Television and print media is full of ads for energy drinks and bars that they say provide you with instant energy and what not. Now the big question is to consume or not to consume such things. The answer to this question is dependant upon the fact that what type of activity levels you have and what do you want out of the product? Do you wish to have a flat abs and a muscular profile? Do you go for long walks, do you use the gym. If not then do you need such drinks or energy bars?? Simply put NO. I know it might come as a shock to you, but in my line of work I have seen many people, fat people mind you having such drinks one after the other which does not help them in anyway but instead helps them pile on the kilos.

I will even say to the extent that almost all who drink such things are mostly overweight and obese. Then why do people drink it? Perhaps it has got something to do with the image of the drink that is portrayed and people who have it don’t consume it to stay fit but for all the wrong reasons. The same can be said for the energy bars and I say if you are not going to use that energy to work out then do not have them
Why do fat guys eat this stuff? This perhaps is due to the ads that are there and it makes fat people try to copy what their sport star like whom they wish to be enjoy the drink so they consume it too hoping that they will get a body like he has . These drinks on the other hand can work out well if you workout. Since it is a well known fact that you shouldn’t eat anything for around two hours before a gym session and that your body requires at least half an hour to digest anything. This is where energy bars can be of use they are small and packed with calories and can be had half an hour before a session and you will realize that you felt no hunger while exercising.

How much should you drink? Considering it takes around forty minutes to absorb the drink on an average hence for every half and hour of work out you can roughly have 16 oz of such drinks but if you have a sedentary lifestyle let me tell you these drinks offer you no good all they offer is extra calories so be wise and save your money for a rainy day.

Why am I talking about these things in such an abrogating manner? Because I pity all those who fall for such a marketing trick. You don’t require this stuff. If you require this stuff then I say you require a piece of land on mars too yes they do sell it why not have that too, if u feel this is a waste of money then so is your so called energy drink. Stop wasting all the money you have and whatever you save donate it for some good cause?

Instead of having such worthless high on sugar and energy stuff try the healthier alternatives like fruits and vegetables, eat smart and eat right that’s the way you will stay fit and tight!
