Six brands of caffeinated drinks have been recalled in Canada, including a popular energy beverage being promoted by social media influencers.

The Canadian Food Inspection Agency issued a recall notice late Wednesday for Prime Energy, as well as products from 3D Alphaland, 5 Hour Energy, Celsius, GFuel and Sting.

Prime Energy is different from its widely available non-caffeinated and bottled version, Prime Hydration. Health Canada recommends a maximum of 2.5 mg of caffeine per kilogram of body weight for youth up to age 18. But she said caffeinated drinks could be a bigger problem because very young kids, like her nine-year-old son, are being bombarded by ads for Prime Energy when they watch online videos.
