LOS ANGELES , April 27, 2012 (Industry Intelligence) – A bill has been proposed in New Brunswick, Canada, that would require retailers to post signs warning customers of the potential health risks of consuming too many energy drinks, The Canadian Press reported April 25.

The bill, which was introduced by the Liberal Opposition, has not yet been debated by the legislature.

Last fall, the Canadian federal government announced that it was imposing new rules on energy drinks to limit their caffeine levels and require that they be labeled with a list of ingredients.
