Energy drinks are primarily for athletes, gym rats, or people who work physically demanding jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Energy drinks have been known to induce a number of side effects that may worsen with time. However, the most common side effects show up when caffeine is consumed in immoderation. If you consume more than 400 mg of caffeine in a day, it can lead to increased heart rate, restlessness, and anxiety.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Caffeine tolerance is different for every person, while some people may be able to process 400 mg of caffeine or more, others may not be able to process 50 mg of caffeine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Energy drinks include urge doses of caffeine as it&rsquo;s the main ingredient that can boost your energy levels, nevertheless, I don&rsquo;t suggest you overconsume them as they can even cause heart attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&rsquo;re wondering how energy drinks
