Is it true that consuming energy drinks regularly causes adverse health effects?
Yes. A 2025 peer-reviewed review concludes that energy drink consumption leads to various health problems, and multiple systematic reviews and studies in students, adolescents and animals report associations with adverse effects such as cardiovascular, sleep, digestive and mental health problems. Most other sources cover only specific populations or outcomes rather than the general claim.
