Also if you get your body more "fat adapted" metabolism then you will have less reliance on glucose and more on all that fat we have inside of us. We have enough stored glycogen for short bursts of energy, we don't need those drinks...but alas their marketing budget is much larger than mine.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467994117916260529.post-37127134650712594962008-03-16T16:31:00.000-07:002008-03-16T16:31:00.000-07:00I believe this can be primarily to citric acid.I believe this can be primarily to citric acid.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467994117916260529.post-84222730915710693432008-03-16T16:18:00.000-07:002008-03-16T16:18:00.000-07:00Peter and Scott - thanks for the commentsPeter and Scott - thanks for the commentsChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00223657383325055342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467994117916260529.post-47365279038976572562008-03-16T05:53:00.000-07:002008-03-16T05:53:00.000-07:00Hey Chris,Nice find on DeVany's site.

I have an acquaintance that is going to work for Monster (energy drinks, not the career site) and he said they are coming out with a 32oz can. 32oz! That's 320 mg of caffeine if they keep the same formulation. Ridiculous. Anyway, I wrote an article a week or so ago called <A HREF="http://www.modernforager.com/blog/2008/03/04/pondering-energy-drinks-and-the-fatigue-of-a-nation/" REL="nofollow"> Pondering Energy Drinks and the Fatigue of a Nation</A>. There's my take on the caffeine addiction.<BR/><BR/>Cheers<BR/>Scott Kustes<BR/><A HREF="http://www.modernforager.com" REL="nofollow">Modern Forager</A>Scott Kusteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17302199068576114400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2467994117916260529.post-89810778177317080362008-03-16T00:30:00.000-07:002008-03-16T00:30:00.000-07:00Hi Chris,Excellent quote from Art DeVany, nice sum...Hi Chris,<BR/><BR/>Excellent quote from Art DeVany, nice summary.<BR/><BR/>Now I'm using minimal glucose as the primary sweetener in my cocoa, when I run out of glucose and have a dose or two of sucrose (I'm talking about 1.0g in 1/2 a pint here), the taste is very specific and quite different from glucose. Cloying sums it up well. Unpleasant. And that's without any blue die (I mean dye, oops).<BR/><BR/>PeterPeterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14527788116058656094noreply@blogger.com
