Quite apart from the energy given out by the intake of the high concentration of the sugars, fructose and glucose and about 27mg of it couple with 0.03% caffeine in energy drinks which alone would make one feel more awake/alert with more energy.

But with the other active ingredient Taurine 0.4%, which is approx; 1000mg is a pretty potent mixture. Taurine is a stimulant that actually enhances proper maintenance and functioning of skeletal muscles. It also aids in the manufacture of of vitamin-B.

This would give construction workers and any other workers of similar jobs that requirie more energy that the average job, albeit short-lived.

It is a very much needed, essential amino sulphonic group acid, being produced naturally albeit very slowly by our bodies and also plays a key role in the correct functioning of the vascular system, the heart, the brain, the gallbladder and our eyes. Taurine gets taken out through our urine in quite high quantities.

Therefore it is of great benefit to take high energy drinks to give you a'high energy' feeling fairly quickly as a way of replacing this 'lost' taurine much quicker than out body's can replace it.
