Chokeberry Juice

The purpose of this study has been to determine the effect of acute consumption of noni and chokeberry juices vs. energy drinks on blood pressure, heart rate, and blood glucose. The subjects divided into 4 groups, which consumed three portions of noni or chokeberry juices (30 mL or 200 mL, respectively) and energy drink (ED) or water (200 mL) at one-hour intervals. All participants had their blood pressure (BP), both systolic and diastolic BP (SBP and DBP), as well as heart rate (HR) and blood glucose (BG), measured. Consumption of noni juice caused a significant decrease in SBP and DBP of 5.0% and 7.5%, respectively, while, the consumption of chokeberry juice slightly decreased only DBP by 3.6%. On the contrary, consumption of three portions of EDs caused a significant increase in DBP by 14.7%. The BG of participants consuming noni juice decreased by 7.3%, while the consumption of EDs increased BG by as much as 15.8%. Acute consumption of noni juice contributed to a significantly decreased SBP, DBP, and HR as well as a mild reduction of BG. Consumption of chokeberry juice caused only a slight reduction of DBP. Contrary to juices, EDs consumption resulted in an increase of blood pressure (especially DBP) and blood glucose. The results of the study showed that noni juice may be effective in lowering blood pressure and blood sugar levels, but there is a need to continue research on the long-term effect of this juice.

Observation Period

Introduction: “Energy drinks” are very popular and are used frequently, especially by young adults. Most marketed energy drinks contain high levels of caffeine and taurine. Both caffeine and taurine have been shown to have direct effects on cardiac function and hemodynamic status. Hypothesis: We assessed the hypothesis that a commonly used energy drink alters blood pressure, heart rate and EKG parameters in healthy volunteers. Methods: Healthy volunteers (n = 15, 53% female, 25.9 ± 5.9 years, 69.8 ± 14.8 kg) abstained from caffeine for 48 hours prior to and throughout the study period. On study day 1 (D1), blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR) and an EKG were measured at baseline. Participants then consumed 500 mL (2 cans) of an energy drink containing caffeine (80 mg) and taurine (1000 mg) and BP, HR and EKG measurements were repeated at 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, and 4 hours after consumption. Participants then consumed 2 cans of energy drink daily for the next 5 days (D2–D6). On day 7 (D7) the procedures followed on D1 were repeated. Average baseline measurements on days 1 and 7 were compared to maximum values during that observation period. Results: On both D1 and D7, maximum mean systolic BP, HR and corrected QT-interval (QTc) occurred at 4 hours. Maximum diastolic BP occurred at 2 hours on D1 and D7. Baseline and maximum mean values are presented in Table 1 . Within 4 hours of energy drink consumption on D1 and D7 respectively, systolic BP increased by 7.9% (p = 0.006) and 9.6% (p < 0.001), HR increased by 7.8% (p = 0.009) and 11.0% (p < 0.001) and QTc increased by 4.5% (p = 0.368) and 5.5% (p = 0.052). Diastolic BP increased by 7.0% (p = 0.046) and 7.8% (p = 0.063) within 2 hours of energy drink consumption. Conclusions: In conclusion, although no significant EKG changes were observed, subjects’ HR increased 5–7 bpm and systolic BP increased 10mmHg after consuming an “energy drink”. This level of change is likely clinically significant in patients with cardiac disease or those who consume such drinks regularly. Table 1. Baseline and Maximum Values (mean ± SD)

Introduction: An increasing number of healthy adults consume energy drinks to enhance their physical and mental performance. Energy drinks contain caffeine and multiple other “natural” stimulants and their combined effects on cardiac hemodynamics in healthy individuals are unclear. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that drinking a commercially available energy drink, Rockstar , compared to a placebo drink, increases resting blood pressure and heart rate in healthy adults, and these increases would be further accentuated by stress conditions. Methods: We enrolled 25 healthy, normotensive subjects (14 males), aged 29±1 years, with body mass index 24.5±1 kg/m 2 , in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study. Each subject consumed a placebo drink and a commercially available Rockstar energy drink (473 ml), in random order on two separate study days. Blood pressure and heart rate responses were recorded and compared before and 30 minutes after drink consumption, both at rest and then in response to physical, mental and cold stressors. Results: The Rockstar energy drink induced a 6±1% increase in resting systolic blood pressure, compared to 3±1% with the placebo drink (P=0.0078). Diastolic blood pressure increased by 7±1% vs 0±1% with the placebo drink (P=0.0007; Figure 1). Heart rate increased similarly in both groups, by 5±2% in the energy drink group vs. 7±2% in the placebo group. Blood pressure and heart rate increases during the stress stimuli (sustained handgrip, mental stress and cold stress) did not differ between energy drink and placebo. Conclusions: Drinking a commercially available Rockstar energy drink significantly increases resting blood pressure in young healthy adults. Blood pressure increases are not further accentuated by exercise, mental or cold pressor stress stimuli. These hemodynamic changes induced by energy drink consumption could predispose to cardiovascular events.

Abstract Objectives Energy drinks have been anecdotally associated with deleterious cardiovascular health outcomes. These drinks contain ingredients which could affect glycemic response to the carbohydrate content. The aim of this study was to determine if acute exercise would alter the glycemic and physiological response to the consumption of Monster Energy. Methods Following an overnight fast, human subjects (19.1 ± 1.4 years; 30 female; 5 male) were randomized to exercise on a stationary bike at 33% of their predicted VO2 max for 10 minutes with a five minute sitting rest after, or sitting (control) for 15 minutes prior to ingestion of Monster Energy. Blood glucose, heart rate, and blood pressure were measured 0-, 30-, 60-, and 90-minutes postprandially. Data is represented as LSM ± SE with significance analyzed using a t-test, or multiple comparison test (P < 0.05). Results Blood glucose (mg/dL) for control at 0-, 30-, 60-, and 90-minutes 91.5 ± 1.2, 133.7 ± 4.3, 96.3 ± 4.2, and 82.4 ± 1.8 mg/dL, respectively. For those receiving bike exercise prior to ingestion blood glucose was 92.2 ± 1.2, 126.6 ± 3.8, 92.5 ± 2.3, 84.0 ± 1.8 mg/dL. Within group significance in both groups was observed between 0 and 30, 30 and 60, and 60 and 90, for control only, there were no significant blood glucose differences observed between groups across time. Heart rate for control at 0-, 30-, 60-, and 90-minutes was 78.0 ± 3.1, 78.2 ± 2.5, 78.6 ± 2.6, and 74.4 ± 1.9 respectively. For those receiving bike exercise prior to ingestion heart rate was 88.7 ± 3.71, 85.5 ± 2.7, 83.1 ± 2.3, and 80.3 ± 2.9, with significance between 0 and 90 minutes. Mean arterial blood pressure for control at 0-, 30-, 60-, and 90-minutes was 86.8 ± 2.6, 89.2 ± 2.1, 89.2 ± 2.5, and 87.6 ± 2.6. For those receiving bike exercise prior to ingestion blood pressure was 90.6 ± 3.1, 88.98 ± 2.3, 88.2 ± 2.0, and 87.0 ± 2.9 with no significant differences. Conclusions Exercise probably does not alter the glycemic and physiological response to energy drinks. Funding Sources WSU Biology Department.

Introduction: Energy drink usage has been linked to emergency room visits and deaths. Cardiovascular and neurological adverse effects are among the most frequently reported, warranting further exploration of risk factors and cardiovascular outcomes. Hypothesis: We assessed the hypothesis that energy drinks and panax ginseng may contribute to significant electrocardiographic and blood pressure changes in healthy individuals. Methods: This was a randomized, double blinded, placebo controlled, crossover study where young healthy volunteers consumed 3 different study drinks on different days. The interventions included 32 ounces of an energy drink, control drink with 800 mg of panax ginseng or a matching placebo drink, all of which were consumed over a 45 minute period. Primary endpoints of interest were QTc interval and systolic blood pressure. Secondary endpoints included QT interval, PR interval, QRS duration, heart rate, and diastolic blood pressure. All endpoints were assessed at baseline, 1, 2, 3.5, and 5.5 hours post-study drink administration. Results: Twenty seven volunteers completed the study. A significant increase in QTc interval 2 hours post energy drink consumption was evident when compared to placebo (3.37±10.7 msec and -3.19±11.8 msec respectively; p=0.030). Similarly, systolic blood pressure 2 hours post energy drink consumption increased when compared to placebo (2.00±6.37 mmHg and -2.67±5.83 mmHg respectively; p=0.014). The PR interval significantly reduced over a 2 hour period post energy drink use in a clinically non-meaningful manner. Heart rate at 2 hours was not significantly higher in the energy drink group. The QT interval, QRS interval and diastolic blood pressure were not impacted at any time across groups. Conclusions: In conclusion, certain energy drinks consumed at a high volume can significantly increase the QTc interval and systolic blood pressure by over 6 msec and 4 mmHg respectively. Panax ginseng does not have a significant impact on ECG or blood pressure parameters. Future studies are warranted to delineate the electrophysiological and hemodynamic risks of certain energy drinks consumed at different concentrations and durations.

Energy Drink Consumption

Introduction: Energy drinks are presumed to enhance energy, physical endurance, mood, and boost metabolism. Serious health risks have been reported with energy drink consumption such as myocardial infarction, cardiac arrest, stroke, seizures, and arrhythmias. More than 20,000 emergency department visits related to energy drink consumption were reported in 2011. Little is known about the possible pathophysiological mechanisms and adverse events associated with energy drinks. Unlike the tobacco and alcohol industry, there are limited restrictions regulating the purchasing and marketing of these drinks. Purpose: To determine if consumption of energy drinks alter; vital signs (blood pressure, temperature), electrolytes (magnesium, potassium, calcium), activated bleeding time (ACT), or cardiac responses measured with a 12-lead electrocardiographic (ECG) Holter. Method: Subjects consumed two-16 ounce cans of an energy drink within one hour and remained in the lab where data was collected at base line (BL) and then during four hours post consumption (PC). Vital signs were taken every 30 minutes; blood samples were collected at BL, one, two and four hours PC and ECG data was collected throughout the entire study period. Paired students t-test and a corresponding non-parametric test (Wilcoxon signed rank) were used for analysis of the data. Results: Fourteen healthy young subjects were recruited (mean age 28.6 years). Systolic blood pressure (BL=132, ±7.83; PC= 151, ±11.21; p=.001); QTc interval (BL=423, ±22.74; PC=503, ±24.56; p<.001); magnesium level (BL 2.04, ± 0.09; PC=2.13, ±0.15; p=.05); and calcium level (BL=9.31, ±.28; PC=9.52, ±.22; p=.018) significantly increased from BL. While potassium and ACT fluctuated (increase and decrease) no significant changes were observed. Eight of the fourteen subjects (57%) developed a QTc >500 milliseconds PC. Conclusions: In our sample, consumption of energy drinks increased systolic blood pressure, serum magnesium and calcium, and resulted in repolarization abnormalities. Because these physiological responses can lead to arrhythmias and other abnormal cardiac responses, further study in a larger sample is needed to determine the effects and possible consequences of energy drink consumption.

Introduction: Cardiovascular disease is the number one cause of death globally with an incidence of adolescents and young adults in Indonesia as many as 153.705 cases. Central obesity is associated with the risk of cardiovascular disease due to increase in fasting blood glucose levels, cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and blood pressure. Aims: to determine the correlation between waist circumference and fasting blood glucose levels, triglyceride levels, and blood pressure in young adults. Method: This analytic study with a cross-sectional approach involved 53 young adult subjects (18-25 years old). Waist circumference is measured using a tape measure. Blood sugar and triglyceride levels were measured using Cobas® 6000 analyzer machine from blood samples of subjects after fasting for 8-12 hours. Blood pressure data are obtained by measurement using aneroid sphygmomanometer. Results: In this study, the mean waist circumference of the research subjects was 77,4 cm. No correlation was found between waist circumference and fasting blood sugar levels (p = 0,159). However, a positive correlation was found between waist circumference and triglyceride levels (p = 0,008; r = 0,332), between waist circumference and systolic blood pressure (p = 0,049; r = 0,230), and between waist circumference and diastolic blood pressure (p = 0,017; r = 0,293). Conclusion: waist circumference is positively correlated with triglyceride levels and blood pressure, but does not correlate with fasting blood sugar levels.

Background. Due to the frequent development of neuropathy in diabetic patients, it is believed that this category of patients is characterized by a high incidence of atypical acute coronary syndrome, but data about this are quite contradictory. The purpose of the study was to determine pain syndrome features and its severity in patients with acute coronary syndrome and diabetes mellitus. Materials and methods. The study involved 24 patients with diabetes (19 men and 5 women) aged 45–83 years, hospitalized urgently for the acute coronary syndrome. Assessment of pain syndrome was performed at the time of hospitalization and immediately after coronary artery revascularization according to the following criteria: visual analogue scale (VAS), numerical rating scale (NRS), clinical data (sweating, tremor, blood pressure, pulse), blood glucose level. Results. Most patients (87.5 %) at the time of hospitalization complained of chest pain, the rest were not bothered by any pain. Patients described pain as “burning” (29.17 %), “squeezing” (29.17 %), “tightness” (25.0 %), “tingling” (4.17 %). There were also complaints of difficulty breathing (12.5 %), shortness of breath (12.5 %), palpitations (41.67 %), excessive sweating (16.67 %). There was no statistically significant difference between the results of pain assessment by VAS and NRS (p > 0.1). The results of the subjective assessment of pain syndrome by VAS and NRS indicate that before revascularization, moderate and severe pain occurred with equal frequency. There were no statistically significant fluctuations in blood pressure and heart rate before and after the intervention in patients with different pain severity (p > 0.1). At the time of hospitalization, the mean systolic blood pressure was 135.71 ± 18.70 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure was 83.71 ± 14.67 mmHg, heart rate was 73.08 ± 11.35 bpm. The mean value of glycemia at the time of hospitalization was 8.19 ± 3.45 mmol/l (8.17 ± 3.61 mmol/l in men, 8.28 ± 3.13 mmol/l in women). Blood glucose level ≥ 10.0 mmol/l was detected in 5 patients, i.e. in 20.83 % of all patients. The majority of these individuals had severe pain (60.0 %). Conclusions. In patients with myocardial infarction and diabetes mellitus, the typical clinical picture of ACS (87.5 %) prevailed over the painless form. Before revascularization, moderate and severe pain occurred with equal frequency; there is no statistical difference between blood pressure, heart rate and blood glucose level (p > 0.1) in patients with severe and moderate pain. Hyperglycemia (≥ 10.0 mmol/l) was detected in 20.83 % of patients, most of them had severe pain (60.0 %). The lack of difference between the values of the studied pain criteria may be due to the sample size, the low sensitivity of the criteria, the development of diabetic neuropathy. As a result, there is a need for further study of the phenomenon of pain syndrome in patients with ACS and diabetes mellitus.
