An Energy Drink with Cannabis That Is Completely Legal Causes Controversy in Australia

Energy drinks help us to stay awake at times when there is a lot of work and pressure; they stimulate our body and help to activate it. There are those that prefer them to coffee or Coca Cola because they are more powerful, taste delicious. Some people even drink them at all times of the day.

Australians are lucky, because since recently they can to enjoy “Cannabis Energy Drink”, an energy brew prepared using hemp seed extract. However, despite the fact that it is completely legal, it was not long before controversy arose, with people who are reticent about cannabis products and poorly informed about this specific product.

Many of them are scared parents that have called for the product to be removed from shops out of fear that their children may see it. They complain that it may help to normalise cannabis among young children and lead them to think that it is normal to find it in any supermarket.

However, the product does not contain THC, the psychoactive component in marijuana, the only aspect that should worry those responsible for a minor. On the other hand, the consumption of hemp seed extracts is allowed in the country as it does not produce any type of effect. Also, the sale of the drink is already restricted to children, as well as diabetics, pregnant women and anyone else who is sensitive to caffeine.

“Cannabis Energy Drink” is marketed as an alternative to the traditional Red Bull, Burn and Rockstar options, as a high quality drink with a new and distinguished touch. It contains caffeine, taurine, and vitamin B and allows consumers to obtain each day a wave of energy to get the most out of it.
