Q: Do energy drinks cause your blood pressure to go up?
A: Energy drinks typically contain some caffeine. Large amounts of caffeine can cause the heart to beat faster and blood pressure to elevate. It is always smart to read the labels to find out what you are really drinking. Many people are surprised to find out how much caffeine is contained in the soft drink Mountain Dew.
