Are monster energy drinks really as unhealthy for you as they make them out to be?

    That's why I go for the sugar free ones, plus I don't care what other people say, its my body, so if I want to poison it with artificial sweeteners, I will!

    I don't think they are unhealthy... But I drink sugar free

    Monster Ultra zeros to be exact

    I just saw that they have a Monster Muscle...It's a protein shake, in the vein of muscle milk, I guess. Same price in the convenience store where I went to buy a muscle milk. I just wanted some kind of protein packed treat for myself. Grabbed the monster muscle and in one 15.5 oz can, there are 200 calories, but 25 grams of protein and 500 mg of calcium or something like that. Those numbers were better than the ones on the muscle milk bottles, so I took it. Gave me a nice little energy boost for my cardio day today.

    I agree but I still drink SF Redbull sometimes or just a Redbull.
