Found this adverse health report on 5 hour energy:

I used to drink the stuff during exam time and this report is concerning. Any thoughts?

It's lupus.

This is nothing new though. It's been a big concern for a while now. The founder is a sleazy dude. Even created a new ad around the whole mess.

Kind of makes me wonder what else besides caffeine are they really putting in there.

Multiple reports of death? wow

"Individual adverse event reports about a particular product and the total number of
adverse event reports for that product in CAERS only reflect information AS
REPORTED and do not represent any conclusion by FDA about whether the product
actually caused the adverse events."

Please read the full reports before jumping to conclusions. This is like saying guns kill people when its what people do with them on top of other things and with pre-existing heart conditions and liver conditions.

Yea, some of these guys obviously had heart conditions and probably took like 10 shots.

It may be true that theses patients had other things going on, but the number of reports and similarity in reports is shocking. I wonder if in a few years this product will turn to be something like fen-phen--slipping under the radar until people start dropping.

Just don't drink more than 5 at one time.

Yup. 5 x 5 Hour Energy = 25 Hours of Energy.

It's simply too much for one day.

Phenylketonurics should avoid it. Don't know if the bottles have appropriate warnings about that.

I drink 4 6hr energy shots to get the most out of my rotations
