Jolting numbers on caffeine

Caffeine is not included in the Nutrition Facts panel on food labels because it is not a nutrient. It must be listed as an ingredient if it is added to food, but the amount is not required.

The U.S. government doesn't have recommendations for children's caffeine intake, though the American Academy of Pediatrics suggests a limit of 100 mg a day for adolescents. Here are amounts of caffeine in milligrams of common beverages:

Monster energy drink (16 ounces): 160

Starbucks Frappuccino (9.5 ounces): 115

Amp energy drink (8.4 ounces): 74

Mountain Dew (12 ounces): 54

Snapple (peach, 16 ounces): 42

Coca-Cola (12 ounces): 35

Hot cocoa (8 ounces): 9
