How to get my BF to stop drinking Rockstar (energy Drinks)?!
Answers: They lead to heart problems and he says he likes the taste of it. how can i get him to stop?
Unlike alot of other energy drinks, Rockstar actually has a good citrus flavor. But they don't give you energy, they just make you burn what you have up faster. The high levels of caffeine pretty much wipes out a lot of nutrients in the body and the nutritional imbalances will lead to sores in the mouth, insomnia, muscle spasms, cramps in the legs and feet., difficulty concentrating, weakness in the legs and knees, increased suceptablility to desease, and many more.
If he has any of these symptoms, try to get him to have a caffeine cut-off time in the evening, point out that he will sleep better if he lets some of it clear his system. I use to get really bad muscle spasms at night, and since I stopped drinking or eating any thing with caffeine after 5 PM, the spasms have stopped.
I have the same problem. My boyfriend likes to take one to work everyday....his favorite is red bull....and I try to tell them that they are bad for him, but he likes them a lot as well.
Tell him you care for him and his health and if he loves and respects what you are telling him then he'll stop. And look up alternatives to drinking Rockstar that will keep him going and that taste good. And you could also go on webmd.com and look up energy drinks and I'm sure they will give you some good evidence on why energy drinks are bad (PERIOD). Then you have proof for your boyfriend that they are BAD!
Well you can't "make" him stop, and you shouldn't try to make him, but tell him it leads to heart problems, etc. etc.
I don't know what kind of guy he is, but typically if a guy knows it really bothers you, we'll stop doing whatever it is. Or at least try. I'm addicted to nachos, my gf been trying to get me to eat healthier, and I am, but nachos are freakin delicious... Yeah, I know I have a problem. xD
Tell him they make his mouth taste like barf all day and it makes you not want to kiss him.
start saying his breath stinks or that he is getting dark circles or even a twitch and you thinks its cos of the drinks.
Maybe he will be like "Oh my gosh! Im Hideous!" and he will stop...
tell him you saw something on the news about some of the ingredients in energy drinks may cause long term impotency problems and that they're dong a study on it...
just get him to try something better and more healthy like fuze or sobe life water ect hope i help.
They can give you a heart attack and tell him that.
Certainly don't lie to him.
Point out that the calories in that stuff are all from corn syrup. Show him that all those calories have no nutrituion backing them up. An energy drink or a soda is just calories, nothing else. The same calories, for instance in a sandwich, is full of protein, good carbs, fiber, and all kinds of things the body can use.
This is a good thing to point out to all those friends we have who are constantly drinking soda. Calories without nutrition!
