Needed FDA Regulation of Energy Drinks

There is no proof that sugar gives you more energy and you can even continue to wake up. Sugar is often mistaken for rapid energy acquisition, but has never been proven. Experts say caffeine is the most widely used medicine in the world, and many people get caffeine through coffee, energy drinks and soda. Caffeine is an odorless bitter sweetener contained in coffee beans, cocoa beans, tea leaves, and cola nuts. The word coffee comes from Arabic "quhwah".

Energy drinks are dietary supplements and are not regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This means that you do not have to comply with the FDA's strict limits on potentially harmful ingredients such as caffeine (the main ingredient of energy drinks) that a soda manufacturer must follow. (Park, 2011) Based on the above studies, it can be concluded that component levels are still considered to be safe, irresponsibly consumed, even though the components contained in the energy drink are harmful.

The amount of caffeine in energy drinks is difficult to decide, as many caffeine is sold as supplements rather than food, and it fluctuates mainly with FDA regulations and labeling laws. The FDA does not allow soda to contain more than 0.02% caffeine, but energy drinks are not subject to this restriction. For a while health professionals were trying to make us pay attention to the problems of children drinking energy drinks. In 2011, the Journal of Pediatrics published a terrible report entitled "The Impact of Energy Drinks on Health on Children, Adolescents and Adolescents". The author also specifically warns parents that these drinks may be dangerous for heart disease, diabetes or ADHD children.

A 14 - year - old Maryland girl, Anais Frunier, died of two cans of monster energy drink, died of heart disease due to heart disease, parents complained about the company. Therefore, the US Food and Drug Administration is investigating four other people who believe that the deceased and the authorities are related to monster drinks. You can not miss a monster drink on the shelf with names like Gothic style logo, vivid colors, and Java Monster, Lo-Carb Monster, Monster Rehab. In the advertisement of magazines and bulletin boards, there is a slogan "release the beast" and "thinnest energy supply on the earth". And the monster's banner adorns almost all extreme sports events
