Energy Drink, Brings the Brink

Do you wish to be a wizard? How about having wings to fly high? Would you like to have strength like a tiger? Why not to bring out the beast in you like a shark?
These are the fascinations we run for these days. Thanks to the creative departments of the advertising agencies. It feels like, a sip of energy drink has all the power to transform you to what you want to be. Is that so?

The irony is ‘Energy Drink’ has become a serious threat to the world. More importantly, developed countries have started to feel the negative effect of so called ‘Power Drink.’ Recently France did ban ‘Red Bull’ because of an unprecedented event that took place in a basketball ground. An 18 year kid drank 4 cans of ‘Red Bull’ just after the match. Unfortunately, he died instantly after having those cans. Investigations showed, it was a ‘sudden adult dead syndrome’ and the reason was a deadly mixture of caffeine and high blood pressure. You might ask, what is on earth is there in these type of drink?

We should be alarmed to know that a can of power drink consists of 360 milligram caffeine whereas 400 and 300 milligram of caffeine is enough for a grownup men and women respectively. We should know the all important caffeine used in energy drink is not only for making it tasty but also to make the drinker addicted. As a result it becomes a normal tendency to wish more and more for an energy drink. Research suggests that pregnant women suffer severely from premature delivery and might even lose the gift of giving birth.

A cup of brewed coffee has between 80 and 135 milligrams of caffeine. Some energy drinks contain two or three times that amount plus the equivalent of 5 teaspoons of sugar. What actually happens regarding the perception about energy drinks? They claim to enhance performance, concentration and stimulate metabolism at the same time. These highly caffeinated, sugar laden beverages are readily available, legal and absolutely addictive to ensure the propaganda. If you want to be the carrier of sleep disturbances, obesity, tooth decay, dehydration, hypertension and anxiety, energy drinks are the perfect catalyst for you.

Energy drinks open up the doors for the long term turmoil in your life. Actually, it is the stepping stone to drug addiction. This is one life and we all know that. To lead a beautiful one, we should be aware of what we are drinking.

Now, would you prefer to bring the brink of your life?
