the problem with energy drinks is that they will make you fat. They have a ton of calories and sugar. 5 hour energy has nothing more than a crap load of b vitamins. They both work.

funny story.....
my daughters boyfriend swears by the 5 hour thing. The late afternoon of their prom he realized he did not have his "5hour thingy" (because ya know prom night is a night that you DO NOT sleep.)
He starts worrying that he did not have his "5 hour drink" and his buddy had one.................the BF's mom and I both say in unison "just share it and it will be a 2 1/2 energy drink" (imagine the looks we got)
My daughter claims to like Monsters. (personally they smell and taste like bad cough medicine) but they are full of sugar. ewww. She claims the "5 hour" thingy does not show any difference in the BF. AND she says Monsters don't really do anything either........
I dunno.....mind over matter????? hmmmmmmm.....

When I work overnights doing a 12 hour shift... I'll have my supper here in a minute and crack a monster -- and I'll sip on it until about 5am before its gone so it literally takes me 5 hours to drink. Does it give me energy? Who knows -- not really the reason I drink it. I could care less about the sugars (blessed with thin build) but I enjoy the drink itself. Just wish I could get Citrus Boo Koo here locally as those are REALLY tasty.

So do cokes.
In college I was a monster drinker, never did 5 hour energy. Now that I'm out, I pretty much just do coffee. That being said, I could drink a monster and pass out. Caffeine does weird things to me. Sometimes it keeps me up, but if I'm sleepy, I'm sleepy, and there is nothing anything can do to stop it.
