Energy Drinks – Is There a Danger?

Since the 1990’s, Energy Drinks has increasingly become popular especially with the youth (ages 14-25).What was once considered to be a fad has now turned into a needed item. We live in an ongoing lifestyle; everyone is always on the move and not getting much sleep. To off balance this so many choose to take these energy drinks that give us that extra needed boost. This lifestyle choice does not seem to be going away any time soon, so it shouldn’t amaze you that Energy Drinks is turning into a billion dollar industry. I have even read that Energy Drinks may even replace Energy Drinks in the future. At an average of to dollars a can doesn’t stop anyone from consuming this product.

The question that keeps coming up is there a danger or risk with the Energy Drinks that we consume on a daily basis. The dangers that I have noticed is in the drinks two key ingrediants which is caffeine and sugar. Neither one of these ingrediants are good for you in excess. The caffeine in one energy drink is more than double what you would find in a cup of coffee. The sugar content is more than you would find in a can of soda.

Caffeine can raise your hearbeat as well as your blood pressure. Sugar can play a big part in you gaining weight and feeling run down physically. I have not found many other dangers in energy drinks although they do say they are healthy and are actually far from healthy. I would strongly suggest moderation when consuming energy drinks. You would not let your children drink 8 to 12 cans of soda a day, in fact I would not suggest anyone doing that. I have read so many instances where a person was drinking about 12 cans a day and then wondering why they were not doing to good. I would suggest 1 to 2 cans at the most every day.

About a year ago, a healthy alternative was introduced to the energy drink market. This energy drink is called Verve and it is packed with the vitamins and nutrients that we need on a daily basis. The drink also has less sugar than what you would find in a can of soda. You can’t find this in a store but only on the internet through the website they give you as a customer. There is even a sugar free verve for diabetics. Verve is so good it comes with a money back guarantee. You can drink every can and within 30 days send it back for a full refund. With a guarantee like that I couldn’t refuse to give it a try. I had one drink and I was sold. The drink not only tastes great but I found myself with more energy and that energy did not go away after a couple hours. I would recommend anyone who is into energy drinks to give Verve(the healthy alternative) a try. For more product information go to www.healthnutty.com.
