Dr. Riedl warns: Drip bars and energy drinks endanger our health!

Hamburg, Deutschland - Health warnings are in the focus: Dr. Matthias Riedl, a recognized nutritionist, is critical of the latest nutritional trends, in particular the so-called Drip bars. These facilities offer vitamins and nutrients rich infusions that are administered directly into the bloodstream. Riedl describes this practice as dangerous and unnecessary. "The idea that our body needs additional vitamins is wrong. A hangover does not cause an immediate lack of vitamin," he explains in his podcast. He also sees risks ranging from possible germs to dangerous overdoses and demands a clear demarcation of medical methods in nutrition.

In the same breath, Riedl also criticizes excessive advertising for energy drinks, especially Prime products. These are not only overloaded with sugar, but also contain high amounts of caffeine and other potentially harmful ingredients. According to Riedl, this is a health risk, especially for young people. While energy drinks can provide more energy at short notice, the long -term effects are alarming. Studies show that high consumption can lead to sleep problems and even serious cardiac arrhythmias. Riedl points out that other countries such as Canada and Australia have already taken measures to prohibit such drinks or at least introduce age restrictions.

In addition, it is emphasized that many health risks are based on the high quantities of sugar and other additives that are often overlooked. A scientific examination showed that the stimulating effects of energy drinks are not without dark sides, and the combination with alcohol can have catastrophic consequences. Riedl and other experts warn: "Consumers should be aware of the risks associated with the consumption of these trendy drinks." In view of the warnings, it is crucial to make informed decisions about your own diet and consumption of nutritional supplements in order not to endanger your own health.
