All this FDA regulation would do is create needless obstacles for smaller companies and stifle innovation, considering the costs (time, money, etc.) to be reviewed/verified by the FDA.

Then we’d either have to buy energy drinks owned by big corporations or resort to other substances, as was mentioned in a few previous comments.

And no matter how strict the FDA gets, the world is still going to be a dangerous place for people with no common sense.

Or you might see people turning to hard-drugs to get their morning pick-me-up….Starbucks would need to limit its caffeine content also damnit, fairness and all that…

Great… just make one more thing illegal and create one more black market. If this happens, soon enough youll be able to find ‘illegal’ energy drinks with far more caffeine in them than anything you see now

Go to http://www.drinkactweb.com/amybaldridge and order a box of these drinks. FDA wouldn’t touch them cause they’re healthy and work like a champ… PLUS they’re only a buck apiece! Company lets you sign up as a dealer for free and get wholesale prices right away. Grab a piece of this industry!

No way! Energy drinks are about fifth in line for termination behind:

Cigarettes
Alcohol
Pain Killers
and Free Sex

EnergyDrinkoftheMonth will have to start shipping in anonymous cartons soon!

Man, figures this was going to happen eventually. And it also figures that were all to lazy to do something to stop it ourselves. Well, I plan to send a letter. Maybe at the least we can have a petition for people to sign. Put it here on the website and you put in your e-mail. I have seen them before.

hahaha,, I vote for, I’m to lazy to write a letter, but I do think they should leave them alone, if people want to be stupid who are we or anyone else to stop them?

Just drop a no-doz in your favorite energy drink if the FDA plans on reducing the caffeine level in it. Problem solved.

There should be an option for “I agree that caffeine content should be left alone, but manufacturers should put caffeine amount on the label.”

Who can argue that more information is a bad thing???
