[M626]Monster Energy Drink Cans
by Low Jeremy, Low
After a hard day's work, you feel like you have lost all your body energy. You just want to rest on your couch or bed and take a sleep, yet you still have activities you need to accomplish. You have to report on your regular exercise routine on a nearby health gym. After which, you will be having dinner with your husband or wife later on. Just how you will handle these activities if you are running out of energy?

Every one of us is releasing energy everyday. We use our stored body energy derived from foods that we eat first thing in the morning and throughout the day in order to mobilize our bodies on performing our daily task, whether in the office, school, gym, or anywhere. In addition, energy keeps our minds active as well so that we can think and act quickly on different tasks involved.

Aside from the foods that are the primary source of our body, there are also energy-boosting beverages that you can drink to replenish the energy that has been lost due to everyday activities. There are different varieties of energy drinks available in the market, and one of which is the Monster energy drink. Of what it is and other attributes of this popular energy drink will be discussed in the preceding sections of this article. Read on and learn more about the "monstrous effect" of Monster energy drink.

About Monster Energy Drink

Monster energy drink is manufactured by Hansen Beverage Company situated on Corona, California. It was among the pioneers of drinks that have marketed their products on a 16-ounce can, which is twice as large as the regular bullet-size energy drink, yet offered in the same price. Presently, Monster energy drink market is now on most convenience stores and supermarkets within the United States and Canadian territories.

The packaging of Monster energy drink, in case you do not see it yet, is black 16-ounce can with the neon green-colored letter "M" (the logo for Monster energy drink) shaped like a claw.

Maybe they feel drinking from a straw or glass isn't macho or cool. At home they have no such qualms and always use glasses, usually so many I complain about the washing up.

There is a very good reason for my insistence however and relates to an incident which happened several years ago when I lived in Brunei.

One Friday afternoon a fit young family man who played football for a local team bought a can of drink from a restaurant situated close to the river. He drank directly from the can and died soon after. It was said he died of Weil's (pronounced Viles) disease. It caused quit a stir at the time and I've never forgotten it.

I was reminded of the incident today when I opened my e-mail and read this:-

"A woman went boating one Sunday taking with her some cans of coke which she put into the refrigerator of the boat.

On Monday she was taken to the hospital and placed in the Intensive Care Unit.

She died on Wednesday.

The autopsy concluded she died of leptospirosis. This was traced to the can of coke she drank from as she hadn't used a glass.

Tests showed the can was infected by dried rat urine and hence the disease Leptospirosis."

Rat urine contains toxic and deadly substances. They are all around us and it is estimated no-one lives within a few feet of one these days, especially with the amount of food waste and rubbish left lying around.

They live anywhere where there is food and are not fussy about what they class as food. Rats often live in sewers and drains.

Rats can swim and with unusual weather conditions and unprecedented rain fall in many areas, flooding has left several areas not as clean as they should be.

If you must drink from cans or bottles I strongly recommended you thoroughly wash them first or at least the upper parts.

Cans are typically stocked in warehouses and transported straight to shops without being cleaned. Even if they have that plastic wrapping over the trays of cans when they reach the stores you need to consider that someone will stack them on the display shelves.

Do you know what is on their hands? Have they washed them?

A study at NYCU showed that the tops of soda cans are more contaminated than Public toilets i.e., full of germs and bacteria.

My husband often complains of the amount of men who walk straight out of the public toilets without first washing their hands. I'm sure it's the same for many women and that thought usually crosses my mind if I shake hands with anyone.

I have no such worries with my autistic son who is an "expert" hand washer. He has been known to almost hold up planes and stage performances because of it.

However, with so many infections seemingly resistant to treatment these days we need to take as much care of our health as possible.

Antibiotics and antibacterial products are no longer the answer.

What many people do not realise is that these kill ALL bacteria and many are really very useful and necessary.

Instead of using "anti" products you need to use "pro" products and they certainly are available.

I use all natural, general purpose, probiotic cleaning products and certified organic, probiotic health products.

Now instead of having my house full of toxic chemical laced cleaners, I have a powerful army of beneficial bacteria who regenerate, repopulate and dominate over the harmful, disease causing pathogenic bacteria, which are causing such concern both in homes and in our hospitals.

Please take care of your health, and if you must drink from bottles and cans PLEASE wash them with water BEFORE putting them to your mouth.

Leptospirosis or Weil's disease can be fatal.
