Caffeine

Something I will never consume in large quantities for an experiment or otherwise is highly caffeinated drinks.

Two words: cardiac arrest.

Hagerstown, Md., Oct. 22, 2012:

Aniais Fournier is dead. After drinking 48 ounces of Monster Energy her heart has stopped from “caffeine toxicity”. A lawsuit ensues. But that's not what I'm here to talk about, at least not on that level. Time.com reports that this is a growing problem. Three to five deaths from Monster Energy drinks (depending on your sources) and a few more from other brands such as Five Hour Energy, have been reported.

CNN reports some of the ingredients in the link provided.
