Monster Energy Drinks do not contain alcohol, so consuming them alone should not cause you to fail a breathalyzer test. However, some energy drinks can affect your metabolism and hydration levels, which might impact how alcohol is processed if you've consumed both. Additionally, certain ingredients in energy drinks may lead to false positives in some breathalyzer tests, but this is rare. It's always best to avoid drinking and driving altogether.
Five Hour Energy could be a possible cause in some deaths. There are also unsafe levels of caffeine in energy drinks like Monster, Redbull, and Rockstar. They can be dangerous to your heart in some cases.
Absolutely they can. I have a breathalyzer in my car from a DUI and it registered after drinking a 180 Energy drink. I have a police issue breathalyzer I use to see what my BAC is before I attempt to start my car. I just tried an experiment. I blew a 0.000 then took a drink of a Rockstar Juiced Mango and Orange passion fruit. I immediately blew again and registered a 2.68 on my breathalyzer. After a drink of water I registered a 0.000, so do not drink an energy drink and then try to blow. Wait a minute or two, or drink a glass of water to clear from your system.
No.
No, technically energy drinks like Monster are not drugs although there are many negative effects to energy drinks. The sugar and caffeine content is very high and can cause insomnia. Also due to the high sugar/caffeine content you can have heart problems if you drink an energy drink before exercising or if you have a preexisting heart condition. The negative effect of energy drinks can be worse if you consume them along with alcohol.
To the best of my knowledge, energy drinks cannot cause false positives for PCP.
The number of Monster Energy drinks that could potentially lead to a heart attack varies significantly based on individual factors such as a person's age, weight, overall health, and tolerance to caffeine. Monster Energy drinks typically contain high levels of caffeine and other stimulants, and excessive consumption can increase the risk of heart problems. While some individuals may experience adverse effects from just one or two cans, others may tolerate more without immediate issues. It's important to consume energy drinks responsibly and consult a healthcare professional if you have concerns about their effects on your health.
i do believe energy drinks do cause gallstones.
no.
No.
Has anyone ever had this happen to them? Has anyone ever had this happen to them?
No.
One hesitates to say it couldn't possibly happen, but off the top of my head I can't see HOW it could give a false positive. One reputed method of giving a false NEGATIVE involves using energy drinks.
