My oldest son is 11 and likes Full Throttle energy drinks and my husband buys Pepsi Max, is it okay for my son to drink either?
Okay my son doesn’t drink them that often. He may drink them once a month but I do not like energy drinks and agree with most of the answers, but sometimes my son stays up late and is tired the next day, is it okay to give him an energy drink then?
I want to know if there is a website where I can put in this information and it automatically does a search for me and finds drink combinations based on the available ingredients I have. I have jagermeister, pineapple juice, fruit punch, dark rum, banana liqueor, monster energy drink, orange flavored full throttle energy drink, milk, lemon juice, and coke. Thanks for helping

no
dont kids these days have enough energy ?….and if they dont and need an energy drink i would probably take them to the doctor and find out whats wrong
they are too young for all that crap ..energy drinks are not good for kids
It seems ok but not so many a day, cut the intake, maybe one or two a day…….
No, they are still growig kids and they should already have enough energy and should be drink juice, water or milk.
I would not give your kid over 10 energy drinks. It’s not healthy
good lord…what is wrong with you??..kids do NOT need that crap!..it can only harm them….make their hearts strain and possibly damage them as well
No I don’t think an 11 year old should drink energy drinks. I think it may cause adhd. You should cut him down on caffeinated drinks and give him more natural drinks. like juice tea. But he is 11 and he has already got the taste for it. I think it will be hard to tell him no at this point.
All that energy must be wearing you out!
No,energy drinks are bad for kids, but i mean hey, theyre pretty much bad for everyone. Its not gonna kill him or anything like that but it might mess up his system. But like one a week wouldnt be that bad. or even if he drank the diet ones that would be a much better decision
It is not ok to give anyone an energy drink!!!!!!! they are bad for you come on mom you should know this!!!!!!
I wouldn’t give him energy drinks until he is fully through puberty, it’s dangerous having that much energy in your system.
i think this is funny you put this under non alcholic drinks. caffien is considered a drug belive it or not
ha! LOL…i’m 11 and i LOVE Full throtle
No. First of all, all the high fructose corn syrup is horrible for their teeth and the rest of their bodies.
Try one for yourself before giving it to your kids, if you must.
Personally, I’m 18 and “energy drinks” hurt me. I mean make me shake and feel uncomfortable in my own skin. It’s worse than speed, really, it is.
Also they are expensive and taste like gym socks.
While caffeine is legal, it can be just as dangerous as illegal drugs. I’m no prude and have no problem with responsible drug use by informed adults and I can’t blame the kid for wanting to expiriment, but it’s just not safe.
I would not give your 11 year old energy drinks. Even in moderation hes to young. You should wait till hes 13. Also if you want to check the caffeine on the enrgy drinks he has check out this site.www.energyfiend.com. Click on the bar that says “caffeine in drinks”. The list you get has every energy drink ever invented. Hope this helps.
no they are both bad for you. sorry.
I don’t suggest giving children the energy drinks as they are likely to be unable to handle themselves from the jolt of energy that these drinks produce. My son has asked for them several times and we tell him no, it isn’t good to put that stuff in your body.
Well neither Pepsi or energy drinks are good for you. Pepsi is loaded with sugar and all sorts of chemicals that can make you gain serious weight (as w/ all sodas). And as for energy drinks…they carry a risk of addiction. I’ve seen many people get so addicted to energy drinks that they are unable to function w/out them.
Energy drinks ahve been known to raise heart rate and blood pressure due to their high caffiene levels, eventually increasing the odds of a heart attack. And, their high acidity is bad for the stomach.
In small quantities, these effects are negligible and many people enjoy them without a problem. As long as you regulate how much your child drinks (I would hesitate to give am 11-year-old an entire can), then you probably won’t have a problem. But in general, energy drinks aren’t good for anyone.
sure i dont think think it would hurt
It is unwise to give energy drinks to children due to the large amount of caffeine that they contain.
no energy drinks are not for kids .do you give him cofee
noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo i have a sister and 2 over active cousin, they have enough engery. they don’t need anything their just like that. so no it’s not ok to give children over 10 energy drinks.
No, I wouldn’t think it’s ever okay to allow a child that young to have an energy drinks. Most of those speed up your heart rate and it could be dangerous to his health. As far as him staying up all night – he’ll just have to deal with it…he should have went to bed. It also really doesn’t matter how often he drinks it, your child is too young for enery drinks.
A slippery slope, at best. You are helping your child learn to depend on artificial means to maintain stamina, which could carry into adulthood.
Energy drink is a sneaky term for HIGH caffeine, which is not good for kids nor adults (in high quantities). Pepsi Max is another high caffeine drink. If you son needs energy he needs it from food and not caffeine.
Your son should be drinks water, and juices, and very little to no soda, but decaf if he does. Did you know the latest study on soda? Having more than one a day either regular or diet can increase the risk of heart attack. That soda removes calcium from the body. That if you drink a soda a day, even diet, you gain at least a pound a month or more.
I don’t see anything wrong. I wouldn’t over do it.
Once a month is fine as long as it is during the day.
It seems you want to hear that it is okay to give your son energy drinks. Most of the advice you have already received seems reasonable to me. Why don’t you call a nurse hot line or ask his Dr. My guess is that they will strongly urge you to stop giving high doses of caffeine to your kid. If he depends on drinks to make him feel good, it would be probable that as he gets older he will continue to rely on outside factors to ‘feel good’. Not a habit I want my children to start. If he is tired all of the time it is likely he needs a more nutritious diet and more exercise. Don’t sue Full Throttle when your son ends up fat. Fruits and veggies and appropriate amounts of protein will solve the sluggish morning behavior. Good luck, stay strong.
energy drinks lead to serious hard problems
Key in your liquor to google. For example Jagermeister, It will show you various drinks made with Jag. Or invent your own drink (without the milk) That is apt to make you vomit up your immortal soul,or just feel like it.
None that I know of.
This is how real bartenders come up with those fabulous drinks.
Take what you have and make a drink and try it.
list all the ingredients you use and the quantities, then name it.
If you like it give some to your friends.
if you don’t like it try to identify whay you don’t like it and modify the ingredients to eliminate taht flavor and make another.
Keep trying till you get it right. if you are luck it will take a while but you will have a blast figuring it out.
If this is too much work then go get a Mr. Boston Bartender’s guide and start reading.
there’s a disc named “drink” for like 5 bucks at a electronics store that does all that and more…. like calculating the cost of every drink, only work on palm dos
I know there’s more than one but all I can remember is webtender.com
