Prime Energy has a very high concentration of caffeine compared to other energy drinks such as Red Bull and Rockstar, which contain 80 milligrams of caffeine in an 8.4-ounce can and 160 milligrams of caffeine in a 16-ounce can.
Children under the age of 12 are not recommended to consume caffeine in any form, and health guidelines recommend that children between the ages of 12 and 18 should not exceed 100 milligrams of caffeine per day.

Side effects

Energy drinks can have side effects such as heart failure, irregular heartbeat, dehydration, anxiety and sleep problems.
Artificial sweeteners also have potential side effects. Consuming them regularly may increase the risk of cardiovascular disease, including heart attack. They can also increase appetite and therefore potentially lead to weight gain. Artificial sweeteners can also harm the liver, affect mood, and cause migraines and headaches.
Although Prime Energy provides a temporary energy boost, side effects, especially those resulting from high caffeine intake, should be kept in mind. Moderation and careful review of ingredients are important.
