Why do you choose V out of all of the other energy drinks?

Do you drink any other energy drinks? (& why )

Do you know why some people don’t like to drink energy drinks?

How does “V” fit into your daily life?

Any comments on the pricing of V in AUS ?

Combine that higehr caffiene content with the fact that i have seen people neck these in a few seconds.... and do two or three in an evening... you might as well go and get 200mg of caffiene pumped into your blood using an IV. It is literally the same thing, particualrly if you havent eaten (anyone seen people substitute energy drinks for breakfast ?! I sure have.). So a Demon energy shot would be like drinking 4 strong expressos in a few seconds....that is the worry with the ever inceasing caffiene levels. Plus caffiene is toxic (actually a poison) at high levels... 10 or so coffees can cause problems - this is hard to do though, purely because of the volume of liquid... but this is the same as 2 or 3 demon energy shots, which is pretty easy to drink - its only 180mL afterall. Sources: my physiology lecturer, reading articles on caffiene, and currently writing a review article on energy drinks effects on the cardiovascular system. Its scared me off drinking V (which is *only* 109mg in a can...) ted – the main cause of concern is the amount of caffiene in ONE bottle – not the total intake over time. eg red bull has 80mg of caffiene which is similar to a coffee, however Demon energy shot is 200mg of caffeine and it is only like 60ml of liquid – much more concentrated and simply put – much easier to drink faster.
