Episode 36: Energy Drinks

This week on The Living Experiment, we're talking about Energy Drinks — the surge of popularity they're currently enjoying, and the widespread energy-deficit that appears to be driving their consumption. We explore where real energy comes from, the mechanisms by which energy drinks may give us a real or perceived boost, and why that boost may come with some serious strings attached. Whether you're a fan of energy drinks, or concerned about the effect they might be having on you or someone you love, we offer you insights into their potential pros and cons, and we suggest some experiments to help you generate more sustainable energy in ways that work for you.
