i don;t know about monster energy, but i drink red bull quite alot which has lots of cafine and sugar it makes you more awake and hyper, the negative effect is its speeds up your heart rate and you can od if you drink too much, but i've never really had any noticable bad effects when i go out i normally drink 4 or 5 pints of larger before moving on to about about 6 double vodka redbulls

i sometimes take pro plus too which is basically cafine pills

I drink red bull all the time. I'm such a fucking burn-out who often can't catch sleep at night, so some days I wouldnt survive without my dosis of taurine.

Yeah, my bad, I got it mixed up with Guarana. Now that shit is like 3 times more potent than caffeine.

Taurine actually isn't too bad, it just enhances caffeine.

I used to drink a lot of energy drinks, but I don't anymore unless I'm at a bar or club.  I never did like Monster tho, but it's cool that it comes in tall cans.  Pimp Juice is actually pretty good too.

Red Bull is illegal in Norway.  :D
Never heard of Monster, we drink Battery or Energy.

Why is it illegal?
Title: Re: About monster energy drink

Why is it illegal?

Because of the Taurin, (it's actually classified as a drug) and also because of the high dose of Caffeine, it's illegal to have more than 160ML Caffeine per liter, Red Bull have twice the amount. The Taurin + Caffeine is what makes people addicted to it, they could release a "Norway edition" without Taurin and with 160ML Caffeine, but they know that it wouldn't have the same impact as regular Red Bull without the addictive stuff.

Battery, Dark Dog and Magic contains 150 milligram Caffeine, the same as Coca Cola.
Caffeine is actually a poison, 3 gram is a lethal dose, (some sources say it's more), many people are not aware of this.

Red Bull just became legal this past year in Canada.  They have to put special warnings on the can.  There used to be posters up on the streets of people who sell red bull that they smuggled in from the states.  And some places sold it in brown glass bottles from Thailand, lol.

That's funny, who wants an energy drink with the same caffeine as Coke? Might as well have a Mountain Dew.

i always thought red-bulls are addictive... they have that bite to them that i seem to crave as soon as i start drinking it, kinda like a nicotine hit...

I don't know about that, but I do think it's horrible for you and a crutch.  People centuries ago didn't need that shit to get by, you didn't see Joe Lous or Muhammad Ali knocking motherfuckers out hyped up on Red Bull, it's just a soft drug people are selling you into believing will help you.  You don't need it, it's useless and it probably causes more harm than good.
