随着能量饮料消费在全球和美国境内持续增长，严格检查这些饮料的营养成分及其对人口健康的影响非常重要。这篇小型评论总结了当前关于能量饮料消费对健康造成影响的科学证据，提出了相关的公共卫生挑战，并提出了缓解这些问题的建议。新的证据表明，能量饮料的消费与许多负面健康后果有关，例如冒险行为、心理健康状况不佳、心血管不良影响以及代谢、肾脏或牙齿疾病。尽管证据具有一致性，但大多数研究都是横断面设计，或者几乎完全关注咖啡因和糖的影响，未能解决其他成分的潜在有害影响。由于缺乏监管和该行业针对青少年的积极营销，与能量饮料 (ED) 相关的负面健康影响更加严重。此外，勃起功能障碍与酒精混合的趋势不断上升，这给研究人员和公共卫生从业者带来了必须进一步解决的新挑战。为了遏制这一日益严重的公共卫生问题，政策制定者应考虑为勃起功能障碍建立一个单独的监管类别，设定基于证据的咖啡因上限，限制勃起功能障碍的销售，并规范现有的勃起功能障碍营销策略，特别是针对儿童和青少年。
As energy drink consumption continues to grow worldwide and within the United States, it is important to critically examine the nutritional content and effects on population health of these beverages. This mini-review summarizes the current scientific evidence on health consequences from energy drink consumption, presents relevant public health challenges, and proposes recommendations to mitigate these issues. Emerging evidence has linked energy drink consumption with a number of negative health consequences such as risk-seeking behaviors, poor mental health, adverse cardiovascular effects, and metabolic, renal, or dental conditions. Despite the consistency in evidence, most studies are of cross-sectional design or focus almost exclusively on the effect of caffeine and sugar, failing to address potentially harmful effects of other ingredients. The negative health effects associated with energy drinks (ED) are compounded by a lack of regulatory oversight and aggressive marketing by the industry toward adolescents. Moreover, the rising trend of mixing ED with alcohol presents a new challenge that researchers and public health practitioners must address further. To curb this growing public health issue, policy makers should consider creating a separate regulatory category for ED, setting an evidence-based upper limit on caffeine, restricting sales of ED, and regulating existing ED marketing strategies, especially among children and adolescents.
