The frantic pace of modern life makes you spin, rush and adjust to a given rhythm. More and more often, young people resort to the so-called "ambulance" - energy drinks, which in a matter of minutes give strength, invigorate, relieve fatigue and drowsiness. One of the most popular is the energy drink Adrenaline.
In the article we will study its composition, consider the signs of poisoning and overdose with the product, and also try to understand what is the benefit and what is the harm of Adrenaline, what is its lethal dose.
The main active ingredients of the product are:
Immediately after the energy drink is drunk, a surge of strength is observed, fatigue disappears, and the mood rises. But after a while, when the action of Adrenaline wears off, the energy does not just leave the person. He feels completely overwhelmed, drained and wrung out like a lemon.
During this period, you need to have a good rest, sleep as much as possible, move away from the action of artificial stimulants. But instead, many are reaching for another portion of an invigorating drink, which is the main danger: you can get poisoned with Adrenaline.
If you exceed the recommended daily dose of an energy drink, you can suffer from an overdose.
Signs of an Adrenaline overdose:
If you often abuse energy, you can get serious diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, nervous and cardiovascular systems. A mental disorder in a person is inevitable. There have been cases when people have died of cardiac arrest after overdoing it with an energy drink. The lethal dose is individual for everyone, in any case, you should not drink more than the recommended portion, namely 0.5 liters per day.
If, after a drunken energy drink, a person complains of a deterioration in health, first aid is needed.
First of all, you need to get rid of the energy remaining in the stomach by flushing it properly and causing vomiting. Next, you need to open the windows, letting fresh air into the room, and give the patient sorbents that will help remove toxic substances from the body. In addition, drinking plenty of fluids is helpful.
If the case is serious, then you urgently need to call an ambulance or independently take the victim to the hospital, where he will be provided with qualified assistance. In some cases, when a person has serious health problems, even a relatively small amount of energy drink drunk can become a lethal dose for him.

How harmful is Adrenaline? How useful is it? Many people mistakenly believe that the use of an energy drink helps to saturate the body with useful substances, "load" the necessary resources into it. In fact, under the influence of such a drink, our body in an accelerated mode wastes all its reserves. They do not come from the beverage can, but from our own body.
Therefore, already in a few hours after the drunk product, not a trace of the former vigor remains. A person is overcome by terrible fatigue, complete apathy appears, nervous overexcitement makes itself felt.
An overdose of an energy drink occurs when it is consumed in an amount of more than two 250 ml jars per day. At the same time, there is a great load on the heart, blood pressure rises, and sugar levels increase.
At the moment, the lethal dose of an energy drink for the average consumer has not been established. Some may drink more than twenty cans and not even feel the consequences, nevertheless, there are cases when the use of a large amount of energy was fatal.
In addition, with the regular action of the components of the drink, as a rule, existing problems with the liver, kidneys, heart, blood vessels, and the nervous system are aggravated.
The body is depleted from the frequent use of caffeine.
In addition, the drink contains substances that are very harmful to the gastrointestinal tract. With frequent use, diseases such as gastritis or ulcers are possible.
It is important to understand that a single use in reasonable doses of the energetic Adrenaline in extreme situations, of course, can help out great, giving strength and vigor at the right time. If, after the drink you have taken, you recover properly, rest and sleep, then there will be no harm to a young healthy body.
But if you regularly take Adrenaline, health problems will immediately appear, and the existing ones will be significantly aggravated. So, there is much more harmful in it than useful.

Adrenaline belongs to the group of hormonal drugs and is an analogue of the main hormone synthesized by the adrenal medulla - paired endocrine glands found in humans and vertebrates.
The active ingredient of the drug is epinephrine (Epinephrinum).
Pharmacological group of Adrenaline - hypertensive drugs, adreno- and sympathomimetics (alpha-, beta-).
According to the instructions, Adrenaline hydrochloride is available in two forms:
Being inherently a neurotransmitter, adrenaline, when injected into the body, transfers electrical impulses from a nerve cell through the synaptic space between neurons, as well as from neurons to muscles. The action of this biologically active chemical is associated with the effect on alpha and beta adrenergic receptors and largely coincides with the effect of excitation of the fibers of the sympathetic nervous system - a part of the autonomic (otherwise autonomous) nervous system, the nerve nodes of which (ganglia) are located at considerable distances from the innervated organs.
According to the instructions, adrenaline provokes vasoconstriction of organs located in the abdominal cavity, vessels of the skin and mucous membranes. To a lesser extent, there is a narrowing of the vessels of the skeletal muscles. At the same time, blood pressure indicators increase, in addition, the vessels located in the brain dilate.
The pressor effect from adrenaline, however, is less pronounced than the effect from the use of norepinephrine, which is due to the excitation of not only α 1 and α 2 -adrenergic receptors, but also β 2 -adrenergic receptors of blood vessels.
Against the background of the use of Adrenaline hydrochloride, the following are noted:
Also, under the influence of Adrenaline, the muscles of the bronchi and intestines relax, and the pupils dilate. And since this substance serves as a catalyst for all metabolic processes in the body, its use:
In addition, Adrenaline hydrochloride is capable of exerting a pronounced anti-allergic and anti-inflammatory effect on the body.
A characteristic feature of Adrenaline is that its use provides an immediate derivative effect. Since the drug is an ideal stimulator of cardiac activity, it is indispensable in ophthalmic practice and in surgical operations.
The use of Adrenaline, according to the instructions, is advisable in the following situations:
Since this drug has a short-term effect, to prolong the time of its effect, Adrenaline is often combined with a solution of novocaine, dicaine or other anesthetic drugs.
Contraindications to the appointment of Adrenaline are:
Since Epinephrine is available in the form of a solution, it can be used in several ways: lubricate the skin, inject intravenously, intramuscularly, and under the skin.
In cases of bleeding, it is used as an external agent, applied to a bandage or tampon.
The daily dose of Adrenaline should not exceed 5 ml, and a single administration should not exceed 1 ml. The agent is injected into a muscle, vein or under the skin very slowly and with great care.
In cases where a child needs a medicine, the dose is calculated based on the individual characteristics of his body, age and general condition.
In cases where Adrenaline does not have the expected effect, and there is no improvement in the patient's condition, it is recommended to use similar stimulating drugs that have a less pronounced toxic effect.
It should be remembered that an overdose of Andernalin or its incorrect administration can cause the patient to develop severe arrhythmias and transient reflex bradycardia (a type of sinus rhythm disturbance, which is accompanied by a decrease in the number of contractions of the heart muscle to 30-50 beats per minute).
In addition, high concentrations of the substance can enhance the processes of protein catabolism.
Currently, there are many analogues of Adrenaline. Among them: Stiptirenal, Epinephrine, Adrenine, Paranephrine and many others.
Energy stimulating drinks have been in demand at all times: in the Middle East - coffee, in China, India - tea, in America - mate, in Africa - cola nuts, in the Far East - lemongrass, ginseng, aralia. Stronger drinks in Asia - ephedra, in South America - coca.
Austrian entrepreneur Dietrich Mateschitz, after a visit to Asia, came up with the idea to create a drink that rivals Pepsi. And then the inspiring Red Bull appeared on the market. Companies producing similar products reacted to this by releasing their own versions: the fiery "Burn", the drink "Adrenaline Rush" and others.
Today, energy drinks with various flavors are highly popular in all countries. Widespread production started in 1984, and now they are available in any bar, club, on the territory of the sports ground.
"Adrenal Rush" is a combination of tonic components: stimulants, vitamins, flavors, dyes. The opinions of specialists about the benefits of power engineers are different. Some treat them like soda, others warn about addiction, addiction and harm.
The drink "Adrenaline Rush" contains sucrose, glucose (a substance formed during the breakdown of starches and disaccharides). In all energetics there is a well-known psychostimulant - caffeine, relieves fatigue, increases heart rate and performance. The stimulant has an exceeded limit and lasts only three hours, but it takes much longer to withdraw.
The main ingredients in the composition of the drink "Adrenaline Rush":
The drink "Adrenaline Rush" was created to stimulate the nervous system, reduce fatigue, activate mental activity, but only for a period of 6 to 8 hours. The main tonic effect is caused by amino acids and caffeine, which can be achieved with the use of natural remedies. Each individual of the ingredients of the drink is useful, but in the aggregate and in the proposed dosage, their effect is questionable.
The analysis of the components shows that the contents of the energy drinks are not distinguished by outstanding properties. The principle of the drink is to squeeze the forces out of the body for a limited time, after which they will need to be restored. A glass of naturally sourced stimulant drink has the same effect, except for the effects of chemical additives. Therefore, comparing the harm and benefits of the drink "Adrenaline", one can come to the conclusion that it has nothing to do with a healthy lifestyle.
According to some buyers, if necessary, to cheer up the energy drink will be a lifesaver.
Isotonic, in contrast to energy tonics, are suitable for people involved in sports.
The carbonated drink accelerates the action of the active substances in it compared to the usual one.
They differ in composition: some contain more caffeine and are suitable for people with a nocturnal lifestyle, others - more carbohydrates, so they are chosen by athletes and workaholics.
Convenient packaging allows you to use Energotonic on the go and in any circumstances.
Regular consumption of the drink "Adrenaline Rush" has a direct effect on a person's sleep: stable insomnia develops, and the sleep that comes is pathological. Nightmares can occur, external stimuli are strongly influenced, and awakening brings a feeling of fatigue.
The mood under the influence of the drink changes towards instability: suspiciousness, irritability, aggressiveness, excessive anger appear. The surrounding reality seems colorless to a person, loses its meaning.
The defeat at the organic level should include sinus tachycardia, interruptions in the work of the heart, increased pressure, indigestion.
If the intervals between doses of the energetic are shortened, there is a risk of overdose. Her symptoms: nervousness, insomnia, heart rhythm disturbances.
If the intake of caffeine in the body does not stop, the consequences are: pain in the abdomen and muscles, destruction of the central nervous system. Caffeine in an amount of 10 to 15 g, corresponding to 150 is fatal.
With regular use of the drink "Adrenaline Rush", the harm from it is obvious and is observed in the following:
Fatal cases are known: in 2001 in Sweden, when mixing energotonic with vodka; in 2000, when an athlete used three cans of energotonic at the same time.
Unfortunately, according to modern research, the energy drink "Adrenaline Rush", like others like it, is persistently addictive. And for some people, this addiction is equated with alcohol or drug addiction.
In Norway, Denmark, France, drinks are only available in pharmacies and are considered dietary supplements. In Russia, the presence of more than two tonic components in a product is prohibited, mandatory indications of restrictions on the can have been introduced. "Adrenaline" is not allowed to be sold at school.
In case of an overdose by power engineers, you must immediately call an ambulance. Before the arrival of doctors, you need to give the victim 2 liters of warm water and provoke vomiting, and then give him 12 tablets of activated carbon. To neutralize the effects of caffeine, you should drink green tea or milk. Magnesium-fortified foods (avocado, cabbage) will be beneficial.
In the hospital, the victim will be given a gastric lavage and given an IV. The aim of the treatment is to detoxify and relieve the nervous system.
It is contraindicated to mix an energy drink with coffee, since destructive consequences for the body are not excluded.
Energy drinks are absolutely contraindicated for adolescents and people over 50, pregnant women, people with chronic diseases.
Diseases in which the Adrenaline Rush drink is harmful:
In the countries-consumers of the drink, there is no propaganda about its dangers, and the norm is not regulated by anything. It should be noted that in Europe and the USA the number of drinks significantly exceeds that in the CIS. The consumer should remember that the drink is not a source of strength - on the contrary, it depletes the body, provoking uneven energy production, which will sooner or later have to be paid for.
