Created by controversial YouTubers Logan Paul and KSI, the drink has sold out multiple times in the US and the UK, and now it is here in Australia — but ...

It is available for purchase in Australia through retailers and bottles have a disclaimer saying it's not suitable for children aged under 15 "We have a very confused general population on what good sports nutrition actually looks like. - Prime Energy: A carbonated drink that contains 200mg of caffeine per 355mL can – double the Australian legal limit of caffeine per 100mL. The match was broadcast on Sky Sports Box Office in the UK and Ireland for a fee of $US9.95 ($18.30) and sold 216,000 pay-per-views, according to Sky Sports. While the ingredients vary slightly from flavour to flavour, the two main ingredients in Prime Hydration are filtered water and coconut water from concentrate. "Usually, when you see benefits of BCAAs, it's from people that are quite sick in hospital, but the evidence of their effectiveness from a sports repair and recovery perspective is pretty limited when the person's total protein intake is adequate," he said. A Woolworths spokesperson told the ABC the retailer would not be giving a statement in relation to stocking the Prime sports drink, as other energy drinks and sports supplement products that they sell also have similar warnings on their labels. On Prime's official website it states; "PRIME Energy is not recommended for children under the age of 18, women who are pregnant or nursing, or individuals who are sensitive to caffeine." It allows the maximum amount of caffeine in a drink in Australia to be 32mg per 100ml. Despite being caffeine-free, bottles of Prime Hydration — the one available in supermarkets — have a disclaimer on its containers, saying it's not suitable for children under the age of 15, pregnant or breastfeeding women. The health concern for children is less about the Prime Hydration product and more about the Prime Energy drink, which is technically not sold in Australia, but can be bought from third-party sellers. The Prime website says it's not suitable for under 18s

He was showing all the kids and they wanted a piece of it". The confected rarity of the product? They just want the bottle. My son has taken a couple of tiny sips in the meantime, not wanting to believe Prime actually tastes like crap. And that's the nub of it. He had a sip in the car. The fourth supermarket. It's like the holy grail of the playground. With the prodding of my son, I asked, how about Prime Hydration? Prime is also the official drink of UFC which promotes mixed martial arts. Not the number.

The 'Hydration' version of the drink is available at major supermarkets but Felicity said there is a lot of interest in the caffeinated version as well, not just among children, and that's why she stocks it online.
