(Newswire.net — November 21, 2012) Los Angeles, CA — For the past few years, energy drinks have been growing in popularity. But are they safe? Recent events, including reports citing death, liver injury, hospitalization, and even a spontaneous abortion has forced the FDA into investigating the ingredients contained in drinks such as Red Bull, Rockstar, 5-Hour Energy, and Monster.
Although Monster and Red Bull fulfill the need for energy on a base level, the way it is achieved is the cause of the issues. The energy that results from these drinks is not natural and dramatically boosts the heart rate and blood pressure. It also dehydrates the body and spikes the blood sugar, which causes the immediate rush and dramatic crash a few hours later. Excessive amounts of these stimulants, in combination, are proving to be dangerous and fatal, as was the case for a teenage girl who died after drinking excessive amounts of Monster Energy Drink.
Years prior to the recent negative press, ZÜS Athletics set out to create a hybrid health energy drink to fill the need of athletes, and consumers in general, who wanted additional energy that their busy lifestyles required but without the dangerous amounts of stimulants typically found in popular energy drinks today.
“In the formulation process of ZÜS Life Blood, we made it our goal to create a drink that was not stimulant-based,” states Edward Earle, founder of ZÜS Athletics. “We wanted it to be safe for everyone by utilizing natural ingredients to produce healthy energy. That is why Life Blood contains only 65 mg of caffeine per can. Caffeine in small doses is proven to enhance athletic performance, energy and focus and can be valuable when used properly. The amount of caffeine is less than a cup of coffee but will give you the quick pick up that you need.” Mr. Earle further explains the ingredient profile of the drink on an audio recording found on http://ZUSHealthEnergyDrink.com/ .
According to the formulators of ZÜS Life Blood, the caffeine simply pushes their Bioactive ingredients into the body. Once in the system, the Bioactive works to restore balance and homeostasis throughout the body. This results in 4-6 hours of smooth and steady energy with focus and no negative side effects.
