Seizures, brain bleeds and sudden cardiac death the effects of over-the-counter booze
“I vividly remember a long-haul driver who consumed 14 cans of energy drink and was hospitalized for acute heart failure. Fortunately, everything ended happily,” R. Kubilius wrote on his personal Facebook account.
“Energy drinks are drinks that look like soft drinks, with a high concentration of caffeine and are enriched with stimulating additives – sugar, taurine, glucuronolactone, group B vitamins, L-carnitine, sucrose, as well as ginseng, guarana, mate tea, cocoa, kola nut or ginkgo”, said R. Kubilius.
He gave a specific example showing that energy drinks are a real caffeine bomb.
330 ml. a can of cola contains 45 mg of caffeine, a cup of coffee contains 80 mg, and a 500 ml energy drink contains 150 mg of caffeine!
The professor also noted that the praise of energy drink manufacturers for their product raises doubts. So far, there is a lack of scientific evidence supporting the benefits of energy drinks.
“It appears that the most insidious is precisely the explosive negative health effects of high concentrations of caffeine and additives.”
The consequences of regular and long-term consumption of energy drinks are not well known, especially the dangerous effects on teenagers – perhaps the most numerous group of users of these drinks – have not been sufficiently studied,” noted R.

18 million people die every year in the world
Stating that cardiovascular diseases are not a disease but a choice, Prof. Dr. Mehmet Akbulut: “Cardiovascular diseases, in particular, are among the main diseases that cause disability, deterioration in quality of life and significant economic expenses in the world and in the country.
Approximately 18 million people die from cardiovascular diseases every year worldwide. We estimate that the number of deaths from diseases will increase exponentially by 2030, approaching 30 million. In other words, it is estimated that a population equivalent to one third of Turkey will die from this disease every year. Unfortunately, 75 percent of these deaths will occur in underdeveloped or developing countries. While approximately 460,000 deaths occur in the country every year, approximately 37 percent of these deaths are caused by cardiovascular diseases.
Causes of the disease

Automotive, the Government was in Beijing to court Chinese manufacturers
“We think that a very open, frank, direct and constructive discussion should be developed with Stellantis so that it designs an industrial plan that aims to reaffirm its Italian roots”, said Adolfo Urso, minister of Made in Italy, at the end of the inauguration of the ‘AI4Industry’ Foundation for Artificial Intelligence in Turin. The minister then reiterated that the Government is working to ensure that one million cars a year can be produced in Italy and with this in mind he has also started talks with foreign and in particular Chinese car manufacturers.
“Italy is the country that has the widest gap in Europe between produced and registered cars. We must fill this gap. At the same time we also have an extraordinary component system which I think is the best in the world for the quality it expresses. it is an industrial ecosystem for anyone who wants to make cars in our country, obviously with an Italian component that can then truly boast the symbol of Made in Italy”, explained Urso, “It is a clear project that we have illustrated since the first meeting of the automotive table . A delegation from the ministry was in Beijing and met with several car manufacturers who have expressed their intention to invest in Europe.”

Rising Drug Overdose and Gun Violence Deaths Create Crisis for Children, Study Finds
The Silent Suffering: The Hidden Burden of Parental Loss from Drug Overdoses and Gun Violence
Deaths from drug overdoses and firearm-related injuries have reached alarming levels in the United States, creating a “double burden” for children grappling with an increased risk of losing their parents and facing their own mortality, according to a groundbreaking study.
A new research published in the esteemed medical journal JAMA reveals that over the past two decades, more than 1 million children have experienced the devastating loss of a parent due to fatal drug overdoses or gun violence. Shockingly, this burden has escalated significantly over time.
- Nearly 100,000 children lost parents to drug overdoses or gun violence in 2020 alone – almost three times more than in 1999.
- In 2020, these two causes accounted for 23% of all parental losses – nearly double the share from two decades ago.
Grimly, direct data on the number of children affected by parental deaths due to drugs or firearms is not readily available. Nonetheless, this study utilized federal mortality data and population demographics coupled with fertility statistics to estimate the scale of this epidemic silently plaguing our nation.
Widening Racial Disparities: Alarming Increase in Child Deaths Across the U.S., Reports The New York Times
Racial disparities are deepening the alarming rise in child deaths across the United States, revealing a stark reality that demands immediate attention. Recent data suggests that children from minority communities face disproportionate health risks, resulting in a heartbreaking upward trend in mortality rates.
Inequities Exposed
The distressing statistics, obtained from comprehensive research, reveal a disturbing truth about the widening gap between racial groups when it comes to child mortality rates. Although the U.S. has made significant strides in improving child health overall, these advancements are not being swiftly reflected across all communities.
Dissecting the Alarming Numbers
Delving into the details, it becomes even more apparent that racial disparities are a significant factor in the rise in child deaths. Data collected from various sources points to stark contrasts in mortality rates between different racial and ethnic groups. African American children, for example, face a mortality rate nearly two times higher compared to their white counterparts.
Access to Quality Healthcare
One of the key contributors to the rising disparities is the glaring gap in access to quality healthcare services. Minority communities often find themselves at a disadvantage, experiencing challenges in obtaining affordable, comprehensive healthcare for their children.
7 tips for living a longer life (and avoiding inflammation)
Scientists are clear: to age in good health and improve your life expectancy, it is imperative to avoid generalized inflammation of the body. This phenomenon would in fact be a contributing factor for many health concerns – cardiovascular disorders, senile dementia, loss of muscle mass, repeated bacterial and viral infections, etc.
To limit the risk of developing this famous generalized inflammation of the body, the University of Birmingham (in Great Britain) offers 7 tips that are not difficult to apply on a daily basis:
Move as often as possible
In addition to being excellent for the figure as well as for preventing many cardiovascular diseases (type 2 diabetes, for example), physical activity also helps reduce inflammation in the body. Researchers at the University of Birmingham recommend getting at least 150 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity each week.
Monitor your weight
Excess fat mass promotes generalized inflammation in the body. Indeed, adipose tissues naturally produce pro-inflammatory cytokines. British researchers therefore recommend adopting a varied and balanced diet to reduce this phenomenon.
Eat more fruits and vegetables
It’s proven: the Mediterranean diet (which emphasizes fruits and vegetables, and especially green leafy vegetables like spinach or kale) reduces markers of inflammation in the body.
