A drink, or beverage, is a liquid which is specifically prepared for human consumption. In addition to filling a basic human need, beverages form part of the culture of human society.

Water

Main article: Drinking water

Despite the fact that all beverages contain water, water itself is not classed as a beverage. The word beverage has traditionally been defined as not referring to water.

Alcoholic beverages

Main article: Alcoholic beverage

An alcoholic beverage is a drink that contains ethanol, commonly known as alcohol (although in chemistry the definition of “alcohol” includes many other compounds).

Beer has been a part of human culture for 8,000 years. In Germany, Ireland, the United Kingdom, and many other European countries, drinking beer (and other alcoholic beverages) in a local bar or pub is a cultural tradition.

Is it good to drink an energy drink before a work out?
Q. Is it good to drink a Rockstar, Monster, or Red Bull before working out? I've heard that energy drinks really aren't good for you, though I heard that some men drink it before working out. I'm curious to know, is it good for you to drink before exercising?

A. They are not the healthiest choice to begin with, but on the other hand I still drink them. But definitely not before exercising. They have been known to make you heart race, and using them before working out, could be very dangerous. Energy Drinks Should Not Be Consumed During Exercise Energy drinks should not be confused with sports drinks such as Gatorade, which are consumed to help people stay hydrated during exercise. Sports drinks also provide carbohydrates in the form of sugar and electrolytes that may be lost through perspiration. The caffeine in energy drinks acts as a diuretic and promotes dehydration. Here is an article about how they affect your health. Around the USA, the drinks have been linked with reports of nausea,… [cont.]

How much beer should I drink to get drunk and not go over the top?
Q. I'm around 5'3 and weigh about 100. I know that it depends on a person's metabolism as to how much to drink to get drunk, but can anyone give me an estimation? I want to get drunk but not be too hungover to the point of throwing up.
Asked by lastangel112 - Fri Jul 4 16:13:41 2008 - - 6 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It depends on how long you plan on drinking. If you're going to be drinking for a 3hr period-then probably 6 to 8 should work. If you're planning on being out all night-plan on just a few more. I always try to keep tabs on the time. If you don't drink that much, I would say 1 to 1 1/2 per hour should do the trick. Stay safe and please don't drive. Most importantly-have fun!!
