRulez No. My best friend got stomach cancer from drinking monster energy drink 4 times a week, he died when he was 30. Don't make the same mistake he did..

  • hey im 13 and i have about 2-3 a week is that alright... some of my mates have 2 a day??? is that alright

  • i probally only have a energy drink once every 6 months :\

  • what about guarana?

  • @australianpander Guarana is worse as it contains twice the amount of caffine you find in a coffee bean.

  • This was way over my head.

  • this help mabe i should cut down lolz i alwayes play better on cod on monster energy lolz

  • Boring...this guy is spewing nutritional information that could be found in a health article from 1978. If you use energy drinks, look for drinks with low amounts of sugar and drink plenty of water. Period. I just summed up this whole video in one sentence.

  • i have one everyday, is that bad?

  • 0:10  lmfaaoo

  • Parents need control over younger kids and thats fact. Energy drinks have taurine and ginseng in them and one or the other is an anti oxidant and anticarcenogenic which helps reduce the chance of cancer. My good friend and doc suggested monster to me as a way 2 increase my low sugar levels and for vitamins. Since then i became physically healthier

  • tyea thats why I stopped too many calorie .. coffee does the same shit sept its antioxidant..

  • hahahahhahai put 14 teaspoons of sugar in my tea

  • I tend to have energy drinks every day. I should cut down to many calories.

  • i drink 2 monsters a day and love them!1

  • Caffeine was first used as a pestiside. When bugs eat it, they die. It attacks their central nervous system. In large amounts, it will have the same effect on a human.

  • @MyGrassroots omg are you serious ... it all makes since to me now!!!!

    I

  • can you die from drinking too much energy drink because i drink alot of it and i mean alot and im getting worried now

  • @habzh stop it then...drink more plain water and eat healthy stuff rather than craving for energy drinks....everything that is taken in excess is unhealthy

  • .....The Next thing this Guy is going to tell you is that Crack is No Good for you ,....No Vitamin B in it!...lol!...

  • Informing, but you need to drink a Power drink just to make it to the end of this video...

  • @mrjamesb56

    wise.

  • 1 energy drink a week=not enough ^ ^

  • I LOVE ENERGY DRINKSSSSS

  • Monster is lik a druggg!! i need somee badly or i will dieee! i hve 2 have my daily monster!

  • @ItzMeBrittany i had the same prob...i was trinking 1 a day and my body took it as a NEED but when i passed close to an heart atack i just stoped then but im still recovering

  • 2gramms of caffeine is already enough to get a ride to the hospital.

    Yeah.

  • MONSTERRRRR

  • This is really valuable information. Dr. Whiting is the perfect name for a dentist. lol

  • I drink 100 and this is what happens. jghsgjsagjlshglkgig;krifhiongr­sgijinoinoigngrgghinhnroihn. Then I fall asleep

  • mmmm e-drinks, i drink lots of them too - to me.. much better taste than coffee, and great in the mornings, drink a few in the morning and all set for the day!

  • I have been drinking e-drinks for over 9 years (started at age 11 or so). For a while I kept increasing the amount and even drank 4-10 a day.. of some cheap rodeo e-drink (got over 1000 cans at 0.2€ a can). And I did not notice anything bad. I've always loved the highest caffeine drinks (cocaine energy drinks) because of the way they take away that nasty sleepy feeling in the mornings :)

    Long live e drinks, drink'em all!

  • Lol, give it a few more years....

  • DRINKIN MONSTER RIGHT NOW! :D

  • i loooove monsters! i use to drink them every morning before school but i stoped because i used to have hard crashes during school so now im on 5 hr energy :D but im still on the 5 hr. energys :D

  • @loydboy1 , Try Ritalin !...

  • @mrjamesb56 uh y

  • @Jaded92 haha drinking mad croc ;)

  • I would like to see you drink 20 monsters or rockstars.. Upload that video and i will definitely subscribe with as many accounts as i can.

  • This is incredibly true I didnt believe it untill he said panic attacks..

  • I am 16 and i drink at least 3 24oz monster energy drinks a week, not because it gives me energy (which it does) but because i like them. Is that very unhealthy?

  • Yes that is very unhealthy. It stops your growth prematurely...or slows down the growth at the very least. It may not matter to you now but down the road....

  • Will drinking one energy drink say a monster energy or a rockstar hurt u

  • Meh.. I still love energy drinks. I drink about 20 golden powers a day and every now and then some monsters/red bulls/burns.

  • bravo doc

  • Hey, you can catch Dr Whiting in a live lecture in Glendale California on Sept 19-Saturday and he will also be lecturing in Northern California Sept 23 thur 26. Call 1-800-440-2390 for details so you can attend.

  • Great points-

    Energy drinks- terribly misnamed, are one of the nastiest things one can put in the body. Ive read numerous articles on the subject, have written them as well, and occasionally speak about the topic.

    There is one that got introduced Sept 1st, 2009 , that is in a category of its own. I almost feel sorry for the general population that may never find out about this drink because it cannot be found in a grocery store.

    focusuponline with the com after it.

  • yeah i get shakes im worryed =-s i use to drink 4 cans of V aday

  • Just finished the finally review of my new Full Spectrum supplement, Check back soon for the release date.

  • It's amazing how adults know all the stories about energy drink dangers and deaths, yet they seem to have never heard about alchohol poisoning, drunk driving accidents, lung cancer from smoking, etc...

  • true

  • @HeadbangerFromHell99 Two wrongs do not make a right.

  • It's scary when you see kids drinking this as well as Starbucks. Remember when coffee was considered an adult beverage? These companies want every age grouped hopelessly addicted to their poisons.

  • I NEVER drink more than 3 energy drinks a day. I usually drink 1 or 2, but not every day, of cause. Only when I have money to buy one.

  • i love energy drinks, having one every now and then is no problem

  • good doctor-- i have taken one and it did not do me any good!!!!
