An ounce of caffeine is about the same as 30 cups of coffee. Probably not too healthy!
If the amount of caffeine in a serving of those little energy drinks would cause any serious damage, I would have died decades ago.

When I need to relax, I go out for fast drive on an open road, at which point my chest relaxes and I fill with air like never before.

??? What does this mean ?? The levels of electrolytes in most sports drinks barely affect the chemical activity of water.

What about the chlorine and flourine, and all the other stuff besides H20...like estrogens, drugs we flush down the loo, industrial waste, and all the other stuff we pour into our lakes and oceans without giving them a second thought. And even taking man-kind out of the equation, how pure is the water from the most pristine glacier? There are all those minerals we pay so much for when we buy mineral water.

In fact, the stuff you drink is only the first step in the making of Sigma water... its why idiots like me pay $30 for 100mL of water, because PURE water is neither cheap nor easy to find:
