I downed a regular sized monster energy drink in about 45 seconds today and last weak I downed a BFC monster in about 20 min. Is this a bad thing for my health?

They can be bad for your kidneys and bladder, b/c they are full of sugar and sodium. Be sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day when you drink them, so that you don't wind up w/ a kidney infection or stone, or a bladder/urinary tract infection.
Also, the sugar in those drinks -or ANY sodas- can rot your teeth faster than any other drinks, even very acidic fruit juices. Be sure to brush your teeth frequently, and drinking the water will help keep your mouth clean when you aren't able to brush.

Energy drinks are absuloutly horrid, but I'm not saying one a week hurts. Just please don't chug down 3 Red Bulls like that one guy. There was an entire article where a man died from chuging 3 red bulls, running, and then dying because his heart was overloaded. So the occasional energy drink is fine, but its all crap inside.

Probably just like everything else that is suppost to be healthy is turning out the opposite,
Best to down a regular sized glass of water instead and save your money.

There's quite a bit of sugar in those drinks. I guess it depends how active you are. I wouldn't recommend downing one every night before you sleep.

Those aren't the best thing in the world to drink, but as long as you don't go overboard and drink several in a row or anything you should be fine.

i recently read that 400 mg of caffeine in a day can send some people into caffeine poisoning, which may be fatal. one is prob. ok, but you shouldn't do it too much.

I have read that it is possible to OD on caffeine, but drinking one can of it will not harm you.

except for the fact that you have a lot of energy, who knows?
I've downed 3 red bulls in 1 minute before and it was AWESOME!
