green smoothie - slam a handful of greens (collard, spinach etc.) into a blender and add water to get a green liquid going. then add fruit: 2 or 3 bananas, an apple and a pear or any combo of fruits you like.

I told you I wasn't crazy cakes.

I like 5 hour energy drinks, they're shot-sized and the crash isn't that hard. I wrote about 'em awhile ago - Five Hour Energy Drink

That 5 hour energy is horrible for you - read the ingredients.

Sucralose = liquid cancer.

^ How do you feel about Splenda? I get mixed info on it.

+1 for 5 hr energy. Half a bottle in the morning, literally you feel it within seconds, and you're alert/awake/ready for hours.. and they're right, no crash. Especially great when you're hungover and just need a quick boost to start the day.

NOS.... 2 of them a day... The cans have just shy of 250mg of caffeine

I heard they were real good for hangovers as well

Same. If lab rates are scared of the shit, I would stay away. All you guys drinking that 5 Hour Energy are going to die of pancreatic cancer within a year. Go with real sugar - that way you'll just get fat.

i drink the huge monsters. i know its fucking me up but its the only way i can focus

 

[Unarmed Gunman]

Rockstar, Red Bull and Full Throttle are the only energy drinks I know that use natural sugar (although they each have diet versions with the poison in it too). Rockstar has by far the most caffeine though.

 

[WritingSolution]

Rockstar makes me pass the hell out. I like the 32 ounce cans but mostly for the taste believe it or not.

Let me google that for you

Sucralose - Artificial Sweetener - Learn About Sucralose

don't really trust about.com, but anyways, all those retards who think splenda breaks down into chlorine just because a chlorine ion is bonded to the molecule are the same people who need to clean their colons.

Am I really the only one who's an espresso snob? Any office I'm in will always have a nespresso machine (though want to move to one of these to be able to use the new Illy capsules soon).

Little sugar (real/natural), you all can keep the chemicals eating your internal organs.

there is not one authoritative source that links sucralose to cancer, or proves that it is either carcinogenic or toxic.

in fact, the complete opposite is true.

quit spreading misinformation.

Just copying and pasting this from the "blow" thread cause I'm lazy like that. Still haven't tried it but really want to...

There's a very trendy energy drink out of the UK here in Europe called Pussy. Haven't tried it yet but it sounds really good. Way better than your typical Red Bull...

"It is made with a blend of fresh white grape juice from Southern Italy, pressed Mexican limes and lightly carbonated water. These are then mixed with Grenadilla and Lychee flavours, infused with six selected botanical herbs:

Milk Thistle, Guarana, Siberian Ginseng, Sarsaparilla, Schizandra, Ginkgo Biloba"

I might try to order a case of it for some serious testing.
