Coca- Cola's name was derived from its two active ingredients, both known stimulants: coca leaves and kola nuts (a source of caffeine). Fresh coca leaves were replaced by "spent" ones in 1904 because of concerns over the use of cocaine in food products.

- 9. 1-Tachycardia: is a faster than normal heart rate at rest. It can disrupt normal heart function, increase the risk of stroke, or cause sudden cardiac arrest or death. 2-Tremor/Shaking: too much caffeine from energy drinks causes some people to shake and be anxious. This can interfere with performing needed tasks or cause emotional issues. A study out of Perth, Australia found that even just one 250ml energy drink can increase anxiety in young men. 3-Agitation/Restlessness: is a feeling of aggravation or restlessness brought on by provocation or a medical condition. 4-Stomach upset 5-Chest pain/Ischemia: Ischemia means that your heart is not getting enough blood and oxygen.

People may not feel impaired but their blood alcohol concentration is still high and they may consume larger amounts of alcohol as a result. Energy Drinks & Alcohol A SERIOUS MATTER
- 16. What’s wrong with that? Well, when alcohol, a depressant, is mixed with stimulants- such as caffeine- it creates a toxic combination. Although these mixed drinks usually contain the same amount of alcohol as draft beers and wines, the combination can cause a much more dramatic intoxication that experts have started to call the “wide awake drunk.” Essentially, this means the individual will have the same Blood Alcohol Content, BAC, as they would have without drinking the energy drink, however the stimulants creates a more “sobering” effect.
- 17. As a result, people tend to believe that they are sober enough to drive a car; in fact, individuals who mix alcohol and energy drinks are four times more likely to drive a car than individuals who did not. In a recent study it was found that college students were twice as likely to require medical attention, ride with an intoxicated driver or be on either side of sexual assault. In addition to this, average caloric intake for premixed alcoholic energy drinks far exceeds that of its counterparts
