Are they really so bad for you? This one doesn't even have sugar. It's just caffeine and vitamins.

I'm on the OMAD diet - One Monster A Day. And for me, it's the classic white tallboy right there.

These would be perfect if they included l-theanine. The caffeine can be a bit much on its own

Wouldn't recommend drinking anything synthetic in the first place but it could definitely be alot worse desu.

it has artificial sweeteners which gives some people an upset stomach

A coworker gave me one of these the other day when the coffee maker wasn't working, and I was pleasantly surprised. I normally don't like drinks with artificial sweetener, but this one was actually good, I'd choose to drink it again over most other energy drinks.

I had one of these and my stomach started hurting. There's no way these things are good for you.

It's all artificial. Even the vitamins. Eat an orange if you want vitamins.

My local walmart used to have a big section but they cut it down alot. They still have 12 packs but nowhere near the variety and they have some of those slim cans as well, which I bought by accident once because I didnt know they were a thing. Dont know why they are doing it. I know they dont care about health and I imagine energy drinks sale well. Amazon has different types in stock but I never tried ordering from there. You would think you could just order from monster themselves

The main one it uses is ertythritol, which unlike other sugar alcohols like xylitol, it's easily absorbed so doesn't cause gastro issues. It's also an antioxidant and fights cavity-causing bacteria.

I keep hearing it's so unhealthy and causes your heart to stop when you hit 40, yet no scientific proof or breakdown of what's in them that causes to indirectly kill yourself

i bought a 24 pack on amaZOG and its day 3 and today ive had 4 or 5, honestly without the sugar they lose their effect and it's extremely easy to build a tolerance.

I will say this, the taste is fine and ive yet to see any problems, running into work now 6 is the max.
