　　US teen died after drinking caffeine too quickly, coroner says

　　咖啡因竟能诱发心律失常：少年两小时喝三种饮料丢了性命

　　A healthy teenager in the US state of South Carolina died from drinking several highly-caffeinated drinks too quickly, a coroner has ruled.

　　美国南加州的一名健康青少年由于快速饮用了多种含高深度咖啡因的饮料而身亡，据一名验尸官称。

　　Davis Allen Cripe collapsed at a high school in April after drinking a McDonald’s latte, a large Mountain Dew soft drink and an energy drink in just under two hours, Gary Watts said.

　　4月，Davis Allen Cripe在一所高中死亡，Gary Watts指出，两小时前他喝了一杯麦当劳的拿铁咖啡，一杯山露威士忌酒和一杯能量饮料。

　　The 16-year-old died from a "caffeine-induced cardiac event causing a probable arrhythmia".

　　这位16岁少年死于“咖啡因含量过高导致心律失常”。

　　He had no pre-existing heart condition.

　　此前他身体健康，无心脏疾病。

　　The teenager weighed 90kg but would not have been considered morbidly obese, Mr Watts said.

　　Watts说，这位少年体重90公斤，但并不是超级肥胖。

　　"This is not a caffeine overdose," Mr Watts told Reuters news agency.

　　Watts接受路透社采访时说，“这并不算是过量。”

　　"We’re not saying that it was the total amount of caffeine in the system, it was just the way that it was ingested over that short period of time, and the chugging of the energy drink at the end was what the issue was with the cardiac arrhythmia."

　　“并不是他体内的咖啡因含量让他死亡，只是因为是在那么短时间内摄入的，以及后面的那杯能量饮料，导致他心律失常。”

　　Caffeine would probably not have been seen as a factor in the teenager’s death if witnesses had not been able to tell officials what he had been drinking before his death, the Richland County coroner said.

　　Richland郡的验尸官说，要不是见证人告诉官员他在死前喝了那些饮料，通常咖啡因不会被认为是这名少年的死因。

　　The main witness could not say which brand of energy drink Davis drank.

　　这位主要见证人不能指出Davis喝的是哪种品牌的能量饮料。

　　"We’re not trying to speak out totally against caffeine," Mr Watts said. "We believe people need to pay attention to their caffeine intake and how they do it, just as they do with alcohol or cigarettes."

　　Watts说，“我们不是说要完全禁止咖啡因。我们认为人们应当注意咖啡因的摄入量，以及如何饮用它们，就像重视酒精和烟一样。”

　　Most energy drinks contain a caffeine equivalent of three cups of coffee and as much as 14 teaspoons of sugar.

　　许多能量饮料含有约等同于三杯咖啡量的咖啡因，以及14茶匙的糖。

　　Davis may have consumed about 470mg of caffeine in just under two hours, based on statistics from the website caffeineinformer.com.

　　基于caffeineinformer网站的数据分析，Davis在两小时内摄入了470毫克的咖啡因。

　　And once you’ve drunk it, it will take hours to clear it from your system.

　　一旦喝下去，你的身体系统需要数小时来分解它。

　　Having a few cups of coffee or other caffeinated drinks a day is considered perfectly safe. But drinking too much or lots in a short space of time is risky.

　　一天喝上几杯咖啡或者其他一些含咖啡因的饮料是安全的，但是喝太多，或者在太短时间内喝下去，都是具有风险的。

　　You can overdose on caffeine and it is possible to die if you ingest too much.

　　你会可能对咖啡因上瘾，如果摄入太多你会死亡。

　　Up to 400mg of caffeine a day appears to be safe for most healthy adults. That’s roughly the amount of caffeine in four cups of brewed coffee, 10 cans of Coca-Cola or two "energy shot" drinks (although check the caffeine content of the beverage as it can vary).

　　对于大多数成年人来说，每天最多摄入400豪克的咖啡因是安全的。这大约是4杯煮咖啡、10罐可口可乐或者是两瓶“能量”饮料的量(由于含量不同，最好确认每种饮料中咖啡因的含量)。

　　Adolescents and pregnant women are advised to have less than this, though. Caffeinated drinks are unsuitable for toddlers and young children.

　　不过，青少年和孕妇的摄入量应当低于这个标准。咖啡因饮料不适合婴幼儿饮用。
