They're junk food, but they aren't as bad as cheeseburgers.

Energy drinks are not necessarily bad for you, but they shouldn't be seen as "natural alternatives" either. Some of the claims they make like "improved performance and concentration" can be misleading. If you think of them as highly-caffeinated drinks, you'll have a more accurate picture of what they are and how they affect you. You wouldn't use Mountain Dew as a sports drink.

I don't think they're bad for you. Just in small quantities. I don't think they have lots of bad chemicals which many people think but I know red bull and rockstar have lots of calories and sugar which is definitely bad for your waistline. THere are some like XS energy drink that don't have caffeine, no sugar and very few calories. I like those better.

That is alot of caffeine, I suggest cutting back. If you continue you'll become addicted and start wanting more which is over-all bad. A certain amount of caffeine can kill you. I think about 6+ redbulls can seriously harm you, and one full throttle is basically 2 redbulls.

You're probably not going to get too much taller, or at least that's what people say happens when you binge on caffeine. My experience with red bull is bad though, my friend became seriously addicted to it.

Yes they are bad if you're drinking 92 of them a day. Anything under 92 is A-OK

They can be bad if you drink too many. They raise your blood pressure, that much caffeine could give you a heart attack.

They are not bad for you. However, you are only 13. You don't need such drinks. If you drink it just for fun, then it is fine. Just don't overuse it.
