"It wasn't until a complete examination of his lifestyle with his doctors that anyone thought to ask about his caffeine intake, which was soon identified as the soul cause of his stroke. We attribute this patient's stroke to the effects of his energy drink consumption because through thorough investigations using multiple diagnostic methods we ruled out any other identifiable cause, the doctors wrote."
"After going a week without any energy drinks, doctors said his blood pressure began returning to normal. After getting off the juice for good, the man has made a complete recovery, though he does still have some lasting numbness on his left side. I obviously wasn't aware of the dangers drinking energy drinks were causing to myself, [I] have been left with numbness [in my] left hand side hand and fingers, foot and toes even after eight years, the man said in the report."
A man in his 50s who drank eight energy drinks daily consumed about 1,280 mg of caffeine per day, more than three times the healthy limit. He developed sudden left-sided numbness and suffered a stroke, presenting with blood pressure of 254/150, well above hypertensive crisis thresholds. Initial hospitalization lasted three days, but persistent numbness and high blood pressure led to readmission. A lifestyle review identified excessive caffeine intake as the sole cause after other causes were ruled out through multiple diagnostic methods. After one week without energy drinks, his blood pressure began returning to normal, and he eventually made a full recovery, though lingering left-side numbness persisted after eight years.
