An influencer-backed energy drink that has earned viral popularity among children is facing scrutiny from lawmakers and health experts over its potentially dangerous levels of caffeine.

After a night with very little sleep, I took four standard caffeine pills. The recommended amount was two. Quite by accident, I now hold the world’s record for 100-yard dash, senior division.

You can look it up.

"Logan Paul is a scammer of the first rank."

And he is playing that to his advantage, because people want to see his skull knocked out of his head, hopefully Ricochet or Collins misses a cue and clotheslines him next time in WWE, or Nunes or even Tyson finally gets it done in the ring that counts.

Meanwhile, I can't support anything Demon Schuster does, so this smells terribly of "You haven't paid your political grift tax yet."

200 mg caffeine. Same as Vivarin. Even if Logan Paul is a jerk, he should not be singled out for government attack.

I tried one of those small bottles of 5-hour Energy drink.
It left me feeling weird and unsteady. Never tried it again.

I always hope that reporters may one day learn how to craft titles and sentences correctly. They majored in journalism because they weren’t bright enough to handle anything else; yet, they can’t even handle what they did manage, somehow, to pass.
