A woman is claiming that her husband's habit of "excessive energy drink consumption" caused him to suffer the brain hemorrhage that ultimately cost him part of his skull....

Brianna wrote that her husband had suffered a brain hemorrhage, and says doctors blamed it on “excessive energy drink consumption” after running a toxicology screen and ruling out drugs.

I though this sounded fishy. Doctors blame it on “excessive” energy drinks. How many is that?

I think that brings it into clearer focus.

On the bright side, the Clintons have now reported that Vince Foster simply drank too many energy drinks.

energy drinks as a whole are largely unhealthy - they hyper stimulate parts of the brain which then effects the body. Fake stimulation is not good, hard on adrenals and all sorts of parts of the body over time.

I love coffee. Two and sometimes three cups a day. The risk is worth it.

My pot is a 12 cup but I can actually get nearly 14 into it. One full pot first thing in the morning is just enough grease to help get the gears rolling.

coffee doesn’t have the same effect as energy drink combinations or potency. Not that you feel such energy but the effect it has on your insides.

Like comparing repeatedly jumping off 2 normal height steps or repeatedly jumping from 2 stories off the ground.

I used to drink up to 6 cups coffee a day in my teens/early 20’s until I realized how addicted i was and how it was messing with my waking, sleeping, moods. I didn’t even consider what else it was screwing up inside until I got older and and started learning about taking care of my body because it’s the only one I got. And how others on here pointed out we are personally responsible for what goes into us and the results it triggers. Thats why I hate this obamacare crap everyone entitled to coverage. Some people repeatedly abuse their bodies with harmful food and beverage etc and cause their own health crisis. Why should we all have to pay for their repeated selfish choices?

I do feel badly for this man, whatever the reason. He seems young and likely was not considering the bodily effects of his choices.

If that’s him in the picture he lost a lot more than just “part of his skull”.

50+ million of them voted for Hillary.

I can honestly say I’ve never consumed an energy drink and never had the urge to do so.
