These studies suggest that sugar-free energy drinks may be harmful due to promoting metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, neuroinflammation, and other negative health consequences.
Sugar-free energy drinks have become increasingly popular as a perceived healthier alternative to their sugar-laden counterparts. However, emerging research suggests that these beverages may still pose significant health risks. This synthesis aims to consolidate findings from multiple studies to understand why sugar-free energy drinks might be detrimental to health.
While sugar-free energy drinks eliminate the risks associated with high sugar content, they are not free from other significant health risks. These beverages can contribute to metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular issues, neuroinflammation, and dental problems. The presence of high caffeine levels and other stimulants further compounds these risks, making sugar-free energy drinks potentially harmful despite their lack of sugar.
