Adina Natural Highs Energy Drinks
Why this product rocks
Well Fed Man believes most energy drinks are as desirable as a MC Hammer comeback tour. Nothing more than sickeningly sweet sugar water pumped full of caffeine and an ingredient list that a chem whiz would have trouble deciphering. That’s what these energy drinks from Adina are a welcome addition to a rapidly expanding market.
Adina’s new ready-to-drink canned coffee energy drinks are made with recognizable ingredients such as coffee, low-fat milk, cane juice and vanilla and there are 30 to 40 percent less calories than most of its energy drink competitors.
What’s better, the coffee and cane juice is certified Fair Trade meaning that the farmers are given a better cut and can invest in healthcare, education and sustainable agriculture.
So if you need a little jolt try one of Adina’s five delicious flavors instead of the bull.
Body benefits
Several recent studies suggest coffee consumed in reasonable amounts can help fend off several maladies such Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, stroke, diabetes and heart disease. This probably can be chalked up to loads of antioxidants found in coffee beans. Plus, a recent British study suggests that up to 100mg of caffeine before exercise can significantly improve endurance.
A caveat though: There are some sugar calories in these beverages so don’t go downing them like tap water. At least the cane juice used is better than ubiquitous high fructose corn syrup. But still, moderation is key.
