Abstract Background: Energy drinks constitute a distinct class of non- alcoholic functional beverages formulated to enhance mental alertness, cognitive processing and physical stamina.
Objective: The present study was conducted to determine the association between demographic variables (Age and academic stream of study) and the level of knowledge and consumption practices among college students.
Methodology: A descriptive, cross sectional research design was adopted. A total sample of 100 participants, both male and female students between the age group of 18 -25 years were selected through simple random sampling technique. The data was collected through offline self-administered questionnaires. The data obtained was complied into excel sheet and subjected to statistical analysis using chi-square test.
Results: It was observed that out of 100 participants, a majority demonstrated a “Good” level of knowledge (76%, n= 76) regarding energy drinks, while 24%(n=24) falls into “moderate” and “poor” knowledge category. A chi-square test reveals that no statistically significant association between student’s stream of study and their knowledge level (p = 0.527), because p value is more than the standard significance threshold (p >0.05). over half of participants (54%) reported occasional intake, while 22% (n = 22) were engaged in frequent consumption. The remaining 24% (n = 24) reported never consuming these beverages. A chi-square test showed a statistically significant association between age and consumption practices (p = 0.02), it indicates consumption patterns varied across age groups.
Conclusion: Students showed high levels of knowledge about energy drinks across all academic streams. But age plays an important role in how often they consumed them. Therefore, highlighting the need for age-targeted public health interventions.
