Is Your Energy Drink Turning You Into a Woman?
Here’s a short quiz for all the male energy drink addicts out there.
- Have you noticed the growth of man boobs since drinking energy drinks?
- Has your shaving strangely cut down to once a month?
- Can you sing along with Michael when you hear song “Billy Jean”?
- Do you cry for no reason and then the next minute giggle like a school girl?
- Have you experienced unexplained shrinkage?
If you answered yes to any of the above questions, your beloved Energy Drinks could be turning you into a women. Now don’t get me wrong, women are great and all, but most guys don’t want to become one, right?
Well it appears Energy Drinks are testing positive for the chemical, Bisphenol A, which mimics the hormone estrogen. This chemical is often used to line the inside of cans and new testing performed in Canada showed alarming levels of this chemical in the drinks themselves.
This chemical is known to cause birth defects, but it is unclear if it really causes damage in adults. However, it’s something to be aware of and guys if you have any of the above symptoms you may want to have your hormone levels checked!

And here I thought my moobs were the result of sitting in front of a PC and not doing anything all day. But all this time it was the energy drinks! What a relief! I was about to start the whole “diet and exercise” thing. Glad to know it’s nothing to worry about!
Well then I guess the same issue applies for any pop then. All cans containing a carbonated beverage must be lined with something because the acid in the drink will eventually dissolve the (aluminum) can (more of a problem for cola’s since they contain phosphoric acid in addition to the carbonic acid). Can’t say I’ve noticed any of the above issues but I drink substantially more regular pop then energy drinks so it may be an issue for more people then you’d think.
Yet another reason why I stick to the mixes…
[...] Energy drink compound might increase estrogen levels [...]
I thought I was just fat,
I’m sure a woahman is behind this,
more of that (walk in our shoes) crap!
And I wonder why I only bench 140-150lbs
hey if energy drinks can make my boobies bigger. that just gives me another reason to love them more. but sadly caffeine usually does the reverse.
Well that would explain my hot flashes!
