i hope this helped. i drink one twice a year, news years always so i can stay up all night. but i dont think once a week would hurt you. my friend drinks 1 to 2 a day and i worried. hes basically addictided. he cant stop. [ pinkcherries's advice column | Ask pinkcherries A Question ]

I don't think it is ever good for you to take something as strong as a Monster. Is it bad to have some once in awhile, probably not, but you're better off without it.
Energy drinks (and drugs in general) work by stimulating or suppressing certain chemicals in your body, so that your body runs on more (or less) than what it's used to. Monster for example increases your body's regular amount of adrenaline (and other hormones), and that is why you feel the energy rush. But later you get a bad crash because your body is depleted of its regular amount of adrenaline and can't produce enough to help you function normally.
