What is an energy drink?

Energy drinks are functional beverages that a range of people can enjoy. Energy drinks are formulated for people looking for a product that provides additional mental and physical stimulation for a short period of time.

Even though most energy drinks, on average, contain less caffeine than a similarly sized cup of coffee, energy drink manufacturers do not recommend energy drinks to be consumed by children, pregnant or breastfeeding women or people who are sensitive to caffeine. This information is included on the label of energy drinks in accordance with Health Canada Regulations.
