Energy drink is so popular these days that it can be found almost everywhere. Energy drink is consumed by millions of people each month. This is great for manufacturers but is bad for people’s health. Most consumers don’t drink energy drink on regular basis but there are some consumers who do. The consumers who drink it on regular basis will eventually feel its negative side effects. In the short-run, most energy drinks don’t cause major health problems. In the long-run, they can lead to serious chronic diseases. Side effects can range from: insomnia, headaches, stomachaches, tremors, dehydration, blood sugar spikes, energy crashes, and increase of heart and breathing rate. From studying energy drinks, I would say over ninety-eight percent of them are not healthy to drink. To make matters worst, most brands of them have sugar-free versions. The sugar-free versions are worst than the regular ones because they contained artificial sweetener. The most common artificial sweetener found in energy drink is sucralose. Energy drink usually contained cheap synthetic vitamins and minerals, and synthetic chemicals. It also contained a lot of energy blends, such as taurine, herbs and caffeine. The herbs shouldn’t cause major health problems but some herbs can have strange side effects when mixed with other chemicals. The ingredients in energy drink that I’m most concerned about are: synthetic vitamins and minerals, refined sugar and sucralose.
Synthetic vitamins and minerals:
The vitamins and minerals found in most energy drinks are cheaply made and synthetic. The main purpose for this is to increase profit. Certain synthetic vitamins and minerals are more stable than their natural version, which is why beverage manufacturers like to use them in their products. Energy drink usually contained a lot of water-soluble vitamins, such as B-vitamins and vitamin C. Water-soluble vitamins dissolve quickly in liquid; therefore, it is useless to add them in beverages. For this reason, when you consume energy drink you are basically consuming a drink that is full of empty calories.
