Anxiety, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), depression, and suicidal thoughts were among the mental health issues that people who drank energy drinks were found to be more likely to experience, according to a study conducted by Fuse, the Centre for Translational Research in Public Health at Teesside University, and Newcastle University in the UK. The Public Health Journal published it last month.
To reach their conclusions, researchers claimed to have examined data from 57 studies involving over 1.2 million adolescents and young adults from more than 21 different nations.
While “many studies” indicated a relationship between energy drink use and alcohol usage, binge drinking, smoking, and other substance use, it was discovered that guys consumed more energy drinks than girls.
According to a report by the Telegraph, lab leaks have increased by 50% since the COVID-19 pandemic in the UK, with 156 instances of lab leaks or mishaps since January 2020.
“Additional health effects noted in the updated review included increased risk of suicide, psychological distress, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder symptoms, depressive and panic behaviors, allergic diseases, insulin resistance, dental caries, and erosive tooth wear,” an abstract of the paper said.
In terms of the effects on mental health, it was discovered that “frequent” energy drink consumption “was associated with severe stress and suicide attempts,” and that “intake of [energy drinks] greater than once per day was also associated with higher rates of suicide ideation and attempts.”
“Longitudinal analysis reported that [energy drink] consumption was related to increased ADHD inattention, conduct disorder, depressive, and panic symptoms,” it continued to say.
Newcastle University co-author Shelina Visram expressed her “deep concern about the findings that energy drinks can lead to psychological distress and issues with mental health” in a news release.
