Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Best evidence to acclaim the reviewed effects, needs sufficient trials to support the linkage of incidents of adverse kidney function with the ingestion of the drink. This study aimed to conduct a review of current studies determining adverse kidney function caused by ingestion of energy-drink. Electronic academic database of Cochrane, PubMed, CINAHL, and MEDLINE were searched for relevant studies. A systematic review of English articles published from December 1988 to December 2020 was conducted. All study design was included. A Prisma-flow diagram was applied. Nutritional ingredients, clinical parameters from urine and blood reported kidney function were summarized. The outcomes were condensed into four main interests: ingredients of energy-drinks, intensity and duration of ingestion, and ethical issue. Adverse kidney function was found among adults with excessive ingestion of energy-drink.
