If Energy drinks are bad, why the heck is the market for it growing like crazy in this country ?

I don’t get it.

Won’t take long before Obama regulates the thing as a drug.

Because fatties in the office use them instead of coffee. They are not good for a sports drink before a heavy training session or a game, but are great for a situation like Yoassarian described, his ski racing, which is tough, but not severe physical exertion like a basketball game or triathlon.

The caffiene helps alertness, but is not great for the body when exerting.

Energy drinks are being hyped by slick marketing firms-so they sell well. For the life of me I don’t get the appeal-of course as they say in the car business-”there’s an ass for every seat”.
