Many of us use coffee and energy drinks as dope while driving. However, this can not only adversely affect the health of the driver, but also lead to a traffic accident. With details – the portal “AvtoVzglyad”.
Despite the fact that taurine, caffeine and other theobromine in coffee and energy drinks are designed to energize the body and minimize fatigue, your favorite drinks can play the opposite role. And – God forbid – the last in your life.
The fact is that seemingly harmless substances that are even found in multivitamins have the opposite risk when overdosed. For example, after a glass of coffee, the heart begins to contract faster, the blood rushes to the brain, enriching it with oxygen. The extra 30-40 kilometers can be rushed with renewed vigor.
In a jar of “energy” there is even less caffeine than in coffee, but it is full of all kinds of “chemistry” and guarana. This is an analogue of caffeine, only powerful – one gram equals forty. Yes, at the initial stage it gains strength, improves the functioning of the heart and brain, and also helps to reduce appetite. However, this hyperactivity is temporary. Or actually short term. The maximum you need is an hour’s drive.
But after the stimulating effect dries up, the body literally fights fatigue – the driver tends to sleep. Theobromine comes into play, which in combination with amino acids and L-carnitine quickly initiates the sleep process. We don’t think we need to explain how this can end behind the wheel.
Let’s say more: and for health – no pluses. Excessive use of these stimulants, which actually block the adenosine receptors that are particularly responsible for drowsiness, can cause headaches, breathing problems, and worse, even seizures or a heart attack. Therefore, it is strongly not recommended to abuse invigorating drinks.
Incidentally, while driving, traffic police pay particular attention to lovers of ‘energy drinks’ and coffee drinks. Portal “AutoVzglyad” found out what it is related to.
