Stop selling high energy drinks to children

Stop selling High Energy Drinks to children under 16

Why is this important?

It contains too much caffeine in it that can give potential harm to children. It changes the way the heart beats and drinking a can of energy drink is enough to give a child caffeine poisoning.

A local shop sold it to my 8 year old daughter who also bought a can for my grandson aged 7 it states on the can NOT to be given to children OR pregnant women, shops are flouting the warnings on the can and still selling it to children of which should not happen, hence why I set up this petition.

I had hoped for more signatures and hope those that have signed it could pass this link on and get them to sign it as these drinks contain as much or more caffeine in them than a cup of coffee and can be fatal not just in children but in pregnant women too.
