One of the supplements containing energy drinks is caffeine, which add energy to function. Therefore, at certain dose supplements can also be classified as doping.
Caffeine was included in the list of doping, but since 2004 were classified as material that must be monitored. This means that a new caffeine referred to as doping levels are achieved when 12 mcg in 1 mL of blood.
"Because it contains caffeine, sports drinks can add energy. But the same effect can also be obtained from drinking coffee or tea, so there are certain criteria to be referred to doping,".
Simply stated, a substance classified as a doping causes an increase in stamina when out of the ordinary. Caffeine can produce such effects, but certainly not enough just to 1-2 cups of coffee or energy drinks.
"The content of caffeine in energy drinks about 50 mg, whereas in the instant coffee 80-135 mg. Level 12 mcg / mL is achieved when 6-8 cups of coffee drunk in one sitting," said Dr. Michael who once worked with Indonesian badminton team in the year 1994 - 2001.
The same thing applies to energy drinks. During the acceptable limit, safe supplements that contain caffeine consumed by athletes and will not be considered as doping.
In addition to caffeine, there is some content in energy drinks are often added to increase power. Among these are vitamin B complex, which plays an important role in the metabolism / formation energy.
