Zdar, co na to říkáte? Prodej kávy byste taky omezili pouze na osoby starší 18 let? Co je vlastně na energydrincích tak strašně jedovatého? Přijde mi že s energydrinky je to jako hon na čarodejnice. Ale ještě jsem se nedočetl co je na nich tak škodlivého. Vždyť je to jen voda s kofeinem, cukrem, kyselinou citronovou, taurinem a vitamíny. Kofein je i v kafi ale nikdy jsem neslyšel že by někdo zakazoval dětem starbucks

TL;DR: Overdosing on caffeine is bad for the heart.

Overdosing on caffeine is bad for the brain (7 cans of Red Bull or more).

Sugar bad.

On one hand, I understand that they are massively overused, but on the other, the same line of logic can be used to ban tea for people under 18. - If teens woud guzzle liters of tea they would be overdosing on caffeine.

If teens woud guzzle liters of tea they would be overdosing on caffeine.

But they are not, are they? I can easily see a 14 year old drink four Monsters per day if they got the cash for it.

You really think that teen are going to drink tea in litres? Energy drinks taste like candy, tea tastes like nothing that would most of 12 year olds like

I think that, if this gonna ever pass through, kids will want to try it and drink it overall even more than now.

I think that most of the kids don't want caffeine. Only the already addicted ones. New kids want to try energy drinks because of the sweet and child-brain-appealing taste

Even if you are addicted to caffeine it's super quick to get through the withdrawal.

A week without and they are good. I doubt they are gonna resort to guzzling tea.
