The ephedra is the number one no no. All those things that give you that fun little kick make your heart race... which can lead to heart problems in the future. Plus, look at the baseball players who dropped dead of a heart attack from drinking energy drinks, then playing sports. Poof! Dead. The 5 Hour Energy drink will give you similar results, but it's not as dangerous as those Rockstars. I mean, every once in a while is fine, but don't do it on a daily basis. You don't wanna drop dead, do you? Then again, I drink one to two cups of coffee every single day. I've been doing that for 20 years and I haven't dropped dead yet.... Just be careful and pay attention to what your body tells you. Getting the "jitters" is a bad sign. So, if those energy drinks make you jittery, then you definitely need to cut WAY back. Yes.

I have a lot of friends that drink them like alcoholics. Too much of anything is bad for you. Having one like once a week probably wouldn't be a bad idea. Probably.
