Energy drink people

Absolute Zero by Monster here only. Used to drink the green shit, too much sugar. The lo-carb tastes like shit.

I drink red bull only with Grey Goose.

My dentist said the same thing. Isn't it also the acidity that is in these as well?

One more question...wouldn't the ingredients in the low/no sugar energy drinks make teeth rot also?

Many of the ingredients are the nearly the same as Lo-Carb with a few differences besides the lower calories and sugar mentioned earlier. They promote a retooled 2800 mg of energy blend (consisting Taurine, Panax Ginseng, L- Carnitine, Glucuronolactone, Inositol, Guarana and Maltodextrin), a new sweetener system (ace k and Erythritoll), and a new flavor.

Several of the non-sugar sweeteners can be metabolized by the bacteria that cause oral disease. Also, your body mis-reads artificial sweeteners as regular sugar and will dump insulin to put the real sugar in your bloodstream into fat. Can't win with this stuff.

Drink water, or black coffee or non-sweetened tea.

Monster Rehab > All. Since Dr. Teeth told me if I keep drinking pop I will be wearing dentures before I see 25 I've had to find alternatives to my daily crack fix. Rehab doesn't have nearly as much garbage as everything else.

That's great. I'm sure everyone will drink something like that sooner or later, and frankly, that's not bad. It's those who pound this stuff everyday, all day. I had one guy who ruined his teeth with Mountain Dew. Fixed 'em, he switches to Redbull/Monster/Gatorade. Rotted again. Fixed again, switches to McDonald's Iced Sugarachinos. Rotted again, now we're pulling. Once he has no teeth he can have all the sugar he wants. Problem solved!

I've been consistently drinking lo-carb (blue) monster for 10 years.....in those 10 years I haven't had a single cavity. My gums are fine, i should floss more though.....but overall the worst i my teeth have are a little discoloring, nothing like smokers or coffee drinkers though. The rest of my diet over the past three years is solid besides beer. outside of my monster and beer, i only drink water....no pop, no sugary juice, just water. I'm also not into candy or sweets very often.....maybe once a month or so.
I know not everybody reacts the same to this stuff.....have you ran across the other specrum like myself in your practice?

When I went to see him he said everyones teeth can handle it differently. Some people can drink pop every single day and be fine with basic brushing/floss.

All the time. A few of us can handle it, most cannot. I just forewarn everyone about it. You have to remember too that a lot of people smoke cigs like a chimney and do not end up with cancer. Yet. I just warn people to be careful, that's all.

Kinda what I figured.....i've mentioned the habit to two different doctors, and shown them an actual can with all the ingredients....and both said in moderation they are fine. I'm sure my kidneys are taking a little abuse because it's not all natural, but the artificial sweetner Monster uses in the lo-carb is one of the better ones out there. I don't have a history of heart problems in my family, and I keep a monitor on all my health stats frequently.
