Energy drinks on a supermarket shelf in New York

---

Energy drinks on a supermarket shelf on Sunday, July 18, 2010. The drinks, which were originally marketed to clubbers and extreme-sports enthusiasts, have entered the mainstream, appealing to health-minded consumers. The drinks are very high in caffeine and contain other ingredients deemed exotic such as taurine, glucosamine and ginseng. The health benefits of the ingredients has not been clinically proven.
