Energy drinks: the hidden danger

Why is this important?

Heart failure. Seizures. Sleep disorders. Energy drinks have been linked to all these serious health conditions and, in some cases, death. [1]

So why do millions in Europe, including two thirds of teenagers and one in every five children, consume them? [2]

Because the companies making billions off them use enchanting words like ‘guarana’ to conceal the reality. They commission influencers to attract people to their addictive products. And they fight hard against any regulation. 

Leaders have finally turned their attention to these fatal beverages. [4] The Commission just published a new health plan, and politicians are considering new rules, like ensuring these drinks are out of reach for teenagers. But the companies are preparing to step up their fight.

It took people power to get us to this point - where leaders are taking these fatal drinks seriously. But as companies pour millions to pump their propaganda, we need to rise in the thousands to challenge them. 

Every signature is a voice calling out companies who put profit before people. Take action in just a few seconds!
