About this book
After reports of adverse events associated with energy drink consumption, including trouble sleeping, anxiety, cardiovascular events, seizures, and even death, concerns have been raised about their safety and efficacy. Energy Drinks: Composition, Consumption, and Cautions will focus on these popular beverages, their composition, ingredients, consumption patterns, performance-enhancing effects, and their potential negative side effects and health risks. This book will go on to make recommendations that call for education, regulatory actions, changes in marketing, and additional research.The research about energy drink safety and efficacy is often contradictory, and much of the available literature is industry sponsored. This book will offer a single, unbiased, up-to-date resource for researchers, healthcare providers, and industry regulators to understand the full scope of energy drinks and their associated health risks.
- Covers the composition, varieties, and ingredients of energy drinks
- Details the performance-enhancing effects, as well as the adverse effects associated with energy drinks
