(Washington, D.C.)
The Food and Drug Administration is investigating reports of 13 deaths possibly linked to so-called "energy shots" and cautioning consumers to talk to their doctors before they take them or other energy drinks.If the danger continues, I suspect that the feds will pass a new law regulating energy drinks.
The agency has received 92 reports that cite illnesses, hospitalizations and deaths after consumption of a product marketed as 5-Hour Energy. The FDA has also received reports that cited the highly caffeinated Monster Energy Drink in five deaths and one non-fatal heart attack.

The old saying says "too much of a good thing is no good". Something new people seem to ignore.
I'm a firm believer in listening to what ancestors have to say, more often than not they're right.
