Energy drinks are unhealthy drinks, even though they claim to be able to add energy to the body. This drink is known to contain sugar, caffeine, sodium and acid. In 100 grams of energy drinks, it is known that there are 12 grams of sugar content.
Garima, as a nutrition expert, explained that the caffeine content in energy drinks can cause dehydration and dull skin. Then, the sugar content can increase oxidative stress in the body.
This effect can be felt if you consume energy drinks too often. If this happens, the skin will age quickly. Instead of consuming energy drinks, you should choose coffee or tea without sugar.
2. Alcoholic Drinks
