Nutrition: What makes alcoholic energy drinks harmful?

Alcoholic energy drinks have become very popular in the market, often consumed for their energy-boosting properties.

 

Many people use these beverages to stay awake, get a surge of energy, motivate themselves, enhance their athletic performance, or enjoy parties.

 

It’s important to note that those who consume these drinks responsibly and in moderation generally don’t experience health issues.

 

However, those who abuse these beverages can see their health deteriorate. Excessive consumption of these drinks can lead to various health problems, as the saying goes, “Too much of anything is harmful.”

 

Drinking these beverages in large quantities can cause headaches, nervousness, irritability, and insomnia.

 

Even worse, some individuals seeking intense sensations mix them with toxic substances or drugs, leading to severe effects such as delirium, dizziness, loss of reflexes, drowsiness, itching, a blank stare, and even violent behavior.

 

In this case, the drinks themselves are not to blame, but rather the way they are used.

 

Misinformation has sometimes tarnished the image of certain brands of alcoholic energy drinks.

 

It should be noted that there are dozens of brands on the market, and singling out some while ignoring others is merely commercial injustice.
