If anybody needed an article or a news report to realize that an energy drink is far from "healthy" then I pity them.

Just take a quick glance at the ingredient list: Sugar. Caffeine. High-fructose corn syrup.

This is the case with most off the shelf beverages and processed foods. Remember: The majority of manufacturers do not care about your well-being or health. Toxic ingredients are so abundant, that eating "healthy" in the 21st century is a massive under-taking. Green tea might be a better and somewhat healthier substitute to any energy drink addicts that are reading this.
