Yeah, Monster will kill me. That's why I drink it...

[-] moss@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 days ago

no it won't it'll just make you slightly less healthy

[-] Moc@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago

Water and/or unsweetened tea or coffee is pretty good.

[-] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 1 points 6 days ago

Or you could just put sugar in. Or drink better tea. I heard good tea doesn't even really need sugar.

Fuck it, good filtered coffee is good even without sugar, and with some sugar it's a damn treat with almost no calories

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 1 points 6 days ago

Stop gaslighting me.

[-] Toes@ani.social 42 points 1 week ago

If you're pounding back energy drinks on the regular, the type of sugar they use should be the least of your concerns.

[-] moss@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 1 week ago

I'm a pourover coffee kinda girl myself

[-] arisunz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 1 week ago

nuh uh i like my kidney stones :3

[-] seliaste@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

This is a common joke but I genuinely tried to find a link between energy drinks and kidney stones on google scholar and could just go as far as soda and acidic drinks being maybe a little worse.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 4 points 6 days ago

Kidney stones are definitely linked to dehydration and so are excess sugar and caffeine.

[-] arisunz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 6 days ago

nerd emoji

but also very good to know ty <3

[-] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 2 points 6 days ago

fun fact! If you're on Windows (or KDE) you can do Windows key + period to open an emoji menu.

[-] arisunz@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 5 days ago

L + ratio + windows pilled + bloat + i have Meta+period bound to rofimoji on i3wm it was just funnier to type "nerd emoji" :3

average :3ing Linux user

[-] latenightnoir@lemmy.world 3 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

Honestly, I'd be more worried about the metabolic accelerant effects, as well as the dehydration and the gastrointestinal irritation (the laxative effect isn't because it's a good solvent:)) ).

[-] desktop_user@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 week ago

is there even a sour patch kids flavored beverage that isn't an energy drink?

[-] sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 6 days ago
[-] megopie@lemmy.blahaj.zone 33 points 1 week ago

Can I PLEASE just get a bubbly drink with caffeine that is unsweetned. The canned coffee is all too expensive and most of that has sugar in it to.

Just give me a sparkling unsweetened tea with extra caffeine. Is that to much to ask?

[-] coffee_whatever@lemmy.world 6 points 6 days ago

Might be a bit hard for you to buy depending on where you live but YABU energy drink is just straight up carbonated Polish apple juice with caffeine. I drank a few different flavours they have and they are nice.

[-] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 2 points 5 days ago

Not to be that guy, but as someone who quit caffeine entirely, honestly it's kinda great not needing caffeine. I traded my daily coffee for water and now I just drink shitloads of water and it's honesty glorious. Waking up and just...going is amazing

Wanted to throw it out there because it seems not many people try to kick caffeine

[-] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 1 points 6 days ago

I actually think Lipton peach ice tea in 2lt packets have no sugar added, giving them a really mild flavor compared to their fruit juice like flavor in canned and 1lt forms

You can get caffenated water; I'm sure it would carbonate just as well as regular water.

[-] VeganCheesecake@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Dunno where you are, but ChariTea has a new sugar free mate. Mate based drinks in general tend to be at least less sweet than that energy drink stuff.

I personally usually just make coffee at home and take it with me, but I recognise that doesn't work for everyone.

[-] Todd_cross@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 week ago

Hiball energy seltzer is pretty good, but they stopped selling it near me.

[-] sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 6 days ago

Hiball is crack

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Bawls is just guarana and caffeine iirc.

Ed: hfcs in it now I guess, shame

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

just fucking buy caffeine at this point.

[-] rockstarmode@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Exactly. Home carbonated filtered water and anhydrous caffeine. Just make sure you have an accurate scale.

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago)

or don't and go wild ass berserk

[-] rockstarmode@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

Absolutely. You can buy caffeine by the kilo and incidentally it sort of looks like really stepped on coke.

But I'm not kidding about the accurate scale tho. I LOVE caffeine, but the last time I tried to eyeball 200mg I ended up feeling like I was going to die.

[-] azertyfun@sh.itjust.works 31 points 1 week ago

Ma'am, that is a 33 cl mixture of gas station sludge. It has no syrup, leaves, or apple juice. It is an amalgamation of the industrial output of several laboratories, distilled, mixed, powdered, re-liquefied, and ultimately inexorably joined in an unholy water chalice. God had no hand in the creation of this abhorrence. The fact that this terrible liquid exists proves that God is either impotent to alter His universe or ignorant to the horrors taking place in his kingdom. This prism of water is more than gas station sludge. It is a physical declaration of mankind's contempt for the natural order. It is hubris manifest.
We also have a higher glucose variety if you would prefer that.

[-] sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 6 days ago

Oh yeah, that's the one. I'll take a case.

[-] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 4 points 6 days ago

I am so glad the Lemmy hivemind understood that reference because when I upvoted earlier today it was at 0 lmao

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 17 points 1 week ago
[-] sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 13 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

We're all fucked. Whether it's sugary or sugar-free, if your brain likes it it's probably bad for you.

[-] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 4 points 5 days ago

I mostly drink water and generally love me a good tall glass of ice cold water. Does that mean my water habit will kill me at some point?

[-] sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 5 days ago
[-] Trainguyrom@reddthat.com 3 points 5 days ago

I shall live forever then!

[-] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 week ago

Counterpoint: butt stuff

[-] JayObey711@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Sounds like you haven't tried enough shit. If you don't like something healthy just eat it again. If you eat something enough times you will eventually like it. Not liking healthy food is for the weak minded.

[-] sem@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 week ago

Y'all aren't getting that this comment is about stuff that tastes sweet.

[-] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 4 days ago

but many people don't even particularly like sweet stuff, my brain just constantly demands starch and protein

[-] moss@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 week ago

not true. There's plenty my brain likes that's good for you. For example: cardio, sushi, coffee, sex, anchovies, tabbouleh, whitefish salad, bagels, and blankets. As always, all good things in moderation.

[-] teije9@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 week ago

this is why I always try to use non sugar-free alternatives
