Paxton Launches Probe Into Celsius Energy Drinks Over Caffeine Levels and the Dangers to Children
· Texas Border Business
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton has initiated an investigation into Celsius Holdings, Inc. due to concerns over the caffeine levels in its energy drinks marketed to children and teens. The investigation follows the tragic death of a 17-year-old from Weslaco, Texas, whose family claims excessive caffeine consumption from Alani Nu, a Celsius product, contributed to her death. Each 12-ounce can of Alani Nu contains 200 mg of caffeine, a level deemed dangerous for minors. The investigation will assess whether Celsius misled consumers about the safety of its products, potentially violating Texas trade laws.
