1. Based on the video,  the arguments are about energy drink being dangerous towards kids and adults.  It is said that energy drinks contain caffeine which is dangerous when consumed excessively.  Moreover, it also contain guarana which carry extra caffeine, taurine and sugar which can caused diabetes.

2. From my perspective,  energy should not be banned for Malaysian aged 18 and below. In fact, it should be banned at all. I am fully aware of the substances contained in an energy drink and i am sure it will not cause us harm if we consume it moderately. Even vegetables which contain a lot of nutrients can cause harm when consumed excessively. Therefore, it is our job to remind ourselves to take everything moderately. Not too much, not too less, just nice.

1. In my point of view, the federal government should follow the example of other countries is the weakest argument. We all know that each person has their own perspective. Rather than following the steps of other countries, the federal government should decide for their own country. Moreover,  the federal government was formed to make decisions for the country, not just follow other countries' steps.

2. I agree with the writer because it is proven that there is no harmful substances contained in an energy drink if consumed moderately. I believe that if someone got sick due to drinking energy drink, it is their own fault for drinking excessively.

1. In my opinion, the weakest argument in the article is that the federal government should follow the example of other countries regarding the banning of energy drinks. I believe that each country has its own data and statistics about their citizens from the ministry of health and government should refer to that information before making some new legislations.

2. Personally I agree with the writer idea on no regulation on energy drinks. For example, the writer emphasise that the government should not refer to other countries to make some new legislations. I believe that energy drinks do give advantages to some people who are working days and night, students that stay uo late and also for the driver that has a long ride to their destination.

1) Based on the video, they are arguing either the energy drinks are appropriate for children and adolescents and should never be consumed or not. This is because they are worried about the amount of caffeine contain in the drinks and their effects to the children. However, it is said that the caffeine contain in most of the drinks such as coffee, soda and even chocolate are much higher than that in energy drinks. It is also especially dangerous to the children with chronic disease such as ADHD, diabetes and heart problem. Other than that, they are especially worried about the sugar contain in the energy drink because high amount of sugar can lead to a chronic disease as diabetes and obesity.

2) I think at least for now the energy drinks should not be banned because they can be very useful sometimes when it is take in a correct amount and for an appropriate use. However, if there is an abuse of uses of the energy drink, it should be banned immediately in order to not bring harm to the children and to keep them safe.

1. Based on the video, the discussion says that it is not appropriate for children and adults to take energy drinks due to the amount of caffeine in it that can be lethal to them. In 2011 a report from Academy of Pediatric says that it will cause harm to them and recommend that adults can have not more than 400 milligrams and children no more than 100 milligrams. Caffeine in the energy drinks alone are actually present in a small amount however caffeine is not the only ingredients in it and a lot of additives are added such as guarana, taurine, ginseng, l-carnitine, and sugar. These additives also have caffeine in it for example guarana has double amount of caffeine in its seeds. For sugar, it is undeniable that its amount in energy drinks are a lot and can lead to obesity and diabetes. After some research, the experts warn that it is risky for kids with heart problem, ADHD or diabetes to take energy drinks.

For sugar, it is undeniable that its amount in energy drinks are a lot and can lead to obesity and diabetes. There are 2 things that are still in discussion which are the ages and the reaction between all the additives in energy drinks. After some research, the experts warn that it is risky for kids with heart problem, ADHD or diabetes to take energy drinks. This resulted in the banning of the drinks in some countries and American Beverage Association came up with voluntary guidelines for labelling energy drinks.

2. In my point of view, Malaysia should ban energy drinks for those who are under 18. The consumption of sugary drinks in Malaysia has also increased dramatically over the past 15 years, in tandem with rising incomes. More than one third (36%) of students have more than the recommended limit for adults. They take sugary drinks at least once a day, and the average daily sugar intake for adolescents has increased from seven teaspoons in 2012 to 10 teaspoons in 2017 (World Health Organization , 2019). Besides, Malaysia' rate of obesity and overweight is the highest among Asian countries with 64% of male and 65% of female population being either obese or overweight (World Health Organization, 2019). By banning energy drinks for Malaysians under the age of 18 can help to over come this problems and lead to a better health for them.

1) In my opinion,  I strongly disagree with the fact that the panel of health experts called for a nationwide suspension of sales of energy drinks to minors. This is because as a student myself, there are time where I am in need of energy drinks such as after the sport training, after staying up and studying for a long time especially during exam week. So I do think it is the weakest argument out of all.

2) I totally agreed with the writer because as long as the children take the drink responsibly and in correct way, there will be no harm for them and the drinks do not have to be banned for minors.

1) The arguments mentioned that energy drinks are really bad and will cause harm to the kids and teens, so it is not recommended by American Academy of Pediatrics in the year of 1997. Energy drinks contain caffeine that literally can kill people if they consumed high doses of caffeine. The adults shouldn't consume more than 400 mg of caffeine per day and children should avoid consume  more than 100 mg of caffeine per day.  Caffeine is not only the ingredients in energy drinks. There are also other harm ingredients such as guarana, taurine and sugar. Guarana contain double amount of caffeine and sugar will cause diabetes for people.

2) From my point of view, energy drinks should not be banned for Malaysians under the age of 18. I do agree that energy drinks can cause harm to people, but if we consumed it with the correct amount, it should not be problems and it is your responsibility to take care or your health. There are also others foods that can cause health problems to the kids such as junk food, candy and others but it is not banned by the government. Furthermore, energy drinks do have its own advantages for certain people likes athletes for them to boost their energy or for those who wants to stay up at night for study. Parents also should advice or educate their children about the energy drinks to prevent them from taking it with high amount of doses.

1)  I personally think the weakest argument is when the parents should decide what their children should eat and what they should drink. I do believe that most of the parents really strict in educate their kids to consume energy drinks responsibly. For those children who are under the age of 6 years old would be easy for the parents to control them as they are only staying at home. For those who are already get into the school, it would be tough for the parents because mostly kids would like to explore new things and also easily being influenced by their surroundings. It will be good if the kids practice what their parents taught them, but some of the children will ignore their parents advice.

2) From my point of view, i personally agree on what the writer said. There will be no harm if we consumed energy drinks with the correct amount. Energy drinks do really give advantages to certain people such as athlete for them to boost their energy. The energy drinks should only be banned when people discover the proof that it is harm.
