Trucking transport drivers operating on the roads of North America that have gotten use to ingesting so-called energy drinks in order to fight drowsiness might want to rethink this strategy. Older owner operator trucking professionals in decades past certainly were guilty of using coffee as a stimulant to try to fight drowsiness, but there are reports coming in of a new generation of trailer trucking drivers on the roads of North America that could be implementing so-called energy drinks more and more in order to combat fatigue.
There’s a growing belief in some sectors of the freight carrier industry and scientific world though that so-called energy drinks could be a load-gun of sorts for drivers who decide to skip a few hours of sleep in favour of a stimulating drink. This could mean that there could be a growing problem with the use of so-called energy drinks by transport drivers that we need to be aware of and researchers and scientists are preparing studies to see if they can find out the facts concerning the use of so-called energy drinks.
Researchers at the John Hopkins University of School of Medicine are currently calling for eye-catching labeling for energy drinks listing caffeine doses and warning of potential risks for users. They are also calling for doctors and other professionals to become informed about the symtoms that can be associated with the use of so-called energy drinks, like nervousness, anxiety, restlessness, insomnia, upset stomach, tremors, tachardia (rapid heart beat) and agitation.
