Original review summary

The review says it found no credible evidence that Sting or other energy drinks cause impotence, and notes that the cited study on heavy consumption did not establish causation. It says Sting’s label cautions for children and pregnant or nursing women are precautions related to caffeine and sugar, not evidence of reproductive harm.[S1]

Additional context

The review reports that Sting’s packaging says the drink is “not recommended for children” and includes similar cautions for pregnant or nursing women. [S1]
