Energy drinks

Many teenagers are drinking a huge quantity of energy drinks everyday whitout knowing the real impacts. And in our days, they can buy them almost everywhere without having problems . But should we stop selling energy drinks to teenagers? Personally, I think that we should not sell them to young people, mostly because of the health problems related to their heart. Let me convince you.

These drinks or not only full of sugar, which is really bad for their health. They are worst than what we think. For exemples, they can cause  anxiety, agitation, shakiness, dizziness, sleep disturbance, upset stomach, rapid heart rate, headaches and dehydration . And it’s not enough! A lot of doctors and nutrionists agreed that energy drinks are worst than alcohol for teenagers! These beverages are just not good at all!

Many athletes are thinking that they can have better performances if they consume energy drinks, which is not completly false. But it is a good way to have better results? Of course not! These beverages are giving you energy because of the caffeine and sugar, and it’s not a real boost for your body. But the biggest problem is that when you begin to drink these for your sport, your body will become lazy. It means that whenever you’ll decide to stop to drink them, you’ll have difficulty to perform. And it’s the worst thing for your heart. Like I said in the first paragraph, it can cause rapid heart rate ,and when you’re doing sport, you’re heart is already beating faster then when you’re at rest. So what do you need more to believe me that the energy drinks are just giving you false results?

Well, with all these problems that I just wrote about, it’s not surprising that more than 10% of the addicts to these beverages are hospitalized. And some of them died!  It’s sad to realize that if they would have stopped before, they would maybe still be with us. So why should we continue to sell this poison?

Hope that one day, we’ll be able to put a limit, and that teenagers will stop thinking that there’s no impacts for them. Be careful about what you’re drinking, we never know when a tragedy can occur.
