  • Side Effects of Energy Drinks Caffeine
    Side Effects of Energy Drinks By: Sarah Holmboe, M.A., YSB Parent Education Coordinator Are there really side effects from the ingredients in energy drinks? The information below has been adapted from “Energy Drink Side Effects” from http://www.caffeineinformer.com/energy-drink-side-effects#2. Energy drinks are popular among youth, who are consuming more and more. Youth typically consume these drinks for a burst of energy, whether it’s to help them stay up late to study, or to help them stay awake the next day. However, recent research suggests that there are risks associated with the over-consumption of energy drinks. Energy drinks may contain supplements and vitamins and are required to list warnings on the label about consuming more than the recommended serving. In moderation, most people will have no adverse, short-term side effects from drinking energy drinks. However, the long-term side effects from consuming energy drinks aren’t fully understood as of yet. Let’s take a look at the most common energy drink ingredients and list the potential side effects that could result from ingesting too much of them. Caffeine This is the most common energy drink ingredient and one of the most widely consumed substances in the world.
