  1. Okay. Um I'm Ryland and this is my presentation on the energy drinks.
  2. Um So my first thing is what my tier one question
  3. is what effects do energy drinks have on the body?
  4. So heavy consumption can lead to an increase in blood pressure,
  5. heart rate and or kidney stones.
  6. Uh short term effects is shakiness in
  7. hands and reduce steadiness throughout the body.
  8. Caffeine can often cause
  9. anxiety, digestive problems and dehydration,
  10. consumption in moderation is mostly safe,
  11. but over consumption can lead to major health issues.
  12. Effects are much more serious and adolescents.
  13. And then these are these are my sources for Mikey one questions.
  14. Um So my next one of my Tier two questions is,
  15. is are there any positive effects of energy drinks?
  16. And
  17. there are and they are they boost energy levels.
  18. It increases recovery, speed and endurance and workouts.

  21. minimum mineral levels in blood.
  22. So what actually is in an energy drink?
  23. Well,
  24. carbonated water is a major ingredient in almost all energy drinks.
  25. They can have up to 50 g of sugar.
  26. Um
  27. usually 160 mg or more of caffeine.
  28. And then there are herbs and substances that lack scientific evidence.
  29. Um here are my Tier two questions sources.
  30. Um So another question I thought about was
  31. our sugar free energy drinks actually healthier.
  32. Um and well, it turns out sugar is usually replaced with artificial sweeteners
  33. and artificial sweeteners have unknown long term effects.
  34. So we don't really know um What what could
  35. happen long term if it's actually better for you.
  36. But over consumption can still cause major health problems.
  37. When should somebody drink an energy drink?
  38. Usually 30-60 minutes before a workout.
  39. If you're trying to get that workout boost
  40. from
  41. the caffeine.
  42. Um If you just want to be able to not be so sleepy and be energetic throughout the day,
  43. best to drink it at
  44. 9 30 to 11 30 your mid morning time
  45. And then just make sure you don't drink one within 4-6
  46. hours of the time you go to bed because that will
  47. not help you sleep.
  48. It will be tough.
  49. Um So what are the alternatives?
  50. Um Green tea is a healthy alternative that can still give an energy boost
  51. amino acid supplements are good for people looking to still
  52. get a workout boost without the sugar and harmful substances.
  53. And coffee still has caffeine just without the sugar.
  54. So is coffee actually better?
  55. And uh so like I said before, sugar is absent coffee and let's added
  56. coffee has a moderate amount of caffeine
  57. like overall.
  58. Um And it's sold in many places or you can make your own. So it's widely available.
  59. And here are my sources for the last three questions that your three questions
  60. and that's my presentation on energy shakes
