German Experts Warn: Energy Drinks Pose Serious Physical and Mental Health Risks to Teenagers

health

Germany’s “Aponet.de” health portal has issued a stark warning that energy drinks are a double threat to teenagers — endangering not only their heart and blood pressure but also their mental well-being and academic focus.

 

The German pharmacists’ portal “Aponet.de” revealed that energy drinks often contain high levels of caffeine, sugar, and other stimulants such as guarana and taurine, making them potentially harmful to adolescents. The report noted that these ingredients can raise blood pressure even in healthy children and may cause irregular heartbeats in those with existing cardiac conditions.

 

It also warned that the excessive sugar content in energy drinks increases the risk of obesity, diabetes, and tooth decay, adding that the long-term effects of these additives on children’s health remain largely unknown.

 

On the mental health side, the report stressed that energy drinks can worsen anxiety, depression, and panic attacks, as well as lead to sleep disturbances and attention problems. Over time, this can cause poor concentration and lower academic performance, especially when combined with sleep deprivation.

 

To protect their children, experts advised parents to set clear rules about consuming energy drinks and explain the reasons behind them. They also recommended offering healthy alternatives like water or unsweetened tea—and leading by example by avoiding such drinks themselves.
