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.

“The affected products are being recalled from the marketplace due to various non-compliances related to caffeine content and labelling requirements,” the CFIA said in a recall warning posted on its site.Prime Energy has been in the spotlight because it was co-founded by social media stars Logan Paul and KSI, who have millions of young fans.

Caffeinated energy drinks are considered supplemented food and are therefore regulated by the CFIA, which also cited all six beverages for not including English and French on their labels. Sting has only Vietnamese characters. By comparison, a can of Coke has 34 mgs of caffeine, six timesless thanthe amount in a serving of Prime Energy.

House said parents should talk to their children about the negative effects of caffeine, including sleep disturbances, but that’s all the more challenging with teens, including her 16-year-old son, because they tend to be out on their own and follow what their friends are doing.
