Energy drinks are good but too much of them can lead to unpleasant results.

 

Energy drinks belong to a class of products in liquid form that typically contain caffeine, with or without other added dietary supplements.

Energy drinks are designed to give an “energy boost” to the drinker by a combination of stimulants and energy boosters.

 

The major constituent in most energy drinks is caffeine. while energy drinks might benefit performance and possible detrimental health problems.

 

Here are five side effects of excessive intake of energy drinks:

 

Irregular heartbeat

 

Irregular heartbeat is a common concern for regular energy drink consumers and general caffeine consumers alike. So if you are choosing an energy drink with excessive amounts of this stimulant, you may notice your heart beating in a way that you are not used to.

 

Difficulty falling asleep

 

Those who drink energy drinks may have difficulty falling asleep. And not sleeping well can cause a person to feel sluggish the next day, leading them to seek a solution for their lack of energy. Enter an energy drink, which can cause sleeplessness—wash, rinse, and repeat.

 

Frequent anxiety

 

Consuming energy drinks is linked to increased nervousness. If you are generally a more anxious person, regularly drinking these beverages may not be the best match for you.

Tendency to partake unhealthy behaviour

 

It is becoming more commonplace for people to combine energy drinks with other less-healthful substances, whether it is alcohol, cannabis, or tobacco. Some may even call it a “gateway drink”. So, if you are regularly drinking energy drinks, it appears that the chances of partaking in other unhealthy behaviors are increased as well

 

Increases blood pressure

 

Drinking energy drinks can increase systolic blood pressure within a brief period of time after drinking. If you are trying to manage your blood pressure in a healthy way, energy drinks are not the best beverage to include in your diet for this reason.
