I heard on the evening news (and I'm only reporting what they said) that the guy had high blood pressure already - not the kind of person who should be chugging "charged" anything anyway. Those energy drinks are not good for your heart, but I do get why people use them. I just think they're not for everyone.

'Not for everyone' generally means some people just don't like that thing, not that it causes fatalities.

If you are at risk for certain activities or drugs, like caffeine, you are part of the not for everyone demographic...
