Would you drink something that came with a label like that? The drink is called Spike Shooter, and it is an energy drink supposedly unlike any other. The back of the can then continues with another warning that states:
Warning: Do not use if you are under the age of 18 or elderly. Discontinue if you experience dizziness, headache, nausea, or heart palpitations. If you have trouble sleeping, do not take within 6 hours of bedtime. KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.
The drink also continues to warn against use with prescription medications or if you have any serious health conditions. Honestly, who would drink that!? I personally would NEVER try that. Well, I was reading articles about this dangerous drink and came across an article about a highschool students who had this and had to go to the hospital from falling over, stomach aches, and seizure. Apparently, this drink also has a chemical called yohimbine which is said to increase sexual performance? How can a drink that causes seizures possibly increase sexual performance? The article I read also states that we need to take notice that drinks like these are available for young kids to buy despite the labels, where we have laws prohibing the sale of tobacco and alcohol to minors. I feel as though drinks like Spike Shooter should also have an age of 18 necessary to purchase.
Here is a link to the article if you want to read more about what happened to these students: http://www.wbko.com/news/headlines/7391636.html
That sounds like a crazy drink. I would not put something like that in my body, I try to stay away from energy drinks, soda, and coffee anyway.
ReplyDeleteI have drank those before. They don't have any negative effect on my system. They are actually enjoyable however no longer allowed in my city :( Cant find them anymore.
