High-caffeine energy drinks will be banned for under-16s in England to prevent harm to children’s health.
The plan will make it illegal to sell energy drinks containing more than 150mg of caffeine per litre to anyone under 16 across all retailers, including online, in shops, restaurants, cafes and vending machines.
According to ministers, a ban could prevent obesity in up to 40,000 children and will help prevent issues such as disrupted sleep, increased anxiety and lack of concentration, as well as poorer school results.
Around 100,000 children are thought to consume at least one high-caffeine energy drink every day.
