    What do you base this on? What tests have you done or read? An opinion is not medical science.

      An opinion is not medical science.

      Yes I said its an opinion, I made no claim it was medical science. My opinion is that in many cases, a teenager consuming reasonable amounts of caffeine is not something to worry about. I base this off of the knowledge I have of caffeine as someone who isn’t a doctor. If you want a doctor’s opinion, you should go to a doctor instead of the internet.

              If people are drinking more than one of these per day, that’s a problem. It should be more like once every few days or optimally, never.

                Have you ever met a 16 year old with the self control to only ever have one of these sorts of drinks per day? Let alone a 16 year old fan of Logan Paul?
