The government of Canada is recalling six different brands of energy drinks, including Prime, over their caffeine content and labeling violations

The government of Canada is recalling six brands of energy drinks, including Prime, over their caffeine content and labeling violations. Canada sets a legal limit on caffeine in energy drinks of 180 milligrams in a single-serving can. Prime Energy, the trendy energy drink made by YouTube stars Logan Paul and KSI, contains 200 milligrams per 12-ounce can – nearly six times as much as in a regular Coca-Cola – and thus violates that country’s limits for supplemented foods.

“We don’t ship or authorize the distribution of Celsius products in Canada, if we ever do in the future, we would be fully compliant with Health Canada regulations,” the company said in an email to CNN. Sting’s parent company said in a statement, “PepsiCo follows the regulations set out by the countries it sells in. PepsiCo Canada does not sell or import STING in Canada.” In response, the Canadian government says it is taking action on unauthorized imports.
