In a significant health policy shift, several countries are moving towards banning the sale of energy drinks to minors.

The decision comes after a series of studies linked excessive consumption of these beverages to serious health issues, including heart problems, anxiety disorders, and sleep disturbances in young people.

Governments are now considering legislation that would restrict the sale of energy drinks to individuals under the age of 18, aiming to mitigate these health risks.

Some regions have already implemented these bans, reporting early positive impacts on youth health and wellbeing.

This move is part of a broader effort to promote healthier lifestyles among the younger population.
