In a perfect world, we'd all eat fresh fruit and veggies, low fat, high protein foods and fast foods would be non-existent.

But since we all live in the real world, fast food is a reality for nearly all of us.
Simply stated - Americans love fast food.

To answer the question of how much is too much, many nutritionists would say any amount is too much. Fast food is an overly processed collection of salty, saturated fats that offer little in terms of nutrition. And for the most part, the nutritionists are right.

Do you use any energy drinks? If so, have you had any positive results? I understand the excessive amount of caffeine and sugar aren't considered "healthy", but in moderation are they OK?

I've also heard of energy drinks being mixed with alcohol. Is this OK? (since the alcohol is considered a "depressant" and the energy drink is more "stimulating"...do they kind of cancel each other out?)
