Just for background. IMHO, Logan Paul is a scammer of the first rank.

Coke cans are made of aluminum. I wasn’t aware that aluminum contained caffeine.

They shouldn’t compare it to Coca-Cola, but to Coffee.

https://www.medicinenet.com/how_much_caffeine_is_in_coke_compared_to_coffee/article.htm

Coca-Cola contains only 2.5-3 mg of caffeine per ounce
Diet Coke contains between 3.5-3.75 mg of caffeine per ounce, which is much less than coffee.

Table: Caffeine content of various beverages

Filtered coffee (125 mL/4.4 oz.)______85 mg (60-135)__
Coke (330 mL/11.6 oz.)_____________39 mg (30-48)____

So, this caffeinated drink only has less caffeine than two mugs of coffee.

The drink, like Logan Paul himself is nauseating.

If chuckles is against it I tend to be in favor of it.

Some years ago I was heading back home after spending Christmas with my girlfriend's family. It was a six hour drive back to North Carolina in the dead of night and I felt sleepiness starting to creep over me.

I stopped at a convenience store to get gas, and saw they were selling 5-Hour Energy. I'd never tried it before. So I bought a bottle and took it to my car and drank it.

It turned me into a Kwisatz Haderach. I perceived time and space as I never had before. Took my psyche to places humans aren't prepared for.

God only knows what would happen if I tried a REAL energy drink.

According to Amazon, it has 200 mg. caffeine per can, which is equivalent to 2 cups of coffee.

He just needs to switch it from a drink to an injection & FDA will approve it.

Caffeine is technically among the ‘methylxanthines’. There are both natural methylxanthines and chemical analogues. I assure you that “caffeine” on the label denotes an ingredient which is shipped to the US by the TON in containers originating mostly in Chyna, created in a chemical process resulting in an analogue of natural caffeine.

This is because it is CHEAPER to manufacture; it is also absorbed differently than natural methylxanthines, many of which are derived from Green Tea (denoted as ‘green tea extract’ or the-like on the ingredients label).

“Caffeine can be chemically synthesized in many different ways. The main process involves the chemical synthesis of urea as a raw material which is then combined with different harsh chemicals such as methyl chloride and ethyl acetate. When caffeine is made synthetically, it is produced with a much higher concentrate and is absorbed much faster.”

Unfortunately, green tea extracts are overwhelmingly manufactured in Chyna as well.

Better to stick to beans and avoid all the other crap they put in the ‘energy drinks’...

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.

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.
