[blackie_2k5]

Just seen this on fb, thought I'd share after recalling jay was it? Drinks about ten cans of coke day lol!

[jones91]

Most of the bags of sugar are actually bigger than the can of drink it's linked too lol

Also just think some people drink multiple cans of some of that stuff too.... imagine the amount of shit they're consuming!

[liamo90]

wonder how much sugar is in the 4 cans of monster/relentless I drink every night for work....... that cant be good :/

[griff_106]

Jesus I'd hate to think what 10 cans of coke a day would do to me after seeing that... :panic:

[mlawlan69]

10 cans of coke a day?!?!? Are you joking?

People wonder why they are bloody fat, this is that exact reason.

[Bedford126]

You cant put the sugars in perspective like that. If you have one glass or fresh orange juice there is 50% sugars but they are fructose so all natural. Its how the body digests and processes it that matters.

[iMystikz]

I would never drink more than 3 cans of coke in a day! Just for the fact I'd be feeling absolutely rubbish after them.

[ed-bradley]

I've drank 4 litres of Coke today.. Come at me Sugar br0

[Saxoladlesta]

Can't see how people can drink coke,just tastes like sugar to me.

[L33h]

Thats quite a bit. Didnt think thered be that much in the apple juice!

[Gashman]

This is the reason we have a fat average above most country's, too much sugar in everything and people with no education towards proper diet and nutrition

[Saxoladlesta]

Fast forward 50 years 80% of the population will be obese and will be draining the NHS of more resources

Reason why i drink shitloads of water daily. Don't touch the shit.

If its from concentrate mate, you might aswell have a pepsi.

Even not from concentrate isnt hugely beneficial after 250 ml or so.

A lot of fruits goodness comes from the actual pulp.

They add a fuck load of sugar to from concentrate shit.

Smiling as I sip my water x

Yeah i knew it had sugar in but i didnt expect that much with it being pure apple juice lol.

I cut out most fizzy drinks now and only drink water.... unless im hungover and i drink loads of rockstar haha

yeah its just a school project to represent the equivilents.. the sugar in the actual drinks will be more "concentrated" for want of a better word

but its still an eye opener.. you still are consuming that much sugar in one form or another

just goes to show.. im back at the gym now, and used to have a 2 cans of coke with my breakfast (which wasnt healthy anyway)

and by swapping to a protein shake and some oat like i used to.. with better eating throughout the day.. ive already lost about 3/4" off my waist in just 3 weeks lol :fcuk:

body must have been struggling like fuck to keep my weight down (and losing as ive put a fair bit timber on in last year or two lol)

[stupotvtr]

My boss (chef) worked out with me a few months back when I was addicted to the stuff that I was having like 5kg of sugar a week (maybe 2kg can't remember) from redbull, relentless etc

Edit: a month not a week:oops:

[Steelies]

That is a bit shocking really.

I don't really drink many fizzy drinks nowadays, I just drink far too much tea and coffee at work, I do drink water as well though.

I do actually drink between 6 - 10 cans of Coca Cola a day. I'm anything but fat! :homme:

I'd discuss this with your dentist. A good friend was like this, he was told at the age of 30 that if he continued to do so he would need false teeth at 40. The shit in the volumes of coke he drank we're effectively eating away at the enamel. He's a guy from a good family, cleans his teeth etc. but just liked drinking coke.

Dentists are fucking expensive..... So something to consider.

I know it isn't good for you but lets face it, nothing is so it would seem.

[Ryan]

Teeth are fucking expensive to fix, hence me suggesting speak to one and get this checked.

I hammered sugar based drinks as an athlete (2/3 bottles of lucozade in a session) and having to currently start to pay for some damage done to my teeth it's worth rethinking things.

[Liamm]

I've turned to diet coke if I have disaronno, other than that I've been on water for the last month, sugar free volvic touch of strawberry is good, my little girl also likes it so that's better than her having juice. I can drink 2litres or more in a day easily now, I feel better for it, never dehydrated or anything

[devilsadvocate]

So water is better for you than other drinks.....shocking.

They need to show a picture of rotting teeth to show what too much sugar can do as well.

I usually drink Tea (no sugar) at work or water from the machine.
At home, its maybe one pint of squash an evening and a 1l bottle of coke a week.

one of my cousins and his 2 bottles a day habit burnt his guts, his teeth are now badly rotten, tramp smile like. Good luck with the ten cans a day habit, you may feel all good about it because "you're not fat". Keep up with the diet and come back in 5 years, I doubt you'll be fine and dandy.

10 cans a day = eating a 2 pound bag of sugar every 10 days and rinse it with acid.
1 bag of crisps a day = drinking a 5L bottle of oil every 6 months.


No wonder I see dumb elephants everywhere.

Diet coke is just as bad.

I would probably drink normal coke before diet coke.

If you drink Sugar Free Monster (the pretty blue/purple can) then its got none in it.

And its 0 calories.

Win.

Along with your chips you have at every meal, i wouldn't be surprised if you had diabetes.

[Steph_at_constella]

L-carnitine, Ginseng, Caffiene and all the other things they put in energy drinks, Stimulants (both liquid and tablet form) and supplements. All the ingredients are legal. And Monster energys other brand of drinks are famous for being incredibly healthy :)


I can show you an ingredient list if you really want me too.


Also, everything is bad foryou if you have too much of it. Get over your shitty let me google that link. Also actually read the links that come up.... http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Is_Monster_Energy_Drink_bad_for_you

Sunlight, coffee, alcohol, cigarettes, cheese, butter, chocolate.

All bad and all good at the same time.

So sorry about the "shitty" link. Yours reads like it was written by some monster PR staff. Find out for yourself how aspartame breaks down in your body and you may have to reconsider that formaldehyde isn't actually that great for your health. Not that I care to be honest, but labelling it as "and it's 0% calorie, win" is ever so slightly optimistic.

Halfway through that article it says aspartame is safe.
I'm not too fussed about having a premature baby either. And everything gives you cancer nowadays, even watching TV, so again not fussed haha. Everything's full of shit tbh, disaronno and water from now on!

[WheresMeNuts]

I've never liked soft drinks or even alcohol,but do like my Tea with 2 sugars.

[Manu]

Monster is good for you, and 0% calories, win. So how comes it tastes like chemicals anyway. Ah just forget that, I'm miserable again while I should just smile, forget about it all and drink some :)


So just had a cuppa, no sugar, 0% calories, win. You reckon I should just stop that old miserable crap and switch to monster?

[Steph_at_constella]

At what point did i say it was good for you?

I think i just said it wasnt bad for you.......Or do we just not like to be told to shut up being a know it all :) I personally dont drink energy drinks as the amount of caffiene is too high for my own tolerances, of which every persons is different. And what one persons body can cope with, others cant. You surely know all this so i dont need to remind you about individual tolerances.

Im assuming you grow all your own food with chemical free products and somehow purify your own water???

nah that's allright, I have a fruit and veg store and a butchers. I do occasionally buy some bottled water and I do indeed have a tap filter as the water is a little hard around here. Makes for a better cuppa.

And you did not say "good for you" indeed. I said that.

There we go then. Putting words in someones mouth and hoping they dont spot them is a rookie mistake.

Im glad you have a couple of little stores, im sure to always purchase at our local ones for a better quality cut of meat. And our local butcher thinks the sun shines out my arse. ( someone in this world has got to)

[Giraffe]

I think it's somewhere in London, but it must be an area with a street where literally everything that could happen on the road, happens, has a plethora of local shops that sell pretty much everything, from games consoles to fruit and veg and meat... Just sounds like a pretty ideal place to live to be honest.

[Giraffe]

surely some of those arnt right!?

Only 7 more, you're very nearly there!

EDIT: Crikey, managed to post twice in the time it took me to type that!

[Gabbastard]

Im kinda with Manu; Id rather eat something with sugar - which the body is designed to deal with - in it than something which tastes sweet but that sweetness comes from random chemicals. Fuck that.

[0rang3peel]

Fuck me.

Your joking right? Youd be better off smoking ten a day.

smoking 10 a day is not actually that bad lol.

think my brother smokes about 40 a day.

I love an ice cold can of coke and realise how totally terrible it is, one a day max for me and only as a treat :cool:

At the end of the day it breaks down in your body as embalmers fluid,m and I have no idea why people would carry on drinking it after knowing that fact. Fuck knows what it does if you mix it with something else, or if you have a prescription etc. How the FDA covered it all up in the early eighties (see donald rumsfeld - bushes chum- pushed it all forward for $$$) also sums up nicely why it should not be allowed for public consumption. As bad if not worse than the beef racehorse burgers.
