most energy drinks contain caffeine which increases the heart rate and can cause high blood pressure.

Basically, an energy drink is simply a glorified can of soda. Both are carbonated beverages containing caffeine and

sugar, the difference being that the energy drink contains a lot more. The average soda holds 25-40 milligrams of

caffeine, whereas most energy drinks have double that. One new energy drink advertises a

whopping 280 milligrams of caffeine per can!

The main health risk associated with consuming these quantities of caffeine is the effect it has

on heart rate and blood pressure. With large doses of caffeine, the heart rate can

become so accelerated that it may lead to an irregular or

quickened heart beat. In addition, energy drinks can lead to dehydration.  Once the drink wears off,

the effects of dehydration can be felt acutely. In extreme cases, dehydration can be fatal.
