    Default Energy drinks

    What are the effects on the body when using energy drinks?
    Energy shakes?
    Protein bars?

    Thanks

    Hi

    The site isn't actually live yet, so you won't get any answers yet.

    Not entirely sure how you even found it ?

    Could you let me know was it form a random search or something?

    Cheers

    Simon

    That is going to depend on what the ingredients are. "Energy" is a fuzzy sort of buzzword that can mean different things...one can, for example, get energy from various sugars, get "energy" from stimulants such as caffeine, or even from certain adaptogenic compounds. Different combinations of ingredients will yield different effects.

    You also need to consider the effects in combination with your diet. If the energy drink in question is high in sugar, for example, it could contribute to body fat if total calories are sufficiently high. And even if in weight maintenance mode, you have to ask yourself if the calories you're consuming are displacing cals that could be coming from more nutritious sources.

    IMHO, the vast majority of protein bars are simply value-added candy. Some are better than others, but you need to look carefully at the ingredients to make valid comparisons. A bar that uses whey protein or casein as a primary source of protein is a better quality bar than one that's based on hydrolyzed collagen and soy, for example.

    Hi guys,,,
    First of all a lot depend on your ultimate goal that you want to achieve weight gain,loss or muscle strength.Then in addition to this while buying any of the drink do read the essential ingredients over it.It shall give you a good idea whether the drink is good for you or not.
    Most of the drinks provide essential nutrients,vitamins etc that are essentially required by the body for growth.

    Energy drink may give you power and potential to make you fresh and energetic but on the other hand it may affect and try to drink sugar free energy drinks and natural energy drinks, its more helpful as compared to artificial drinks.
