The Caffeine Content of Energy Drinks in accordance with the Information on the Package Label

Abstract

Six diferent brands of energy drinks (EDs) were analyzed to determine the concentration of cafeine in accordance with the information on the package label. Approximately 28.1 milligrams per 100 milliliters (mg/100 ml) of cafeine was present in the Mo energy drink brand, which was nearly 1.5 times the cafeine concentration listed on the product label. Te energy drink with the highest cafeine content was Dragon, which contained 30.1 mg/100 ml, or a total of 150.5 mg per 500 ml bottle. Manufacturers of energy drinks (EDs) should accurately list the amount of cafeine and other ingredients on the product label so that consumers know how much of each ingredient they are taking. Taking too much cafeine can be bad for your health.
