Core Tip	The last decade has witnessed a great surge in the consumption of energy drinks which coincided with an increased rate of reported cases of intoxications resulting in cardiovascular adverse effects especially arrhythmias, although most of such cases were associated with alcohol, stimulants, or rapid consumption in a short period of time. In our paper, we summarized the research pertaining to the most common components of the energy drinks in an attempt to evaluate whether the call for control of the products is merited, some of which had surprising possible health benefits.
