Reasonable price for a carton of these delivered. Hanging out for the big cans lower
CamelCamelCamel.
60mls evaporated?
190ml?
was posted 440mls
awful price when you calculate the 24x500ml is usually rrp $45-50 meaning you get way less value per ml by getting the 250ml cans.
same product but 24x500ml for $43.64 with s&s - https://www.amazon.com.au/Monster-Energy-Drink-Ultra-500mL/d…
Revised up vote as I thought this was the large cans.
24 x 500 ml is $43.64 , this is not a deal
bad deal considering on special 4 cans of 500ml is $5-6 dollars.
Ridiculous can get 4x500ml usually $6
Just got the last deal 12x500 for $14 😍
As a long time energy drink consumer there's real concern over research that has found many energy drinks cause a reaction once opened that creates significant amounts of hydrogen peroxide…
Norman Swan:
A study of energy drinks has found that many undergo a chemical reaction which produces hydrogen peroxide, a substance which causes oxidative stress, that's biological rusting, which is the reason why hydrogen peroxide is quite a good antiseptic.
But could it lie behind the increasing proportion of stomach cancers in young people in some parts of the world? Professor Louise Bennett is in the School of Chemistry at Monash University and is one of the people who did this research.Louise Bennett:
That's exactly right. So what we found and the way redox active compounds can behave…Norman Swan:
You'd better just explain 'redox active' since not all of us have a PhD in chemistry.Louise Bennett:
Sure, so these are chemical compounds which have capacity to either take an electron on board or to donate an electron to another compound, so they are unstable, if you like, in the presence of another redox active companion, and that's what the situation is with the formulations in some of these energy drinks.
…
Norman Swan:
And were they sparkling energy drinks or were they all flat, because sparkling comes from carbon dioxide, doesn't it, which might get rid of oxygen. Was there any relationship to whether it was fizzy or not?Louise Bennett:
Well, as a matter of fact in the process to make these energy drinks, the carbonation occurs afterwards, and it's all trapped in the bottle. So really that chemistry is related to the amount of dissolved oxygen that's in the water that is used to make the drink.
