Pros and Cons of Energy Drinks

Energy drinks are quickly becoming popular in American, however some of them can be very dangerous. Certain energy drinks have more caffeine than an espresso and more sugar than pop, however marketing teams lead you to believe they have high amounts of vitamins and nutrients that you need so you figure you can take the good with the bad. However these cans will push your heart into over drive and will cause it to beat in an unhealthy fashion then later take all the energy that it gave you away tenfold. This will make you feel worse than before, this is especially a problem in teenagers and young adults. They will drink a few a day which will cause TERRIBLE IRREVERSEABLE DAMAGE to your heart.

Some new energy drinks are the ones that will last you a few hours and come in a small canister that can usually be ingested in a few seconds. These are great, they work perfectly and give you the energy but don't take any away from you. HOWEVER these can be dangerous just like any of the other ones, most people will drink a few in a sitting, DON'T DO THAT! This will increase the caffeine level and affect your health poorly. If you just drink one every few days (Like I do myself) then you will be fine, this will more over help you in the long run. This one includes some nice vitamins however it is not as good as a vitamin supplement. So don't be dependent on these for you daily recommended doses of vitamins.

If you drink energy drinks to much they will generally increase your overall blood pressure, disturb your sleep, and especially if you are pregnant don't drink these. Caffeine has a long half life! Which means it stays in your body for a very long time,. the half life of caffeine is six hours! So don't take large amounts caffeine 8 hours prior to going to bed. Energy drinks can also cause arrhythmia which is the irregular beating of the heart. Sometimes drinking too many energy drinks can lead to seizures, stroke, mania, depression, disorientation or psychoses or even sudden death. So please be careful.

There are other things you can do instead of using energy drinks, for one get a good nights sleep or eat a healthy diet or even exercise more. American Mattress Gallery can help you with the first one, so come in and get that good nights sleep we were talking about.
