An energy drink is a non alcoholic beverage used for boosting energy. The main/active ingredients are usually Ginseng, Taurine, Guarana, Caffeine, and Vitamin B. Together they stimulate the nervous system and provide temporary relief from tiredness.

Studies conducted by various universities, like Nova South Eastern University in Florida and the University of Edingburgh, suggest that the caffeine content in energy drinks does boost energy and may be the primary stimulator. While the other ingredients are complementary, in that they improve immunity and aid with stress relief, caffeine is the primary performance enhancer.
