the European Union or any country in the world<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The controversy about the banning of Bang Energy Drinks results from the&nbsp;<strong>intense rivalry&nbsp;<\/strong>between <strong>Bang<\/strong> and <strong>Monster Energy Drink.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2019, Monster Beverage Company <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/news-release\/2019\/09\/09\/1913115\/0\/en\/Bang-Energy-Scores-Another-Legal-Victory-Against-Monster-Energy-in-Europe.html#:~:text=On%20September%205%2C%202019%2C%20a,Bang%20Energy%20and%20its%20products.\">sued<\/a> Bang for <strong>false advertising<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some say the case is prompted by the entry of Bang in the European market, which would undermine the stronghold of Monster Energy Drink in Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Monster argued that Bang falsely advertised that it contains &ldquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.medicalnewstoday.com\/articles\/318174#Benefits-of-L-arginine\">L-arginine<\/a>,&rdquo; which is an amino acid that increases muscle growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>The Court <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/ml.globenewswire.com\/Resource\/Download\/e97f46a2-38b9-49ee-baa4-0d8547b7b3b8\" target=\"_blank\">ruled<\/a> that Bang EU should make <strong>two relabeling changes<\/strong> on the packaging of Bang Energy Drink. First, it should not prominently mention the word &ldquo;L-arginine&rdquo; <strong>on the lip<\/strong> (or top) of its cans in Europe. Second, it shouldn&rsquo;t use the &ldquo;<strong>muscular arm pictogram<\/strong>&rdquo; on BANG Energy&rsquo;s website for its European products.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>All of these changes happened because Bang contains only<strong> minimal traces<\/strong> of L-arginine, which aren&rsquo;t enough to prompt huge muscle development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another interesting thing to note is that the main featured ingredient of Bang, called &ldquo;<strong>Super Creatine<\/strong>,&rdquo; is only limited to US manufactured Bang Energy Drinks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Creatine is<strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/monster-energy-announces-bang-energy-drinks-banned-in-european-union-300850426.html\">not authorized<\/a><\/strong> in the EU as a food ingredient, so the Bang Energy drink variants in the EU aren&rsquo;t supplemented by creatine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to take a look at the <strong>difference<\/strong> between Bang and Monster Energy Drinks, make sure to watch this clip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=bR3VAtj4oDY\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>MONSTER VS BANG.

Bang Energy is on the higher side of caffeine content, which in turn can cause caffeine addiction. Additionally, Bang Energy when over consumed can post a couple of health threats, including insomnia and jitters.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) states that consuming up to 400 milligrams of caffeine per day is perfectly safe. Some folks can&rsquo;t handle caffeine, while others enjoy chugging 6 or 7 cans of Bang every day. Bang is a threat to these individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Does_Bang_cause_heart_problems\"><\/span>Does Bang cause heart problems?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A blow to the chest can result in cardiac issues. Heart palpitations are a common side effect of caffeine consumption, and given that Bang contains a significant amount of caffeine, consumers may have additional symptoms in addition to their heart palpitations.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It has long been understood that consuming an energy drink will increase your heart rate and put you at risk for arrhythmias such as atrial fibrillation and tachycardia.
