The study shows how energy drinks containing high levels of caffeine and other stimulants may be dangerous for consumption

SINGAPORE: In a new study published on June 5, researchers show the possible link between consuming energy drinks and cardiac arrest.The study showed how energy drinks containing high levels of caffeine and other stimulants may be dangerous for people who already have genetic heart diseases.

And although the study was conducted at the Mayo Clinic in the United States, it is still relevant to Singapore, where the consumption of energy drinks is expected to grow by nearly four per cent yearly from 2024 to 2028.Many consumers of energy drinks are likely to be video gamers, and advertisements for these kinds of drinks are often found during video games. Common energy drinks in Singapore are Monster, Red Bull, and Rockstar.

While the study does not necessarily show that energy drinks are directly responsible for cardiac arrest, the researchers are warning individuals to drink moderate amounts, particularly those who have a family history of heart problems.
