"ORLANDO, Nov. 7 -- Energy drinks boost ***** pressure in even the young and healthy people and may leave hypertensive adults more charged up than they bargained for, researchers said here. Consumption of two energy drinks a day increased systolic ***** pressure by 10 mm Hg and heart rate by five to seven beats per minute, according to a small study reported at the American Heart Association meeting. Although this degree of change may hold little danger for most young patients, it likely would be clinically significant with regular consumption or in patients with cardiovascular disease such as hypertension, said James S. Kalus, *****.D., of the Henry Ford Medical Center in Detroit, Mich., and colleagues."
