Articles / Cardiomyopathy from Energy Drinks?
It may just be a single case, but the report of a 21 year old man who went into severe cardiac and renal failure after drinking four cans of energy drinks daily is frightening.
And a timely reminder, these very popular drinks can give you more than wings.
According to the case report, recently published in the BMJ, the young UK man had been drinking about four of these 500mL cans daily for about two years before presenting to hospital with a four month history of worsening shortness of breath on exertion, orthopnoea, abdominal swelling and weight loss.
