The American Heart Association said its analysis of FDA reports linked energy drinks and pre-workout supplements to a higher incidence of heart attacks, cardiac arrest and arrhythmias among adults aged 18 to 34, based on data reviewed in Chicago, Illinois. Earlier reports from local Fox stations and national outlets highlighted the same findings, noting that nearly half of the serious cardiac incidents involving these products occurred in the 18-34 age group.
