Daily Fit Tip: Go easy on the energy drinks

Posted on Jan 5th 2007 6:00AM by Rigel Celeste

In today's world of long days and all-too-often sleepless nights, many people have started relying on energy drinks like Red Bull and Rockstar to get through the day. Is this a good habit or a bad one? Although energy drinks aren't all bad, they're definitely not that good for you either. There are arguments going both ways for caffeine and for some of the herbal supplements, but the biggest problem is the sugar: a 16oz can of Rockstar has 260 calories! I don't know if the metabolism boost is gonna be enough to burn that off...

Forget the energy drink, for that much guilt I think I'd rather have a snickers bar.
