    Oh my gosh, that's way too much tea... doesn't your body get dehydrated? I hope you're drinking 3x the amount of water just to gain what you're losing :D

    I've always wanted to try Red Bull and see if it actually works, but I never got around to it. From your guys' personal experiences, do energy drinks actually work? I'm going to a track meet this Tuesday and I could use the energy boost. :)

    They work but depends on your body and tolerance to caffeine. I wouldn't reccommend it for a track meet! You might get a really low low! (HUGE headaches...) For tracks: I heard if you eat pasta, LOTS of carbs day before, should be fine.

    i have had energy drink before, but at this time i feel fully charged up, for after effects i can say after a day , caffeine content is minor i feel, though i have no clue about caffeine,

    also was wondering if it is harmful to health

    Energy drinks are definitely harmful to health! That's why you can't just drink as much as you want ;) And..... caffeine is in energy drinks (hence the energy boost). Isn't caffeine bad for your bones too? :eek: + dehydration
