FDA Gives Warning to Alcohol-Energy Drink Makers
Christine Gregoire, the governor of Washington state, acted quickly to ban Four Loko after several college students ended up in the hospital as a result of drinking too many of the high-energy, high-alcohol-content beverages at Central Washington University. The FDA is also being pro-active and has issued a warning to manufacturers of four similar energy/alcohol drinks and has given the manufacturers fifteen days to stop making the drinks altogether.
