Energy drinks freak me out.
I am writing a story about a recent report from a team of researchers that states that drinking lots of energy drinks can lead to caffeine addiction and that the caffeine content should be labeled. It also states that energy drinks can act as “gateway drugs” leading to abuse of other stimulants like Ritalin and Adderall. A local doctor I spoke to said that moderation is the key to drinking these drinks and that, just like soda or coffee, dependence on energy drinks can occur if you drink them every day.
I found this blog posting while researching the story. I thought it was really well done so I wanted to share it with you.
