Episode 124: Energy Drinks

In this episode, I’m talking about energy drinks and whether they’re actually safe or just a flashy caffeine hit in a can. I break down the two big things that matter most: sugar and caffeine. I chat about why those are worth paying attention to, especially when it comes to your sleep and the knock-on effect that has on your hunger, cravings, and overall food choices.I also compare energy drinks to coffee, because they’re often lumped into the same category. I explain why coffee tends to come out looking a bit better nutritionally, and where energy drinks can start to cause problems if you’re not paying attention.Time Stamps:00:00 Understanding Energy Drinks: Safety and Concerns02:31 Caffeine Content: What You Need to Know05:13 Comparing Energy Drinks and Coffee: Pros and ConsClick me for show notes!PS.
