Background: Energy drinks (EDs), functional beverages with high concentrations of caffeine, can cause health risks. This study examined the frequency of ED consumption and related factors in Korean adolescents.
Methods: Data from the 10th-13th Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey was used, and a total of 137,101 boys and 130,806 girls were included in the final analyses. Differences in ED consumption and asso- ciated factors were analyzed using the Rao-Scott chi- square test and a multivariate logistic regression analysis, reflecting of the complex sample design.
Results: In total, 17.3% boys and 12.9% girls consumed EDs more than once a week (P<0.001). In particular, 24.2% of all high-school students in the 12th grade consumed more than three EDs a week. After adjusting for confounding factors, a multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that higher ED consumption was sig- nificantly associated with a higher soda, sweet-drink, and fast food intake; skipping breakfast; a lower vegeta- ble intake; depression; suicidal thoughts; sleep deprivation; and increased smoking and alcohol drinking.
Conclusions: ED consumption is associated with undesirable dietary-, lifestyle-, and mental health-related be- haviors, suggesting the need for appropriate nutrition education in adolescents.
