What is your view of energy drinks and can you suggest a healthier alternative?

Sep 06 2021

Some energy drinks have been found to improve physical endurance, but have less effect on muscle strength and power. The amount of caffeine in energy drinks vary widely and the actual content may not be identified easily.

These drinks can enhance alertness but may also reduce the steadiness of hands. Caffeine may also be associated with anxiety, sleep problems, digestive problems and dehydration. A single 16 oz container of an energy drink may contain more than 20 grams of added sugar.

Sources of vitamin C, mainly sour-tasting seasonal fruits will be a good replacement for your energy drinks. Orange, apple, green apple, passion fruit, grapes, pomegranate and tender coconut are traditionally used as energy drinks. Asian ethnic drinks are famous for their nutritive and energy benefits.

Green juices and smoothies, some green vegetables, spinach, kale, parsley are great sources of Vitamin B, which our body requires for metabolism to run at its peak.

The more whole it is the better the absorption would be. Some green teas and flower teas are also known to be either calming or elevating moods if you have taste for it. Natural jasmine, good quality chamomile, dry ginger and fennel are traditionally used for this purpose.

The Healers’ offer a journey, which looks at making people responsible for their own health, following time tested wellness principles of Ayurveda, called Swasthavritta.
