People consume energy drinks for a variety of reasons. One of the most popular reasons is to increase mental alertness by enhancing brain function.
But does scientific research prove it?
There is a lot of research showing that energy drinks can increase brain function such as memory, concentration and response time, as well as reduce mental fatigue. Consumption of 500 ml of these drinks can increase concentration and strengthen memory by 24%. It is often claimed that this effect is due to the presence of caffeine in combination with sugar. However, the amount of caffeine varies in different products.
The main ingredients of these drinks are carbohydrates (sugar) or other permitted food sweeteners, flavorings, taurine, guarana, ginseng extracts, caffeine and B, C and E vitamins.
This group of products is suitable for special people, mainly young people who are looking for more energy or want to do heavier activities during the day, but have a lack of energy and drowsiness. An energy drink makes you work while you're tired.
Products such as Red Bull, Monster, Rockstar and… are popular examples of energy drinks in the global market.
Advantages of consuming energy drinks:
1. Stimulation of metabolism
2. Improving emotional state (invigorating)
3. Increase concentration and reaction speed
4. Improving and increasing performance
5. Increase energy and relieve fatigue
6. Strengthen memory
Concluding remarks on the consumption of energy drinks:
• The biggest concern about this type of drink is caffeine. It is recommended that adults do not consume more than 400 mg of caffeine per day.
• The use of such substances is not recommended for pregnant women. In general, pregnant women should follow specific instructions during pregnancy.
• Reduce and balance their consumption.
• Consumption of these drinks due to caffeine in them causes dehydration, so be careful with your body water.
Most of these drinks contain ingredients called "energy boosters" such as caffeine, taurine and in some cases glucuronolactone to stimulate metabolism and gain energy quickly.
All three of these substances are present in natural foods and in our body, but their concentrations are higher in these drinks.
At present, Babolab provides all natural ingredients from flavors to colors, natural sweeteners and functional ingredients such as vitamins in the production of this drink as a product that includes all these features with a proper and cost-effective dose of consumption. These ingredients are very effective and can be provided as Compound or as separate powder Premixes.
Our premixes contain all the nutritious and functional ingredients such as B vitamins, taurine, glucuronolactone, caffeine and other required ingredients and are widely used in the Energy drinks industry. However, if the needs of the producers are not met with the available premixes, depending on their demand and purpose, Babolab will formulate and present the desired special Premix.
