Gammaenergins

Gammaenergins are a type of energy drink that gained popularity in the late 20th century, particularly in the United States. The name "gammaenergins" is a play on words, combining "gamma" from the Greek letter, which is often associated with energy and radiation, and "energins," a portmanteau of "energy" and "ergine," a type of berry. The drink was marketed as a high-energy beverage, often marketed towards athletes and young adults. Gammaenergins typically contain a mix of caffeine, taurine, and other stimulants, as well as various vitamins and minerals. The drink was produced by a company called Gamma Energy, which was acquired by the beverage giant, PepsiCo, in 1999. Despite its popularity, Gammaenergins faced criticism for its high caffeine content and potential health risks associated with excessive consumption. The brand was eventually discontinued in 2002.
