What the petition asks
The World Health Organisation carried out a review of the literature surrounding energy drinks & found most of potential health risks are related to the caffeine content. In Sweden they are restricted to being sold in pharmacies & are not sold to under 15's.
This information came from NHS choices 2014 (warnings issued over energy drinks) They are likely to become a serious public health issue in the future if they are not more heavily regulated.
