Energy Drink

Energy Drink is a sweetened, carbonated or still beverage marketed to boost alertness and energy — commonly consumed as a quick pick‑me‑up in many countries and often formulated with caffeine and B vitamins. It is relatively high in simple sugars, containing about 10.2g of sugar per 100g, which is a main source of its quick energy effect. Nutritionally, energy drinks are not a significant source of protein, fiber or healthy fats; instead they are notable for added ingredients such as caffeine and B‑vitamins (for example niacin, riboflavin and vitamin B6) that support short‑term alertness and metabolism. From a health perspective, they can be useful occasionally for short bursts of alertness but are best used sparingly because of the high sugar content and limited nutritional value; choosing lower‑sugar or unsweetened alternatives is a healthier option for frequent consumption.
