Katie Donnell, from Florida in the US, took a caffeine supplement, followed by up to three energy drinks a day as well as the odd coffee, in order to fuel her workouts.
A mother blames energy drinks for her healthy 28-year-old daughter's fatal heart attack, fueled by her daily caffeine supplement, multiple energy drink, and occasional coffee consumption to enhance workouts.

The mother urges a ban on energy drinks, echoing concerns as the government considers restrictions on sales to minors.
