Hey! Just as a fyi any soda is acidic (ie: coke contains a pH level of about 2.5) which CAN be harmful to teeth in the long run by weakening the enamel and making your pearly whites not so white as well as lead to tooth decay and cavities! You know if you place a tooth in soda that after about a week it will be completely dissolved. Now if you decide to switch and it’s the caffeine that you’re going for, I’d suggest trying to switch with a high protein breakfast which will give you that same boost of energy needed to start your day…carnation instant breakfast is great, btw. If you’ve been doing this for a while and you decide to change it up, you will more than likely have withdrawal symptoms such as headaches or feeling drained, but it shouldn’t last too long, perhaps a week or less depending on how long you were dependant on it. Hope this helps!

Try diet sodas, juice or carbonated fruit drinks, like the cheap carbonated flavored waters. They're great. Also, I know it sounds stupid, but if you must drink sodas, drink through a straw. The problem with sodas and your teeth is that you take a big sip and all that sugar and syrup coats the teeth it comes in contact with, which lowers the PH in your mouth and makes your mouth a battleground for decay. Using a straw limits the number of teeth that are subjected to the sugary warriors.

There is alot of sugar in the monster drink along with a whole load of empty calories....You are better off eating protein then that mess and take Vitamin B6 and 12 you will have the same results without the bad calories and you will feel healthier too!

Energy drinks are full of sugar - so YES
They also overload your bloodstream with glucose - which is great if you're just about to run a marathon but not so good if you want to avoid diabetes and obesity.

It depends on the amount of sugar in your energy drink.
Those things aren't a really good idea anyhow, particularly if you are drinking them daily.

same as for soda - cavities. in fact soda those "high energy" drinks are the WORST things you can ingest. worse than candy or gum

i'm not a dentist, but these would be as bad as soda or worse as they contain high amounts of sugars... some of them very high...
