dc.description.abstractBackground: In Poland, consumption of energy drink among young people has changed significantly following the introduction of a ban on sales to minors. This reg-ulatory measure was intended to address growing concerns about the health effects of high caffeine consumption among teenagers. The aim of the article was to assess the effectiveness of the ban on the sale of energy drinks to minors and to examine the level of knowledge of young people about the harmfulness of consuming these drinks. Methods: The study was conducted in 2024 in Poland after the introduction of a law that prohibited the consumption of energy drinks among minors. The study group consisted of 999 people aged 15-17. Results: 52% of the respondents declared that they consume ED, and 68% reduced their consumption after the introduction of regulations prohibiting sales to minors. This type of drink is used more frequently by men, and age and frequency were also positively correlated. The factors that most often influenced the choice of ED are price, taste, package size, caffeine content, composition, or recommendations from friends. Conclusions: Although a large percentage of minors still drink energy drinks, new regulations have had an impact on limiting the amount of ED consumed.
