How long does it take for an energy drink to kick in?

ive tried google and ask.com already, please help


Answers:
I think a lot depends on your metablolism, but I know with coffee drinkers the caffeine starts to kick in within 10-15 minutes. I would think this would be similar with energy drinks as many of them contain caffeine, as well as other stimulants.

should be instant ... the caffeine will enter your bloodstream almost immediately.

If your stomach's empty, maybe within 10 minutes. If it's full, then you won't digest the drink as fast, so you won't get as much of a kick, and it'll be spread out over a longer period of time, and it might take more like 20 minutes to kick in fully.

I think it depends on the person (size, weight, tolerance to caffeine, what you drank or ate before you downed a Red Bull, etc). Energy drinks have no effect on me but that could be due to the fact that I grew up drinking Mountain Dew every day as a child.

actually some energy drinks are mostly psychological so in that case it would be almost instant and other wise it would take maybe 10 minutes max
