Why Alcohol and Energy Drinks Shouldn't Mix
There's been a lot of concern about Four Loko, the energy drink with alcohol. Happily, on Nov. 16, after an FDA warning and public outcry about these drinks and how they can cause blackouts and injuries, Phusion Projects issued a press release announcing that the company would be reformulating all Four brand beverages to remove caffeine, guarana, and taurine from the products.
While this is a good thing, Dawn Peoples, a nutritionist with Barker Bariatric, wants to remind parents and teens why ANY attempts to mix energy drinks with alcohol on your own are dangerous.
