Energy drink consumption and sleep parameters in college and university students: a national cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

To investigate the frequency of energy drink (ED) consumption, and the association between ED consumption and selected sleep characteristics and parameters in Norwegian college and university students. We also explored whether these associations varied based on sex.

Design

Cross-sectional.

Setting

Data were gathered from the SHOT2022 study (Students' Health and Well-being Study), a national survey.

Participants

53 266 students, aged 18-35 years, enrolled in higher education in Norway (2022).

Main outcome measures

Estimated marginal means were computed from general linear models investigating the association between ED consumption and continuous sleep outcomes, while log-link binomial regression analysis was used for dichotomous sleep outcomes
