Warning issued to parents of kids trying Prime energy drink

The Prime energy drink, which was launched by English YouTuber KSI and American YouTuber Logan Paul last year, is set to arrive in the UK soon - and a warning to parents has already been issued.

The energy version of Prime isn't officially sold in major supermarkets in the UK yet, but smaller corner shops like the famous Wakey Wines in Wakefield have been selling them for £100 per can. "Children don't need energy drinks anyway – they have plenty of energy! If your child is lacking in energy take them to see their GP, do not give them an energy drink.

It can also interfere with sleep, which children need plenty of. She added: "Caffeine results in an increased need to pass urine, so will not help at school with more trips to the toilet and could contribute to bed wetting." Prime is marketed as zero sugar and low calorie, but it's got sucralose, which is an "artificial sweetener which has been shown to alter the gut microbiome and increase levels of systemic inflammation".
